Intro: Tariffs
We understand that no one likes to hear about price increases, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience these changes may cause. Unfortunately, these adjustments are the direct result of recently imposed government tariffs, which have significantly raised the cost of imported goods.
Please know that we are doing everything we can to limit the impact as much as possible and keep prices fair. That said, some changes are unavoidable. We truly appreciate your understanding and continued support during this time.
