Got an email from restoration design -
To all our valued customers, President Trump has signed an executive order imposing a duty of 25% on all parts produced outside of North America. This will include all parts produced in Europe, China and Taiwan. This order does not affect Canadian parts at this time. If you anticipate needing parts, call us or look at our website to determine which parts this executive order will affect. To avoid the 25% duty rate, parts will need to cross into the USA prior to March 23rd, 2018, when the executive order will take effect. |

Reading between the lines, they purchase material that will have the 25% tariff?
I do not see on their website where they source their raw stock sheet metal so if buying Chinese steel they will be paying more for it. correct? |
