Import Tips
• Document as 'arcade machine parts - unfinished monitor' to prevent classification as complete consumer electronics
• High risk of CBP scrutiny for collectibles; include buyer letters specifying restoration use
• Check state-specific regulations for leaded CRT components even in unfinished form
