    If you're planning on bringing it into the US, you don't.

    It's illegal. And the faux seal skin looks damned close, anyway - so much so that I've called the vendor back once just to make sure it's faux.

    Guess you missed the sealskin thread, eh?

    A reputable dealer (for example) should have mentioned upfront that sealskin wouldn't be allowed into the US. Try for a partial refund, or return the sporran you received for a full refund.
