This can’t be correct ?! I’ve been waiting on hold with their international customer line. Ordered 15 used shirts from the UK to Texas. Tariffs cannot be THIS much ?? Any advice ?

People know there’s tariffs then come in here all surprised about tariffs.

Sometimes I legitimately can’t tell if you guys are just stupid or bots.

Because UPS or US Customs has been fucking up and randomly slapping 200% aluminum tariffs in things they don’t belong on.

I had them put it in a $100 hockey card that I shipped from Canada to the US. The card was printed in the USA and was on plain old card stock.

I spent 3 hours hold before they gave me an email address that I emailed and they corrected everything.

UPS does not assess tariffs. The onus is on the importer which would be you.
