    Honestly; I’m impressed they both messaged you and gave you options.

    Usually you wouldn’t find out until the mailman is demanding payment for the package he’s holding hostage in front of you.

    Props to whoever this company is. This is one of the best bits of customer service I’ve seen in years.

    I cant wait until the European/Mexican/Chinese parts that I order from the USA that always arrive with a customs declaration of Origin:USA … starts biting me in the ass because of their ignorance and Canadian Customs tries to hit me with Tariffs that shouldnt apply.

    the better option is to just stop doing business with American shops. and thats what I’ve chosen, the USPS and Canadian Postal service are both such shitholes, that I have legitimatley recieved stuff from the UK, Poland and Denmark faster than I’ve recieved stuff fom Illinois and Iowa , in the orders I’ve made this year. For small things too.

    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.

      There’s only one thing businesses hate more than tariffs and that’s uncertainty. They would be happier with the tariffs being definite, than this maybe existing and maybe not existing on a almost daily basis.

      Because even if he gets rid of the tariffs, he’ll try this again in a few weeks once he’s forgotten about all of the push back and has randomly decided that Canada is still shipping drugs into the US. Because fentanyl can’t be made in the US, everyone knows that.

        He’s stupid but not that stupid. He doesn’t even care where any drug originated from. He surely slotted “hot-button drug name” into place and blamed Canada because he wants to put pressure on them.

        One of the few things in his entire life Donald has learned and been able to apply is the US Republican playbook for blame-throwing.
