this is from Allen , to all our friends : Russian shuttle traders account for nearly a quarter of imports August 23, 1999 MOSCOW - AP World News via NewsEdge Corporation : Russia's shuttle traders importing goods privately through train stations and airports accounted for nearly a quarter of the country's imports in the first half of 1999, the Foreign Trade Ministry said Friday. Such traders brought in 23.2 percent of Russian imports in the first half of the year, or dlrs 5.3 billion dollars of goods. Most of those imports, worth dlrs 3.9 billion, were from nations outside the former Soviet Union, the ministry said. The small traders, shipping nearly entirely through the country's railroad network from exporters in Turkey, China and other countries, accounted for 10.2 percent of Russia's trade volume. The ministry provided no further details, beyond saying shuttle trading has declined as a share of the total trade volume.
