IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that on or about the dates of exportation of the said merchandise, such or similar merchandise was not freely offered for sale for home consumption to all purchasers in the principal markets of Western Germany.

Upon, the agreed facts before the court, I find and hold that export value, as that value is defined in section 402(d) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. § Í402 (d)), is the proper basis of value for the drawing instruments and cases in issue and that said value is as set forth in the tabulation above.

As to any other merchandise, the appeals are dismissed.

Judgment will issue accordingly.
