I have had to research this question a number of times so I thought I put the answer here for everyone 
. Question is regarding the import duty for various electronics (or other items) into US. Here is the government document stipulating the fees. Every time I go looking for it, takes me an hour to find it!

For example, "vintage" tape recorders are completely exempt so go ahead and import that R2R!
The document can be hard to read. The key data is in tables and you have to find a general description of what you are looking for.
