You've got about 3 days for them to get processed by customs. Even if they arrive tomorrow, if customs is delayed and they don't process until Friday you'll get to pay a processing fee and a big pile of tariffs.

Did the same yesterday, bought myself a Epomaker Ajazz ak820 from Amazon, hoping it ships from the US Warehouse before EU retaliates with even more tariffs

What's this about?

Trying to get as much Chinese keyboard parts as possible before the tariffs ends the party.

Edit: autocorrupt

This is so funny to me, I'm imagining a bunch of people going to China for the pure purpose of grabbing keyboard parts.

That's Alibaba for me, essentially.

I’ve already noticed many electronics are “not available” anymore already…
