I just got a text message from UPS about import duties. I am in Texas, USA.
The are charging me 367.87 !!!!
This is the breakdown:
IMPORT CHARGES
NOTE: the total value used for calculation of all Duty-based fees is 0.00.
Government Charges: 356.87
Brokerage Charges: 11.00
Freight Charges: 0.00
356.87 / 1400 (2 Z9 minis at $600 each + shipping fees) = about 25%
Looks like US folks are getting hit with the new Trump tariffs on Chinese goods.
Ugh. Is anyone facing the same issue?
That doesn't make any sense. Trump tariffs target raw materials and semi-finished products. Z9 Mini is a fully-built Chinese miner, which should not get the 25% tariff.
