- you're well over the legal limit if you're stuffing your suitcase. -- nm - loosilu Nov 20, 08:13 7
  - you can bring as much as you want, it's not illegal, you just have to pay duty. -- nm - El Fandie Nov 20, 08:20 1

  - Over the legal duty-free limit. You can import more if you pay the import tax, and if it's 4 euros a bottle, it might not be much -- nm - Roger More Nov 20, 08:19 4
    - if the wine is that cheap, JD is losing money by throwing out his clothes. -- nm - loosilu Nov 20, 08:20 3
      - Depends what the cost of the wine is in the US. -- nm - Roger More Nov 20, 08:21 2
        
        JD doesn't *drink* quality alcohol. -- nm - loosilu Nov 20, 08:22
        
        Or the value he would get from drinking it - which as we know, is a lot. -- nm - Roger More Nov 20, 08:22
