    Looks like the blanket idea might not works so well...

    "The coalition stated that qualified importers who regularly import the same plant product from the same sources should be able to file a blanket Lacey Act import declaration for each such product. Earlier this year, the USDA began a pilot programme that is testing the feasibility using a periodic blanket declaration with subsequent reconciliation reports. Enrolment is limited initially to entities currently participating in one of U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s expedited border release programmes."

    and...

    "As a result, the department is seeking comments by 2 November on including the following HTSUS headings in enforcement phases that would be scheduled to begin on or after 1 September 2010: ... and 9504 (articles for arcade, table or parlour games)."

    I wonder if it also applies to individuals that import tiny amounts like a Cell from YJA?

    What is up with this law!?

    but if you test and determine what wood is in one machine, more than likely they all will be that way. Then you use that with every shipment you do - x number of machines with y kind of wood.

    The chance that they're going to pull your machines and take samples of all the wood to try to find out if you forgot something is probably slimmer than you think. But losing an entire shipment because of this would be expensive so people are afraid to take the risk.

    Give them (exporters and importers) time, they'll find a way, they always do

    Thanks Dattia, Sorry it had to be on this thread but sometimes our leaders can just.... Why don't they just stop every ship and plane that imports stuff here and say "no thanks, we'll just shribble up and die do to our lack of brain matter, we screwed ourselves a long time ago with this problem and we just want to make it go away by taking away everything everybody else wants"

    Who votes these people in anyways?

    Kurt told me the same little rumor, but he said it was because of the bugs in the wood. The US didn't want those nasty Japanese bugs to infest over in the US. LOL. Kurt is full of smoke. Good prices, Great Service, Good selection, just not a very friendly personality.
