Customs valuation was redetermined using the supplier's export declaration and accepted where the importer did not produce alternate purchase documentation; the Tribunal upheld the enhanced assessable value and differential duty.

In mitigation, the redemption fine and one specified penalty were reduced while all other penalties were set aside. The summary addresses valuation, misdescription/misdeclaration, confiscation, and selective remission of fiscal penalties as the operative effects.
