    Who here has imported shipments large enough ($1,000+) to require full customs brokerage via USPS / NZ Post? If they will broker these goods, knowing full well what they are, then clearly the "don't care" policy goes beyond simply "don't ask".
    Me (4 times) and again a non issue. Courier left everything on my door step

    If anyone wants samples I can put up what I have written on the forms and an example letter.

    Seems so, Brownells seem happy and had no issue with me not providing an import permit and just a letter saying i didnt need one. Of course the fly in the ointment may yet be passing through NZ customs. Currently asking Brownells if I can get special orders on some things like lower build kits sans pistol grip.
