Important Shipping Update for My US Customers

Due to new US customs regulations, I’m currently unable to ship any orders to the United States. Starting 26 August 2025, Swiss Post will temporarily stop accepting postal consignments to the USA. This change affects all postal carriers worldwide and is unfortunately beyond my control.

I truly appreciate your understanding and patience during this time. If you have any questions or would like to be updated as soon as shipping becomes possible again, please feel free to contact me anytime.

Thank you for your continued support!

This is sad. I understand even DHL has halted shipments to the US. I hope this ridiculous tariff situation gets removed soon. It's not really going to help US manufacturers and just makes it worse for US consumers.

In this situation another big thanks to Daniel for his work! I have bought two nice horns and some accessories from him. All was better than described and that with a very okay price.

Don't hesitate to buy from swisstbone if you can!

(And as you may have guessed from my other post, the overall uncertainty also in shipping and tariffs situation is part of my considerations reg my own shop.)

Thank you for your nice word and your support!

Yeah, maintaining a business like this in these circumstances really is not fun. I'm in the happy situation to have another job paying the bills. But that other job could is also put at risk by the tariffs so... I'm not a fan of the US government right now.

I posted this in another thread a couple of days ago:

‘On Saturday, postal services around Europe announced that they are suspending the shipment of many packages to the United States amid confusion over new import duties. Postal services in Germany, Denmark, Sweden, and Italy said they will stop shipping most merchandise to the U.S. effective immediately.’

Don't think for a minute that our government cares. They believe they're winning some imaginary battle against "them."
