Setting aside the moral implications about breaking the law, getting caught simply isn't worth the risk. You can lose your stuff, have to pay up to 80% duty, and even have your car siezed. Link

Never mind the fact that your name is now on file. No more getting through customs quick; you will be searched every single time you cross the border again. All that to save 5-10% extra on the clothes that you just saved 25-90% buying in the States.
