- For a small radio and some CDs it's probably not a real
- problem -- I've never had Customs ask about small
- electronics.

- For larger items, you can register them with Customs in
- advance so you have gov't-certified proof the items were in
- the U.S. already. It's free and doesn't take long -- they
- just note the serial numbers and stamp the form.
