IT IS FURTHER STIPULATED AND AGREED that the entered values of the merchandise involved in the case listed is [sic] equal to the price at the time of exportation of such merchandise to the United States at which such or similar merchandise was freely offered for sale to all purchasers in the principal markets of the country from which exported in the usual wholesale quantities and in the ordinary course of trade for exportation to the United States, packed ready for delivery, .and that the foreign values of such or similar merchandise were no higher.

On the agreed facts, I find 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 here involved and that such values were the entered values.

Judgment will be entered accordingly.
