IMPORTANT NOTICE ON TARIFFS
As you know, we currently have a 145% tariff on Wheels of Time production made in China. The tariffs on products made in China are unsustainable for a small business like Wheels of Time and in broader sense will really damage the model railroad industry.
Our current project with RailSmith (N scale baggage-express cars) which will be wrapping up in May sometime will have a line item on our invoice called "tariffs" that will be collected before we ship those products. At the moment, we don't know how much that will be and how much Wheels of Time can actually absorb. We like to minimize the pain to you as our loyal customers and yet remain in business.
We will temporarily hold our up coming shipment at our factory in China until this trade war gets resolved or tariffs come down significantly.
Unless the situation drastically changes, Wheels of Time production from China will be curtained until tariff situation becomes economically feasible again.
However, our 3D printed and resin cast products will remain in production since they are made in here locally.
Sincerely,
Matthew Young
