Props to whoever this company is. This is one of the best bits of customer service I've seen in years.
This should be the standard lol. Who you dealing with, the mafia?
I mean technically it's not the company's responsibility. If you've ordered something and they've sent it in a reasonable time frame and it just gets charged extra on entry. It's not the company putting the price up, it's your own government, so you don't really have a recourse.
I may don't know how the law works but I believe (at least in my country) if you agree on the conditions you can't pull a Darth Vader and alter the conditions after signing/ordering and paying.
Now if there is a clause that states otherwise this may change.
But I agree, at least they are open and upfront with it.
Doesn't matter on their end. If they wanted to they could ship it and let it get held up by customs with a demand to pay the tariff to release it.
They are not changing anything. They are warning the customer import charges wil incur if the purchase proceeds. They gain nothing and stand to lose a sale.
Import duties are not always part of the agreement.
They didn't change the rules, there is now a charge by the government on it getting delivered, not by the company.
I would change "not always" to "practically never". Every e-commerce site I have ever used warns you that you are responsible for import duties if shipped internationally.
The doctrine is called force majeure. Most contracts have a force majeure clause.
If an external factor makes a contract impossible as agreed, the contract can be made void under force majeure. This is very common, and suddenly applied tariffs would likely be covered by a force majeure clause because neither party were responsible for them.
