It seems Trump has started charging tariffs on small packages now, and as US does not have capacity to handle collecting the tariffs, so is expecting tariffs collected at source!
That really is not how it works. But...
It sounds like Royal Mail are going to do a pre-paid tariff option (I am amazed they are bothering). Sadly this probably means I'll end up creating a load of Tindie carriage rates to US for each tariff amount, as I don't think Tindie do a shipping rate that includes a percentage of goods price (maybe they will - I have asked them).
Just to be 100% clear to anyone in the USA who is confused, this means YOU ARE STILL PAYING THE TARIFF, it just becomes part of the shipping cost to the USA.
I feel sorry for RM trying to keep up with the changes, and we all feel sorry for people living in the USA.
