Doge (China to USA) Tariff

I really wanted to make a move to a Doge 7 Mk2 tube DAC. But the policy to charge a 25-percent import tax because of a multi year political game means I'll be looking for something else. The dollar amount comes to an extra $500 give or take. Nope, won't support a bloated tariff. Plus, add about $275 for international shipping and there is just no way.

Yes- thank you Trump. We need more of these policies. I prefer not to support/fund our number one communist global adversary.

I have purchased a Doge 10 amp and two Denafrips DACs  .  There were no import duties on any of them.  I don't remember the details, but the paperwork on one of them indicated a value of $77.00.

These are all shipped direct from China and routed through Hong Kong airport.  

If I could get a pair of the Doge Mono amps I would do it but they're no longer available.
