Novel way round customs.....

Just heard that there are companies now set up to get wines into China from Hong Kong and get around the customs. By law a person is allowed to carry two bottles over the border from Hong Kong (Fine wine capital of Asia) into China (the market everyone wants to get into). The way shipping companies are getting round this is to drive the stock to the border with trucks full of "workers" take the wines out of the cases give two bottles to each person and the OWC (original wooden case) to someone then walk across the border and put the whole thing back together. Seems crazy but such is the "thirst" for fine wine that it appears to be worth the hassle......
