Thank you, David.
The above may all be true generally speaking, but I just wanted to clarify, as documented in my original post on this matter, that finished Pernambuco products are exempt. (See CITES Appendix II, Annotation #10. Also, see the details of the 2007 statement issued by FWS. There are links to both of these in my original post.)
I wasn't sure if you just wanted to share this information as a general rule for Appendix II, or if you meant to imply that it also pertains to finished Pernambuco products.
