So the US tariffs are doing things again!!

If folks are unaware, due to the proposed removal of the de minimus exception ALL PARCELS ENTERING THE USA NO MATTER THE VALUE will be subject to import charges from the 29th August 2025. These are paid for by the CUSTOMER and at this time there is a lot of uncertainty as to how much these will be.

In light of this, myself and a lot of other non US based small businesses are being forced to CEASE TRADING TO THE US FROM 22ND AUGUST before the changes come into effect on the 29th due to the hilarious lack of clarity and the very short turn around.

This obviously sucks not just for small shops like mine, but for the US based folks who are going to inevitably miss out on being able to get cool stuff. I'm so very sorry this is happening (blame the tangerine tinted buffoon and his latest temper tantrum), and I am keeping my fingers crossed that this blows over and the current administration realises what a dumb idea this really is.
