Counsel for the parties have submitted the above-enumerated appeal for reappraisement for decision upon stipulation, reading as follows:
1. That the merchandise and the issues involved in the above-entitled appeal for reappraisement are the same in all material respects as those involved in United States v. Gitkin Co., A.R.D. 132, and that the record in the cited case may be incorporated in the record herein.
2. That at the time of exportation of the merchandise herein the prices at which such or similar merchandise was freely sold or offered for exportation to the United States to all purchasers in the principal markets of the country of exportation, in the usual wholesale quantities and in the ordinary course of trade 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, were the invoiced ex-factory unit values, net, packed.
3. That the involved merchandise was entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after February 27, 1958, and is not identified in the Final List published by the Secretary of the Treasury pursuant to the Customs Simplification Act of 1956 (T.D. 54521).
On the agreed facts and following the decision in the cited case, I find export value, as defined in section 402(b), Tariff Act of 1930, as amended by the Customs Simplification Act of 1956, to be the proper basis for the determination of the values of the wood articles involved and that such values were the invoiced ex-factory unit values, net, packed.
Judgment will issue accordingly.
