On the agreed facts, I find and hold the export value, as that value is defined in section 402(d) of the Tariff Act of 1930, to be the proper basis for the determination of the value of the merchandise involved, and that such values are the appraised values, less the additions made under duress to meet the advances by the appraiser in similar cases covering the nondutiable so-called f.o.b. charges for inland freight, insurance premiums, storage, hauling and lighterage, petties, etc., added by the importer on entry.
Judgment will be entered accordingly.
