    Taub, Hummel & Schnall, Inc. v. United States
    Entry No. 710422.
    (Decided February 21, 1956)
    
      Brooks & Brooks for the plaintiff.
    
      Warren E. Burger, Assistant Attorney General, for the defendant.
   Wilson, Judge:

This appeal for reappraisement has been submitted for decision upon the following stipulation of counsel for the parties hereto:

IT IS STIPULATED AND AGREED by and between the parties hereto, subject to the approval of the Court, that the merchandise and the issue in the Appeal to Reappraisement enumerated above is the same in all material respects as the merchandise and the issues decided in the case of United States v. Nelson Bead Co., C. A. D. 590, and that the record in said case be incorporated and made a part of the record herein.
IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that the appraised value of the merchandise covered by the Appeal to Reappraisement enumerated above, less the addition made by the importer on entry because of advances by the Appraiser in similar cases, is equal to the market value or the price at the time of exportation of such merchandise to the United States, at which such or similar merchandise was freely offered for sale to all purchasers in the principal markets of the country from which exported, in the usual wholesale quantities and in the ordinary course of trade, for exportation to the United States including the cost of all containers and coverings of whatever nature and all other costs, charges and expenses incident to placing the merchandise in condition, packed ready for shipment to the United States, and that there was no higher foreign value for such or similar merchandise.
IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that the case may be submitted on the foregoing stipulation.

On the agreed facts I find the export value, as that value is defined in section 402 (d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, to be the proper basis for the determination of the value of the merchandise here involved, and that such value was the appraised value, less the addition made by the importer on entry because of advances by the appraiser in similar cases.

Judgment will be entered accordingly.
