Jlcpcb and tariffs

[Robert]

So is that 50 designs, or 50 individual PCBs? Because the latter is stupidly worse.

That's 50 individual designs.

The JLCPCB cart has always had an issue with large orders, it glitches and crashes and sometimes requires contacting customer support to recover... I suppose the solution was to just cap it.

Not a huge issue and probably wont affect most folks, but something to be aware of.

Now I have to go decide what to pull out of the order....

Excellent plan, that worked.

I completely forgot to send them anything for an estimate, but has anyone tried ninja PCB or whatever their name is?

Or gotten a bid back from any fabs in India?

Just a heads up to those who were worried about this from a personal/DIY standpoint:

1.) Here is a full order I placed yesterday:



Problem was I forgot some wah boards.

2.) Here is the small order for 5 boards I placed today with the Global Line/Direct Long Boat shipping:



No import fees on that although I did not use the same shipping option so i wonder if a lot of this is being driven by companies like UPS, FEDEX, DHL, etc.

Hope this helps...

Ooooh i pretty much always use the slow boat anyways. I’ll have to put together an order later. Before all this though i could order 5 boards slowboat and it was like 4.50$ shipped, paid a .50 cent paypal fee for the transaction. My state has no sales tax.

Eagerly awaiting your experience

I've found that the slow boat option still shows up within 2 weeks anyway (I'm west coast of Canada though), I never use other services

First and only time I did slow boat was early March. Package still in customs. I’m sure it’s a fluke but I will have to use FedEx next time and bite the bullet

Alas i got distracted between catch with the kiddos, beer and ribs. By the end of it drawing some traces seemed like the last thing i wanted to do. Hopefully tomorrow

Yea oregon. Pretty much always 2 weeks, ive gotten it in a week before (green boards) and i think just dumb luck.

I assume they will destroy it at some point? Not sure what to do. No contact from JLC or any shipping company or customs

 

[Stickman393]

Its like, your package was goofing off in class. Or something.

Shipping company, then JLC if they’re no help.

Big legal development on this front—the U.S. Court of International Trade has blocked the tariffs. The opinion is here for interested folks. The upshot of all this is, per the court's order:

"In accordance with the court’s opinion of this date, it is hereby ORDERED that Executive Order 14193, Imposing Duties To Address the Flow of Illicit Drugs Across Our Northern Border, 90 Fed. Reg. 9113 (Feb. 1, 2025); Executive Order 14194, Imposing Duties To Address the Situation at Our Southern Border, 90 Fed. Reg. 9117 (Feb. 1, 2025); Executive Order 14195, Imposing Duties To Address the Synthetic Opioid Supply Chain in the People’s Republic of China, 90 Fed. Reg. 9121 (Feb. 1, 2025); Executive Order 14257, Regulating Imports with a Reciprocal Tariff to Rectify Trade Practices that Contribute to Large and Persistent Annual United States Goods Trade Deficits, 90 Fed. Reg. 15041 (Apr. 2, 2025) (collectively, the “Challenged Tariff Orders”); and all modifications and amendments thereto; be, and hereby are, declared to be invalid as contrary to law; it is further ORDERED that the operation of the Challenged Tariff Orders and all modifications and amendments thereto be, and hereby is, permanently enjoined; it is further ORDERED that within 10 calendar days necessary administrative orders to effectuate the permanent injunction shall issue; and it is further ORDERED that each party shall bear its own costs.
