Riesling, not Reisling :thumbs:  But not a sweet one. The good ones are dry.

Mea culpa; proofreading is important! I have the proverbial sweet tooth. My wife and I had dinner last weekend, and the server brought me an IPA and Laura a raspberry daiquiri, even though she had asked what IPAs they had on tap 5 minutes earlier. And no umbrella!
I post waayyy too much

Have any of you guys bought anything from Taiwan lately?

Was wondering what the tariff and fee charges were.

Thanks

FWIW, the tariff on my $2K Porsche 356 front disc brake conversion parts was $300. The package weighed 65 lbs and was labeled "automotive spare parts".

300/2000=15%
Wasting time on 2T forums since the dawn of the internet. '89 TDR250, '23 300xcw, '24 Street Triple RS, '56 Porsche 356A, '88 325is '89 560SL. Too many toys.

I am expecting something similar. My parts from Taiwan showed up in 6 days with no delays and no request for me to pay a tariff prior to delivery.

Not from Europe but paid a 15% tariff for my brake conversion parts from China. I whole lot less than what I paid last time I ordered CNC'd stuff.

I wonder if anything will happen when you file your taxes next year if you have unpaid tariffs?

UPS and FedEx have added refund request instructions on their websites. just fyi.

im gong to absolutely look into this when I get home.

Thanks for the heads up. I have a set of Givi bags inbound from Italy. I'll be interested to see what tariff and fees get added.

And what really sucks is, the float valves I got from Yambits were junk, and I had to end up buying OEM Yamaha valves at an extortionate rate, to keep carbs from leaking....
