[QUOTE="GreyLord, post: 9628273, member: 4348"] I'm trying to explain it. I am at a loss of how to explain it anymore clearly than I did before. I have no idea how to explain it more clearly...I'll try to rack my brain, but I seriously don't know why I can't be understood??? I guess I'll start with the video which you don't want to watch. Part I - The individual got a call. It said his items on the docks were going to be destroyed immediately if he did not pay the tariffs. He did not expect tariffs and had paid months ago. He paid the tariffs (I think). Then he got a call saying it was a mistake and he didn't actually owe the money. Part 2 - I have investments and try to listen what is happening. The story above is not alone. I am hearing that similar stories to what this individual related is happening elsewhere and causing a great deal of chaos and indetermination. (Edit: These are not direct stories, as I am not talking to the shipping departments themselves. most are coming from PR folks or others that are related to the business, or in some instances, rumors on the floor about what is happening in order to try to prep for what's next and whether to buy or sell. Hence, I have not heard any of these directly myself, so I've only heard what others are talking about and reporting they've experienced or seen). It makes it hard to know what to do in regards to the markets as many have different takes on how to handle it. (for example, because they have no idea how long the tariffs will stick around, or how it will work, or how much it will be eventually, and it will effect the price of the product, pre-orders for the New Switch 2 coming out have been postponed in the US as of today. The price previously stated was probably made before the tariffs were stated and that could probably also be affected). I have not heard of any products being destroyed as of yet, only threats of things occurring. The ripple effects are just starting. If this isn't clear enough, I'm sorry. I am at my wits end trying to explain it. [/QUOTE]
