    Yup! That's what happened to us! I think it was trip #4. At the last minute I threw in some tshirts from our business (cost us very little), still in the bags...oops #1. The customs lady asked if we had made any friends on our trips...big smiles & a yes we have...did you bring gifts...actually yes we did...oops #2 lol! So our bags get torn into and the lady wants the "value" not our cost, those were about to be some silly expensive gifts! Luckily the guy you pay had trouble reading the ladies writing so we ended up pay far less than she would have had us! Lesson learned!!!

    You were lucky sandy-girl!!
