1. That the merchandise covered by the Appeals for Reappraisement enumerated in the attached Schedule “A” exported from Japan consists of inflatable rubber boats, knapsacks, and campers packs and that at the time of exportation thereof to the United States, the market value or the price at which such or similar merchandise was freely sold, or,, in the absence of sales, offered for sale to all purchasers in the principal markets of the country from which exported, in the usual wholesale quantity 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, were the invoice unit prices, plus inland freight, insurance premium from factory to on board, storage, hauling and lighterage and miscellaneous charges as invoiced, net packed, but excluding three (3%) per cent buying commission.

2. That all the merchandise covered by the Appeals for Reappraisement was entered subsequent to February 27th, 1958.

3.
