Ethnographic Arms & Armour - View Single Post - USA tariffs that apply to import of ethnographic items.

Hello,

I have noticed in the past two weeks that a few auction houses have begun to explicitly state that they won’t ship to the US. I just tried to order a rare book from a Bulgaria bookseller, but they informed me that Bulgaria Post is not accepting packages with US destinations.

As a buyer, I am limiting my search, for now, to sellers who state that they ship from the US. On the plus side for me, the tariffs (a nuisance IMHO) may translate into less competition from my non-US colleagues in EEW collecting. Hasn’t happened yet.
