Should I expect to pay Tariffs on Tayda Orders?

Non-Tayda, but... YAYYYY $17 shipping/fees on a single $15 pcb from Canada now. Absolutely not DEFX's fault of course, they have to lump it all in. What a truly awesome, necessary thing to put your citizens through! 🇺🇸

An australian is generally up about $22usd for 3 or more $8 pcbs from PPCB, and we dont even have that tariff mess.
(Not a complaint Robert, just an observation)
 
Tayda’s pretty much my last resort now. CE Dist, StompBox Parts, ❤️ My Switches, Mouser, and DigiKey are my go-tos for pedal and amp parts now.
oooh, I didn't even know about CE. I'll have to remember that.

I tend to place a couple very large orders a year and honestly the biggest advantage of Tayda for me is how fast I can navigate their website. The idea of needing to order all my basic caps and resistors from Mouser sounds awful. SBP is also great - they get all of my knob business and anything they have that Tayda doesn't.

I'm as annoyed about tariffs as anyone, but I guess I've assumed that even with the tariffs, Tayda would still be my cheapest option. Even if their price advantage got erased, it seems like if I had to get my Tayda order from three other places, the additional shipping might be worse than the tariffs.

Also a factor is that whenever I feel like someone in authority is trying to manipulate me into a particular course of action my instinct is to do the opposite.

CE Distribution looks to be yet another name for Antique Electronic Supply/Amplified Parts... same exact inventory as far as I can tell. AES and AP are finally merging, I wonder if CE will remain.
 
You guys are being a bit mean. Trump is trying his hardest to make America great again and all you can do is bitch. I was about to say "but what I don't understand is..." then realised it was superfluous. He has imposed 10% tariffs on Australia but the US has a "trade surplus" with Australia. And I put that in inverted commas because the term trade surplus is essentially meaningless. It doesn't mean countries are "treating you very badly". You don't get nothing in return for that money.

The stupidity is immense. Breathtaking. If he keeps this up the entire world is definitely heading for recession. Brilliant!
