The dispute arose when testing revealed the goods were actually "refined paraffin wax," leading to a differential duty and penalty. Despite the Revenue's arguments based on oil content, the Tribunal found inconclusive evidence to support misdeclaration, emphasizing the lack of crucial evidence for valuation comparison.
