Saying about release is no exaggeration Glom HyunThe campaign was a boxboard game, a water shedding moment for the Tabletop Industry in 2017. Here was a high -imaginary physical product that weighs about 18 pounds. It had modular tiles and small plastic, maps and secret envelopes, all added to an experience to share 100 or more unique gameplay sessions with family and friends. Its innovations and its subsequent popularity changed the expectations of consumers for the Tabletop Games in the years after that, and it was the creation of such a game designer in which Indiana named Ishaq Childes.
Now the revised version of this game, which is titled Glom Haven: Second EditionChina has been effectively trapped abroad due to the Trump administration’s new prices. By Wednesday morning, the rate has historically increased from 145 % to 245 %, which is closer to doubling the tax burden of the publisher Cephalafir Games. This is not just a bill that the company can afford to pay.
“These rates are a scene on the Day of Judgment for the US Board Game Industry,” said Seallogir’s founder and the founder of Safegir. Glom Hyun On Wednesday morning, Polygon, creator Ishaq Childers in an email. “It is not economically possible to bring board sports to the United States at tariff rates, which is already starting to dry sales, which affects retailers and distributors, which I suspect will be much worse.”
In Chief Operating Officer Price Johnson, in An interview with CNN On Tuesday afternoon, the words did not defect. Johnson said, “We are not getting that product.” It is living there (unless something changes), and we will need to ax all our US sales works basically. “
Mathematics are serious. Combined data with CNN indicates that there are some 60,000 units of new Glom Hyun The shipment is now being packaged. This shows the cost of a $ 20 saffrofire to produce the data. 245 % tariff, which is tax on imported goods, means the cost of these units will be $ 49 More To import, the total cost of $ 69. It will cost $ 4.14 million a total of $ 4.14 million to bring the pre -manufactured products to the coast.
Played in a full pre -production after the game just earned in 2023 Slightly million more than 5 million On Bakark, but he was part of millions of campaigns that also funded the lines of two other related products, none of which have yet entered the manufacturing. In the past two years, less than the cost of other business works, it is easy to see that Trump’s prices can completely eliminate Saifulofire.
Johnson wrote to Polygon in an email on Wednesday morning, “145 … 245 …. 500 % – At this point we have been realistic to be realistic to make us import or sale.” “The message we are getting from Washington DC right now is that we should not plan to sell US sales this year this year. Or at least we should not expect when (perhaps) will resume.”
In his class on CNN, Johnson has been cautious that Saifulofer is not just a small business that is expected by Trump’s prices. Glom Hyun. If a new version of the game does not appear, it will also leave a hole at local retailers on shelves. Johnson told CNN, “They are not getting our products,” referring to more than 600 moms and pop retail stores here in the United States that he provides with the Cephalafire Games. “Their shelves are about to be empty.”
Cephalafir is not alone. In his class on CNN, Johnson said he was in touch with at least 60 other publishers, and that all of these brakes were taking place – even when the factory holidays overseas begin to accelerate. If all other publishers also have their delivery, they told CNN that local retail stores will face possible predictions and bankruptcy through holidays.
He said on the air, “Our entire industry (from these rates) has been hurt, and this is a sharp effect.”
Johnson told Polygon, the most surprising aspect of all this is that he has so far failed to reach his local Congress member, California Republican Kevin Kelly. He said the representative’s office has told him that the Congressman is no longer meeting his constituencies, he said. Other Republican behavior to filming Since Trump came to office in January. Polygon has arrived at Kelly’s office and we will update this story if we hear.
While the packing work Glom Haven: Second Edition It is not yet known in China, whether it is loaded on the boat for its delivery. Pre -production is underway for the highly anticipated line of gloming tabletop roll playing games and gloms of Haven Manchers. Children, for its part, hope. It is still time for him to protect the best version of his dear board game from entering the warehouse abroad.
The children said, “There is no limit yet, because the factory is still collecting all these copies.” “We are still working on a solution before needing to transfer the collected copies.”
What makes it more bothering it is the rich, always changing nature of the ongoing trade war that Trump started on April 2.
The children wrote, “We are open to preparation in the United States or other countries, but the infrastructure is not there. Encouraging the formation of this infrastructure will be the first step in the real plan to reduce the US (dependence) on foreign trade, not just punishing the industries who rely on it.”
He is even more upset and confused about the newly announced exceptions about prices, including phone and other electronics (but not video game consoles). He sees that they are offered to other companies based in the United States that, such as imports, titans such as Apple and Intel, but not on its small business-or hundreds of other small business bricks and mortar game stores that rely on their products to store their shelf and pay their mortgage.
Childers wrote, “Now (Trump) is creating exemptions for some industries that have a heavy influence and economic influence (…) It is even more clear that this is just a twist posting that leaves other industries like us as an unnecessary suicide attack.” “Shouldn’t he deal with China instead? Is it his ‘trade war’ with China or US business?”
