It is not that simple. Even if somebody declares a Nokia N9 as a US$50 gift, the Argentinean or Brazilian customs will problably research and put the market value of the product.

I think the best possible way to contribute to Ceci is donating by PayPal, etc. So he can use the money to buy a N9 in Argentina. See this topic, "Help needed for CepiPerez.... [Sad story]".

Did you try to call your or their post office? because I'm pretty sure that you could ask the package back if they didn't pay to the customs.
That's why I bought insurance for it, so I'm going to complain to USPS. If through some miracle I get it back there needs to be a loophole to get this device into his hands. I read on a customs law page that even if I was to claim it cost 10 dollars they would be the wiser, call the bluff, and figure out fair market value. Anyone have ideas?

Sorry for spamming the thread, but after reading the whole thread, I'm curious, what happened to the phone? Did cepiperez receive it? or was it returned to justadude? or as the dave said, is border patrol using it?
