They believe the marked value if it is credible. Postal inspectors aren't completely stupid, but they also don't know how much you're prepared to overpay for boutique cranks compared with superior mass produced ones. Note that it is inducing a consigner to understate the value of a consignment on the customs declaration that is an offence,. i.e. the accuracy of the Customs Declaration is your legal responsibility, and if they think it is wrong and that you have engaged in dishonest conduct in order to evade duty, you're on the hook for the fines and imprisonment, not the sender.
