I see on most of the major news networks that the UK and other European nations won't ship packages to the USA due to tariffs.

A UK dealer told me, yes, this is true. He can't send boxes or padded envelopes with cards. But he can insert cards individually in letters.

However, one of the big UK card companies has said this is not true, that they can send boxes

Anyone know ?

I think the news report shown below in the link says it all especially with the new tax applying as of today. Ebay sales or lack of them will be interesting.

Goods under £800 were exempt from import duties. Now,under the new rules, they attract same as larger parcels. Anything other than a letter will attract the charge. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvg3yjnq5zeo

It's a shame, but now Americans will see what we have had to put up with for years with VAT and import duty set at £18.00 since God's dog was a pup!

And the handling charge
