So even if you never left the USVI, when you leave the US Virgin Islands for a US Airport, everyone goes through customs and immigration at the airport? That's what was confusing me.
It just makes things little more difficult leaving but easier when arriving home.

"Each U.S. citizen is allowed to bring $1,600 worth of items back from the USVI without having to pay duty."

So Airport Customs is used to determine if any additional duty is due.
