There have been no further announcements from Australia Post. I am monitoring Australia Post, Etsy and eBay and will move as required and when able. If I need to sell minders and physical product on marketplaces to overcome these fees this is an option, I will investigate those posibilities.

The Trump administration announced a global shut down of exemptions on low value items from tariffs and duties. This means that all incoming orders from Australia for the next six months will have an $80USD fee applied to it at the border along with applicable taxes, duties and customs fees. After the six month period, it will move to a 10% rule but will require Duties to be Paid by the SELLER. Previously all applicable fees, charges etc were paid for by the CUSTOMER at the customs border in the US. This creates a very complex system as each US state also has varying tax rates, and it may be very difficult to deploy a system as a small business, that can properly collect all these fees, charges etc.
We are monitoring the situation and will post updates as they come to hand. Our priority is to continue to serve you in the best possible way, and to as soon as practicable reopen to US trade.
