We have some news to share regarding international shipping.
The international trade war kicked off by the American administration is currently in an extreme state of flux, leading to an adversarial state when it comes to fulfilling international orders from our location in the United States. The suspension of the de minimis exception has led to reciprocal duties by destination countries.
Frankly, we don’t have a full picture as to the full impact of any given day in the trade war, and this continually changes on a day-to-day basis as more countries make changes to their duties for American shipping. Currently, we have had to suspend all international shipments due to the continuing trade war; expect our eligible locations for shipping to change as new developments occur.
Shipments and fulfillment to other United States locations are largely unaffected, though a price hike for domestic postal shipping has affected operations and decision making for United States fulfillment somewhat.
We continue to monitor the situation where possible, and work to be more creative when it comes to our physical game support.
Obviously, this is not optimal for us and the Transformers TCG community, and we look forward to a return of norms for both production and fulfillment. If you’re an American and you’re not a fan of trade and shipping disruptions that get in the way of what you enjoy, support politicians and policy that do not include or uphold tremendously damaging international tariffs.
