Noting General Rule of Interpretation 3 (b), of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTSUS), the essential character of each of the sets is imparted by the telescope.

The Z12 telescope features a 12-inch aperture and two included eyepieces, 32mm and 9mm, a Dobsonian stand and a laser collimator. The Z10 telescope features a 10-inch aperture, and has two included eyepieces, 32mm and 9mm, a Dobsonian stand and a laser collimator. The Z8 telescope features an 8-inch aperture to capture light and has two included eyepieces, a 2-inch format 30mm eyepiece and a 1.25 inch format 9mm eyepiece, a Dobsonian stand and a laser collimator. You state that the telescope and the laser collimator are shipped in the same box.
The telescopes are sold with a laser collimator, which is used to ensure rapid, accurate optical alignment of the telescope. The articles are the ZHUE023 Zhumell Z8 (Z8), the ZHUE024 Zhumell Z10 (Z10) and the ZHUE025 Zhumell Z12 (Z12) Dobsonian Reflector Telescopes.
