The George Bailey? Well..."Look at you. You used to be so cocky. You were going to go out and conquer the world. You once called me "a warped, frustrated, old man!"

It's not really about paying the invoices its about what is declared on a officially submitted Commercial Invoice (CI)to customs--typically after the goods have been paid for. For example, once the order is complete, regardless of what was paid or what the terms were, a CI must be submitted to customs in China and in the US to ship the goods. So, the CI that is sent has a MUCH smaller value per item than was actually paid. Taxes and duties out of China and into other countries are based on this CI--so tons of money can be saved if the CI's are lower value. Good question.

Cash over the table? Regarding your example #3:
