No. R68/8.
reappraisements R60/1030, etc. (New York).
B. Schwartz & Co. and Aut Customs Brokers, Inc., v. United States,
[MAJORITY]
In accordance with stipulation of counsel that the merchandise and issues are similar in all material respects to those involved in International Packers, Limited v. United States (56 Cust. Ct. 636, Reap. Dec. 11147) and International Packers, Limited v. United States (52 Cust. Ct. 472, Reap. Dec. 10696), the court found and held that export value as defined in section 402(b), Tariff Act of 1930, as amended by the Customs Simplification Act of 1956, is the proper basis for determining value of the cured boneless beef exported from Argentina during the period January 1, 1959, through December 31, 1959, described on the invoices of the entries covered by these appeals to reappraisement and that such value is the appraised value, less the Argentine retention tax of 8190 Argentine pesos per net metric ton.
