I ordered some in November after tariffs went into place. (Picked up another Lx that needed a refresh). Impex allows you to declare your own value, so I marked all 4 at $25 and paid around $23 for tariffs.
I also bought two hub assemblies (separate transaction) and did the same thing there to test the theory. With shipping and tariffs I came out less for the two than for 1 if ordered online from a state side dealer. Bearings were included
Sorry I missed this. Yes in the US East coast. I paid a $28 tariff. DHL asks you to declare the value of the order so go easy on yourself.
I'm also at the 10 day mark - still in processing with no further info sent from impex or shipper.
They have updated their website, citing snow storms in Japan, causing some delays. As someone who orders from Impex almost monthly, i would say a month from start to finish is typical turnaround.

got the email near midnight that the globes got to the warehouse.
Paid shipping stuff and now awaiting shipment.
It took about 2 weeks for my order to change from Processing to In-Stock - Shipping with DHL only took 2 days from Nagoya to Denver, CO
I also got the same notification last night that the items were at the warehouse. When you declare value with impex at the time of shipping payment, is that the value DHL uses for tariffs?
I was just thinking about that yesterday. Planning on placing an order soon. This would help.
And now shipped.
Yes
Yes, what you enter in Impex is what DHL will use
And delivered.
2 weeks 6 days from when I started the order on the 23rd.
Globes ($439.90) +Shipping ($128.28) +Tariffs ($82.40) May have "declared" too much) = $650.58 Still cheaper than a single globe from here in the USA.

Does anyone happen to know how DHL, UPS, and FedEx bill you for the tarrifs? Do you receive an email from them? What payment method do you use.
Also what form of payment do you use when ordering parts from Impex, Amayama, and Partsouq?
Thinking of placing my first overseas parts order soon to hopefully save money, even with increased shipping costs and tarrifs.

I received an email and text from DHL saying an import duty is due and the parcel will be returned if not paid within 5 days. A hyperlink to pay was included. I paid via credit card.
I'm looking to get a new set of globes from Impex as well, but right before I placed an order I saw a warning message about them not being able to ship pressurized gas components. I wanted to see if anyone had/has had any issues with shipping the globes from Impex since they are pressurized to my knowledge?
They had that warning when I got mine too. I think its meant more for things like spray cans and not our globes.
Now just get you a fan clutch fan and get those in!
I didn't get to do this to California. I just received a shipment on Tuesday. I got some tie rod ends, ball joints, rack bushings for this and my tundra, upper and lower radiator hose, a thermostat and thermostat gasket, Total from Impex was 262.32, DHL charged 137.00 for shipping and I got hit with a 57.00 tariff that DHL just sent me that had to be paid within 5 days or the shipment would be returned to sender. total was 456.32. It was still a solid deal compared to the discounted Toyota Dealer I use in San Diego as total would have been 615 bucks and I'd have to pick it up. Still worth it. I ordered 1/21 and received it on 2/11 if this helps anyone out there.
