TL;DR I didn't make it in time. Fuck you Trump!
Edit: For those asking, this was https://www.irvwpc.com/ Please support them if you can.
It is inane that one of the options is "just hold on for a few days and see what happens" and that it is a viable option at all. Government is in shambles.

C'mon, it writes itself.
Edit: OK, #trumptariffs. Don't try to drink and spell kids.
From the covfefe guy I wouldn’t be surprised if he misspelled himself.

Send him back to the 40's where he belongs. Preferably to the front lines of Leningrad in 1941. Let's see how much he likes Russians and fascists then...
It writes itself? Is that why it has a spelling error?
Good thing there isn't hundreds is miles of unprotected border to snuggle across.
Question: what would happen if lots of people swarmed right next to the border without actually crossing?
We'd have to snuggle with our fellow Americans. That would be weird.
Hmmm… sounds like I need to be spending more time at the border. Question: do we get to choose who we snuggle with or is it like a first come first served situation
You get to pick, but of course it needs to be consensual. But Canadians are very friendly and free with their hugs.

That's a lot of snuggling
Quite a bit. With increasing prices in the US, lots of people sneak up north with snuggling in mind. You do need to be careful at the official border crossings though. Snuggling is generally frowned upon.
Its a little bit of sexy snuggling that could happen anywhere and any time!
Props to whoever this company is. This is one of the best bits of customer service I've seen in years.
I may don't know how the law works but I believe (at least in my country) if you agree on thr conditions you can't pull a Darth Vader and alter the conditions after signing/ordering and paying.
Now if there is a clause that states otherwise this may change.
But I agree, at least they are open and upfront with it.
Doesn't matter on their end. If they wanted to they could ship it and let it get held up by customs with a demand to pay the tariff to release it.
The doctrine is called force majeure. Most contracts have a force majeure clause.
If an external factor makes a contract impossible as agreed, the contract can be made void under force majeure. This is very common, and suddenly applied tariffs would likely be covered by a force majeure clause because neither party were responsible for them.
They are not changing anything. They are warning the customer import charges wil incur if the purchase proceeds. They gain nothing and stand to lose a sale.
Import duties are not always part of the agreement.
They didn't change the rules, there is now a charge by the government on it getting delivered, not by the company.
I would change "not always" to "practically never". Every e-commerce site I have ever used warns you that you are responsible for import duties if shipped internationally.
Solid boundaries, clearly communicated. Giving the customer a choice without hurting their own bottom line. I agree. Excellent handling of the situation.
