Anyone traveling from Russia to States or have advice on shipping?

[Boeris 0]

I am purchasing a rig from a guy in Moscow, we're having major issues getting it through Russian customs. They value the rig with all new componants, when it's not. I guess there is some law that states you can not export over a certain value amount unless you have some sort of Russian business license. Anyhow, he's going down to customs tomorrow for a 3rd try. But we're running out of tijme because he's leaving the country and can't take it with him in about 10 days.
If anyone has any advice on how to get this through customs I would greatly appreciate it. OR if you will be traveling from Moscow to the States anytime soon and wouldn't mind helping me get this rig, I would be stoked and much beer would be owed! :-)

Thanks,
Justin

Put it in a box, Call it a back pack and list the worth at $100.

There is no way that wont work...seriously.

In the Navy, you can't put your hands in your pockets but I was always told not to put my hands in my pockets by people with their hands in their pockets. Kinda funny huh?

Might be overkill, but the guys I use at work (and have used going into Moscow) are Rock It Cargo - give them a call see if they can help...
