A tariff of 10% is due on items arriving from the UK. (If items are made in other countries a higher tariff applies, but, 99% of my items are made in the UK) To make things simple I will collect the tariff fee through a small increase in shipping costs on American orders and pay it on your behalf. This should mean your parcels arrive as normal without delay at customs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThank you for looking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"The Secret Parlour Vintage Clothing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56384944636279,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0767\/5474\/7688\/files\/F0A8360B-022E-496A-AFAE-396E44C42925.jpg?v=1766088079","url":"https:\/\/thesecretparlourvintageclothing.com\/products\/vintage-1980s-size-6-size-12-black-velvet-bottle-green-acetate-taffeta-strapless-ballgown-party-dress","provider":"The Secret Parlour Vintage Clothing ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
