Not speaking on behalf of William Wood-Write, but as an owner of another business (Yarn Shop), with an online presence, the changes to the tariffs and more specifically, the de minimis being suspended, it's more challenging for us in Canada to ship to the US. Not that we don't want to, just difficult to calculate the Tariffs. Right now, it's pretty much a straight 10%, but the eComerce Sites aren't great to work with to calculate this at time of purchase.
Using Square, i've got our businesses site setup, to apply the 5% GST and then the 10% US Duty (but done in one step, applying 15.5% to cover both). It's a right mess on the book keeping side and accounting... to ensure we pull off enough cash to pay the taxes and duties.
We are giving it a try, as we miss our American customers greatly. Just wish that the political figures on both sides of the border would play nice. Pretty sure it's not hurting them all that much, but anyone on either side of the border with their own small business are likely being hurt by all this.
