USA tariffs that apply to import of ethnographic items.

Thank you for your update Detlef.

Since my previous post to this thread I have been doing some testing of the entire international parcel post system.

I have found several deficiencies that militate against the vast bulk of international parcels sent from Australia to anywhere. These deficiencies have resulted in correspondence with the CEO of Australia Post, my local member of Parliament (who has been requested to refer the matters addressed to the responsible federal member of parliament), and the US Customs & Border Patrol.

I really do not expect any positive results from any of this, but at least it lets the people who are supposed to make things work know that there is somebody out there who is not asleep.
