Parcels & UK Customs Examination
By John A. Tuttle

Hi All,  Just a few more tidbits of information about orders sent to
non-US customers.

I have a customer in England who places an order about every two weeks.
We have used the US Postal Service (USPS) and UPS in every case.  All
of the parcels have contained less than 20 rolls.  Thus far, he has not
been charged any customs fees or import duties.

We elected to send small orders (less than 20 rolls) after reading some
information in the MMD Archives which indicated that (for reasons which
remain unexplained) UK Customs seems to let these small orders go
through without charging any fees.  Go figure!

Musically,

John A. Tuttle
