I did not get a Tariff fee on my Rogue & Gambit Art Print I ordered back in December and paid off January 17th.

It had been delayed for months and just shipped April 30th, so I guess I'm really lucky.

I believe art prints are made in US, so no tariffs.

Art prints are all done domestically, so they should never be getting tariff charges...in theory

Well that is good to know, thank you.

Hello There!,

I placed several orders from Sideshow and only one got the 6% tariff charge for an item with no notice. I only noticed because I was reviewing the order.

The other item on the order was not applied a tariff. looks like under what they said it only applies to order shipping in as of now, not for items they already have in stock.

The other order i placed last week and that one was not subject to the tariff, even if it had an item that is not in their warehouse. and since one already shipped, it would be interesting to see if they apply it to the other item.

Got to see on other pre-orders during this period how they manage that.

Welcome! Good to know, thanks for the details. Would you mind specifying which items did/did not have the tariffs?

Thanks

it was for a Darth Maul Concept Art Sixth Scale figure

I'm not sure if this should maybe be a topic in itself as I was not notified of this change by SS,
but posting this in case it might be helpful to someone and in hopes not more of us make the same mistake so we don't suffocate the CS.

I went to Sideshow website today as I usually have some POs on a 'Payment plan' and I often make my payment earlier using 'Make next payment now' option.

Today I've noticed that there is 'Pay towards balance' option instead, so I used it only to find out the entered amount (instalment amount) was just deducted from the total amount
and remaining monthly payments were reduced, but I was still due for the current month. (they fixed it)

I contacted SS regarding this and the 'Make next payment now' option can now be found under 'Modify payment plan'.
The last time I looked at that option it was only for a 'change payment date' but now there are more options within it.

If I understand this correctly, I think that added flexibility of further paying down a piece but not necessarily making the full next installment payment is nifty.

@chonralda: It sort of is but it's not making the next payment, so if you use it and you have any remaining balance it will charge the card on that same month again,
it just lowers overall amount, and that is fine but they have not informed anyone of this change and option and how it works and that should've been done via official email.
It sort of messed up my payment plan now and payments are not registering in my order as they should, so I'm in talks with them for a second day already.
