Tayda packing and shipping

[darwin999]

I placed an order on Tuesday, arrived today. No enclosures. $213 with $6.45 shipping including tariffs and fees via DHL.

With only $6.45 for shipping, you definitely avoided tariffs - you just got in under the wire.
With your total, tariffs would have been another ~$40 on top of the shipping.
So you won the lottery on this one!

Yes I did!

And now have enough parts to build like 7000 pedals!

Just checked what’s reorder would be, $53 shipping tariffs and fees….

I just put my order together, and it was $20.25.

Last year I had a $20 order I paid $4 for shipping. I was expecting the tariffs to be between $4-6 (depending on if they say the electronics are from China or Thailand), so hoping my cost would be $8-10.

Turns out shipping/tax is $16.88, so a bit more than I thought, and a lot given a $20 order. Maybe I should hold off until I either I need more supplies or the tax law changes yet again, it's not like I don't have a big backlog of other things needing building.

Thanks all. It was just parts, no enclosures much less any printing, so seems like it's out of the norm. Come to me, my resistors!

If it were my order, I’d fill out a ticket. Goto Help Desk (menu link) and fill out a ticket. It may have been overlooked. If it was painted enclosures, I’d say wait, but since it is just parts, I’d inquire about it. I suppose it is possible they are waiting on a part but that’s never happened to me.

I did notice that UPS is no longer a shipping option as of a few days ago. Shipping prices are through the roof. I wonder if they are working some things out with UPS first. Not sure. All I know if my order of enclosures took a few weeks and it shipped DHL even though I initially chose UPS. That is how I discovered UPS was no longer an option with them. (Hoping that is a temporary thing because DHL is way too expensive.)

Actually, when I loaded the cart with more items the shipping increased. Usually, the opposite would happen. This is as of a few days ago. For example, a $400 order had a $200 shipping option only. Not sure what’s going on.
