Customs valuation challenges the use of an English-recorded statement as voluntary where the deponent did not understand the language, rendering that statement unreliable; electronic invoices recovered from the proprietor's laptop were inadmissible after retraction and lacked contemporaneity with imports; local resale invoices could not be disregarded without testing their probative value; re-determination of transaction value requires particulars, notice and consideration of commercial factors (quantity, model/grade, contractual terms, discounts, relationship); absent identification of identical goods or adequate particulars, valuation adjustments, differential duty, confiscation and penalties were unsustainable.
