I need to send a three DVD boxset (sealed) to the U.S. to complete a trade. Just wondering what value should I write down on the value declaration form in order to have my U.S. contact NOT be charged for customs, duties, taxes or whatever
In addition to marking it as a gift, my options are:
1. Actual value of the DVD's....say around CDN$50-$60
2. A small amount...say $15 or $20 (what amount do customs starting charging the recipient?)
3. Zero since it shouldn't matter. They may get suspicious about this one.
Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
BTW, this is my first big U.S. trade. All my other ones were singles and therefore, not a problem.
Dave
