I would like to import closeout Licensed merchandise from Orient.
Would there be a problem at US customs ?
Please advise ..

***Well, possibly if you do not have a license for such
merchandise...assuming that what you bought you did so at export prices, as
opposed to buying 1000
michi mouse dolls at Disneyland Tokyo. In every major city there are
mountains of "illegal" goods brought in, so who is to say.

More to the point, why bother with this? There is no shortage of this stuff
in USA... one "closes out" only what one can no longer effectively sell...so
you will succeed where the expert failed? Where and who are your customers?
Where is the repeat business so critical to building wealth? And as you
noticed, there is the element of illegality in it all. Finally, I can pretty
much
guarantee, whatever price you get overseas, someone else will get it much
cheaper.

Another possibility here is the factory has been in business 20 years making
"closeouts" for people who can be fooled into buying what they believe to be a
sure thing. People go looking for product in all the wrong places, cn't find
it, and settle for "designer closeouts." And of course when they get back to
USA, they end up at a swap meet right next to somebody with the exact same
closeouts, except the next door neighbor is still after 5 years trying unload
the goods.

There is no substitute for the product that is waiting within you...
