Will a 20% tariff apply to OOTP price?

[Edward ohare]

New tariffs are coming on foreign products. OOTP is a Germany based operation of a South Korean company. Definitely a foreign product.

Putting aside the conversation of whether or not tariffs will be enacted as promised, the WTO has had a long-standing moratorium with regard to tariffs on digital goods. Until or unless that moratorium expires in the future, the likelihood of tariffs being applied to OOTP or other digital software is near zero.

Weren't tariffs in place for a part of his last presidency? Price of OOTP hasn't gone up in years I don't think.

Actually the price of OOTP increased this year.

Concerning WTO rules, the US historically ignores international organizations when it feels like it.

Here's an interesting article about companies asking orders of imports be delivered earlier so they can beat the upcoming tariffs.

I wonder if OOTP would offer pre-purchase now on 26 through 29?

Your main concern about tariffs is what it may or may not do to the price of OOTP?

On this board we can only talk about tariffs in relation to OOTP. Your attempt at a demeaning comment is noted.

This post is nothing but a scare tactic. No, there have never been tariffs on digital goods and just because you probably don't like the outcome of the election, which this is what this post is coming down to, the talk about politics or even trying to be sly about a political conversation on these forums is against the rules and trying to fish people into some kind of political debate over this topic is sad.

Enforce that rule on the type of content I posted and most of the regulars on Talk Sports will be banned.

Additionally what I posted directly relates to OOTP. Compare that with, for example, the post about the greatest play in baseball history is Rick Monday grabbing a flag. That post didn't even really relate to baseball.
