Can't you mark them as a "gift with no commercial
value"?

There is a fine line betweem "hobby" and "mental illness."

Subject: [VFB] Renegade Flies on the
way!
The Renegade Swap flies left Woodway, TX this morning.
Four countries and 18 states were represented. In case you've
never mailed flies internationally, here's A tip. Use Air Letter
Post and when filling out the customs declaration, (the green sheet),
for international mail, just mark GIFT and show a value of $5.00.
That's what I do with all my international fly swap mail. Never had a
problem.
Air Letter Post to Germany was $3.20, Sweden
$2.40 and Canada $1.35 As Lance said, don't list a high value on your
package. I think he said to show less than $30. I never list the
value at more than $5.00 on flies or any small item. A high figure, say
$30 or more will trigger Customs and they'll open the package and add all
kinds of costs and the guy on the receiving end will have to bear the expense
in order to claim the package.
Cheers!
