Shipping to our US friends.

With the new tariffs on all goods being shipped to the United States, the cost to ship to our US friends is increasing.  It is now required that tariffs be paid in advance, by us.  We would then collect those fees from our customers (you!).  We are required to use a designated online system to calculate and pay these fees.  That system seems to be a work in progress still, with changes happening on a daily basis, and a UI that is very difficult to follow.  As this settles and we can navigate through the process of calculating fees, we will contact anyone who has placed an order with a shipping address in the US, to let you know the cost of shipping and fees.  

In the meantime we have set up the site so that, if your billing address is in the US, you can place an order, but you will NOT be able to pay.  We will contact you once we can calculate the tariff fees.  At that point, you can choose to pay or cancel your order.  With this set-up, we don't have to deal with refunds, and, more to the point, the cost to us or you of issuing a refund.  So please feel free to place an order or to e-mail us with an order or for information.    

Looking forward to things being back to normal!
