Please feel free to refer all your Canadian friends to me when they are faced with a notice of ascertained forfeiture or a criminal charge on the importation with a false value. My fee will be cheap in comparison to the consequences, but my rate is $400C per hour, plus GST and PST --no exceptions.
I can only tell you that the Canadian Border Service Agency (customs, or the Canadian BS Agency , as we call it) does do internet searchs in order to obtain comparable market values. It's always interesting what and who they'll find when they type in "N172" for example.
Yours in universal care,
Max
