Impact of tariffs and ending De Minimis has a lot of direct but also indirect impact. Like people no longer able to safely buy anything from abroad.

Just had my first package to the States returned due to excessive clearance delays. After three weeks, FedEx gave up.
So this is all fine.

Lilbits: AYN Odin 3 is coming, TrueNAS ported to ARM (unofficially), and International packages valued under $800 no longer exempt from US tariffs
The “de minimis” exemption that allowed packages worth $800 or less to be shipped duty-free to the US is officially gone. The Trump administration ended the exemption for goods shipped from China and Hong Kong earlier this year, and now it has also ended for items shipped from all other countries… at the same time that the US government has imposed tariffs ranging from 10-percent to […]

Trump #Tariffs Cause Chaos on Ebay as Every #Hobby Becomes Logistical Minefield
Buying cameras, games, skincare, watches, & anything else from #overseas just became far more complicated, slow, & expensive.
#Deminimis exemption, allowed people to buy things internationally without paying tariffs if items cost <$800, made it very easy and less expensive to get into #hobbies like film photography, retro video games, and vintage fashion, to name a few.

Pardon my language tonight, but the end of the de minimis exemption is really fucking me over when it comes to crowdfunding rewards for projects I backed months ago.

Lilbits: TypePad is shutting down, more companies pause US shipments, and Corsair launches a 14.5 inch, 2560 x 720 display
Corsair’s Xeneon Edge 14.5″ LCD touchscreen display is an ultrawide second screen for your PC that lets you view system information at a glance thanks to Corsair’s iCUE software that lets you place widgets for CPU temperature, media playback, and online information from a specific URL.
The display should be available soon for $250, which makes it considerably more expensive than other 14.5 […]

Lilbits: Google to block sideloading of apps from unverified developers
One of the things that has long set Android apart from iOS is that Android makes it fairly easy to install apps from sources other than Google’s official app store, providing users and developers with the opportunity to install apps that might not otherwise be available. Apple, meanwhile, has offered more of a walled-garden approach that it says leads to better security and an improved user […]

Postal services in Japan, Switzerland, Australia, the U.K., and many other European countries are suspending shipping to the U.S. because of a crackdown on small-dollar imports by the Trump administration. The "de minimis" loophole allowed goods worth less than $800 to enter the U.S. duty free, but President Donald Trump signed an executive order to abolish the practice, effective Friday. Goods coming into the U.S. thereafter will be slapped with country-specific tariffs, and many national postal services, plus DHL, one of the biggest delivery companies in the world, have decided it's preferable to avoid the confusion and stop accepting parcels bound for the U.S. instead. Here's more from NBC.

Well, that's exciting. No more de minimis tariff exemptions. I guess I get to change all my Etsy shop* shipping profiles this week. I don't get a lot of non-US sales - maybe half a dozen a year - but what a pain in the butt. #deminimis

Made a silly little comic to process the threats I'm feeling as a small business right now 😂 With all the crap information out there on de minimis this felt like the most productive thing to do!
Closing US orders for the foreseeable future today - bye bye Halloween, Xmas and possibly Valentines sales. My busy period is going to be a lot quieter I think! 😅

US customer announcement!
I will be closing orders on Wednesday 13th August for the foreseeable future due to Trump suddenly ending De Minimis.Until USPS can collect customs fees there is a risk you could be charged $80 per shipment, and I’m not prepared to take that risk on your behalf.
I will look at ways to reopen and update you when I can. Very sad times!

Well this could be business killing. Still trying to work out the particulars but looks like either a customs fee of 10-15% added to all orders when they enter the US or a flat rate $80-200 fee (!) per shipment to the consumer for first 6 months. And just in time for the busy Halloween/xmas period when I usually do well 😅 so if you’re in the US maybe order now to avoid future tariffs! Comes in 29th Aug. #trump #trumptax #tariff #deminimis #smallbiz #artist
