Certainly pricing them at bugger all in the customs declaration should do the trick. I can't remember exactly what Loren put on the dock that I bought off him but it was along the lines of either a gift or item valued at $5. To the naked eye it's four or five bits of wood glued together. Never paid a penny in VAT or import duties.

Unlike my first empeg which cost me over £100 in duty. The guy who sold me it valued it at it's cash value. In the end I got him to write to customs and say his mum put the wrong value on the box and it was really only worth £50. At which point they refunded the difference.
