As there seems to be a massive shortage of this at present it seems like a real niche market is there. I know most of the world would like to see Americans buy some, so as the demand would be really great would I have to pay loads of duty?

LOL... Yes I think there is... also the ability to understand sarcasm is in alarmingly short supply too.

The UK would offer to swap some of our abundant supplies, but they just don't have anything we want!

I would suggest every one should go to http://climatecrisis.org/ which refers to a very interesting docu-film made by Al Gore called 'An Inconvenient Truth' and shows how common sense does not appear in the USA version of English ... Climate change is here guys and as the USA pollutes more than the whole of Europe and much of Asia COMBINED then perhaps you will see a serious side to the original question raised .. the USA has no common sense at all ...

I think you'll find that it's THEY that would be doing the IMporting - and YOU would be EXporting it. Mind you, it's still a bloody good idea, especially as today, without any kind of warning, yahoo have joined us to the yankee site and we're no longer UK & Ireland. Standby for some REALLY dopey q&a's to crop up now.

Common Sense would be Duty-Free if sold just before the American Border ... just like liquior at the Airports. Good Luck ! :)

There is no need to import common sense, the U.S. already has plenty of it. The misconception that it needs to be be imported is by the one that lacks the definition of it.

There could be a problem here?
Having once bought it, would they know what to do with it?
Try selling courses in Irony, see if that takes off?

No, it's not exempt, but it is banned, they seem to think if one person got some then everyone would want some, and they would be overrun by importers

you could export it by the bucketloads, but they'd stil have to take in on board.. and realise the world isnt the nice cosy place they thought it was, or had been told it was..

and how likely is that to happen?

No. It is not exempt. They will tax you heavily. That is why most people leave it in a carrier bag at customs.
