If you want a better discussion about tariffs and their impact on the Boardgame Industry:

https://stonemaiergames.com/the-math-of-tariffs/

As others have said, avoid this article. It doesn't add anything meaningful to the discussion.



The two articles state different facts about the tariff situation:

- OP says 20% to 25% and states specific codes (and links to a government web site)

- the article to linked says 54% and contains no codes or links

Which one is correct?


> the article to linked says 54% and contains no codes or links

Correction: Jamie discusses “9504.90.6000” in the second-most recent comment below the post, likely as a response to this exact “no tariff codes, no knowledge” framing. (There could be other instances, I only skimmed briefly for it.)


Stonemaier games is the publisher of bestsellers like Wingspan and Scythe which have thousands of reviews on Amazon each vs TFA writer's game High Noon which has 8 review on Amazon. So I would trust that Stonemaier has more experience. Also when you type in the codes on the HTS website even the 9503 one the new tariffs aren't listed there or on any of the codes.


OK, glad I wasn't the only one who couldn't actually find the info the author said was on that site, using their link and the exact process they recommended.
