Hi all,
So I’ve been ordering boxes of books from Amazon Japan for a few years now, I’m studying Japanese so ordering books in Japanese from Amazon Japan has been so helpful until just now when I went to order a round of books and the shipping fee, which used to be like $30-$50 to ship to the US, jumped up to almost $100 USD.
I’m guessing this is to do with the US tariffs changing due to the current administration? Or am I missing something?
Just feeling quite stumped as I had like 17 books I was ready to order but I just can’t justify the shipping fee costing almost as much as the books now. (Yes even with the weak yen working in my favor and the books themselves being cheap)
