Why have I suddenly become American? What's happened to the Union Jack?

Perhaps using VPN?

You are correct, searching online, I found what you stated. A 35% Tariffs from Canada.

From China:

• For postal items: A tariff of 54% of the item's value or a flat fee of $100 is applied per parcel. Your shipper will likely select the cheaper of the two.
• For packages from commercial carriers: Shipments through private couriers like FedEx and UPS are subject to a 30% ad valorem tariff.

As all the kits that I got from China were shipped by FedEx or DHL, a 30% tariff will apply.

Well, it is what it is, but at least isn't a 50% . Please, let us know when the kit is available at your website. And then I do my numbers.

thank you, and have a great weekend!!
