    Pit Replica seat covers / tarriffs?

    Wondering if anyone has purchased one of these seat covers off of Ebay since the tariffs went into effect?

    (I AM NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR POLITICAL THOUGHTS ON THE TARIFFS!)

    I have heard stories of some carriers up charging the customers for the tariffs, (ie: adding additional charges such as document fees or processing fees). Anyone have any first-hand knowledge of buying a seat cover and paying the tariff? How much additional did you get charged?

    I haven't bought anything from this vendor specifically, but I did buy some brackets from CMSNL for my GS for $35 + shipping. And later I got a $32 dollar tariff invoice from fed ex because the pars came from the Netherlands. Also, my wife got a tariff bill from UPS for something similar.

          Their seat covers are great! I've probably used 5-6 of them and all were of very high quality.
