IMPORTANT NOTICE ON TARIFFS
In running Wheels of Time, I have encountered many challenges, but this one - tariffs is severely challenging my small business. I wish I could close my eyes and will disappear. As you all know, small businesses are hit the hardest because our margins are razor thin. Wheels of Time is no exception. For Wheels of Time to survive, I will have to charge for the tariff that is imposed on our models made in our factory in China. I know you nor I signed up for this. However, if I spread it out to all my pre-orders including my company with you too, it won’t be as severe.
Currently, the tariffs are at 30%. This translates roughly on the retail level to $7.35 plus per car on Wheels of Time special run of our N scale 70-ft baggage cars - both with RailSmith and the Canadian Roads. If you ordered 5 or more cars, every 5th car is tariff free from this charge - paid by Wheels of Time as a way of saying - thank you. The tariff charged collected will go directly to the U.S. Customs.
Thank you for those who already paid the tariff charge.
(See below "Tariff Contribution").
The arrival date is expected to be sometime after July 4th with release to all of customers in two weeks.
Be sure to make sure your shipping address and contact information is up-to-date!
I am personally grateful for your understanding and continued patronage of Wheels of Time. Hope to see you at the N scale Convention in K.C.
Sincerely,
Matthew Young
Wheels of Time
Ps - our 3D and resin products do not have tariff, since made locally.
