Have successfully received two shipments from CD Japan without delays since the imposition of tariffs.

Did you get a bill for the tariff after delivery?

FedEx emailed me a little over two weeks after delivery to have me pay. 

This happened to me with a recent order of WeJazz magazines from Finland. UPS delivered them without issue…and then sent me a bill two weeks later. The bill included a small tariff fee, in addition to a $14 “brokerage” fee…despite the fact that magazines should be exempt from these tariffs. Rather than have this bill go to collections, I went ahead and paid it. So…it really seems like there’s no consistency at all regarding what items the tariffs are being applied to.

I just received a few LPs from Japan via JapanPost/USPS with no issues. Marked 'gift' and not expensive albums anyway, just took a little longer than DHL, which I used with this seller prior to the de minimis horseshit. No customs issue or tariffs present. I'm still wary, but it worked out. The seller suggested that JapanPost was the way to go in order to circumvent tariffs.

I'll add that this was the first international order I'd done since August...
