New USA Tariffs: What They Mean for Your Doll Purchase at Silicon Wives
Posted on May 14 2025
Updated May 2025
At Silicon Wives, we’re committed to keeping our customers informed and confident in their purchases. With recent discussions around new U.S. tariffs and their potential impact on sex doll pricing, we want to provide clear, transparent information about what’s happening and how it affects you.
No Surprises for U.S. Customers
We’re pleased to confirm that our U.S. customers currently face no tariffs or additional fees upon delivery. The prices displayed on our website are fully inclusive, covering:
- Cost of the doll
- Shipping fees
- Customs clearance
- All taxes and fees
This means the price you see at checkout is the price you pay—no hidden charges, no unexpected costs. Our commitment to transparency ensures you can shop with peace of mind.
What If Additional USA Tariffs Are Introduced?
Should tariffs become applicable in the future, we promise to maintain complete transparency. Any tariff-related fees will be clearly incorporated into the listed price of our dolls upfront. We’ll handle all tariff payments directly through our shipping providers using Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) shipping, ensuring you’re never surprised by additional charges at delivery. Our goal is simple: the price you agree to at checkout will always be your final cost.
Note: This only applies to USA customers currently, other countries may still owe some import fees upon delivery according to their local customs.
Understanding the Tariff Impact
There’s a common misconception that the proposed 34% tariff would lead to a 34% increase in doll prices. This isn’t the case. The tariff applies only to the Declared Value of Goods (typically undervalued by factories), not to shipping costs, taxes, or customs fees, which account for nearly half of a doll’s retail price. If tariffs are implemented, we estimate the price increase per doll to be in the range of $150–$250—a manageable adjustment compared to what some might expect.
New Shipping Solutions In Development
Brands and factories are already coming up with innovative shipping solutions to minimize the impact of tariffs and keep your purchase price low. One example is the Jinsan factory (which produces WM Doll, RLSD, YL Doll, OR Doll, AngelKiss, and JK Doll) and the Lusandy Doll factory have introduced a new shipping solution to keep costs down.
Starting now, Jinsan will offer FedEx shipping (12–15 days) with all tariffs and fees prepaid. This means:
- No extra fees at checkout or delivery/customs
- No price increases on dolls
For those who prefer faster delivery, UPS Express (7–10 days) is also available. Please note that with this option, customers will be responsible for any tariff or import fees upon delivery. We’re also exploring additional DDP shipping options to provide even more flexibility, ensuring you can choose a method that suits your needs without worrying about unexpected costs.
Our Promise to You
At Silicon Wives, your trust and satisfaction are our top priorities. We’re dedicated to maintaining our commitment to transparent pricing and exceptional service. Whether you’re purchasing today or planning for the future, you can count on us to deliver high-quality dolls with no hidden fees and no surprises—unless you opt for the faster UPS Express shipping and choose to cover any fees yourself.
If you have any questions or concerns about tariffs, pricing, or anything else, our team is here to help. Reach out to us anytime, and we’ll be happy to assist.
Thank you for choosing Silicon Wives. We look forward to continuing to serve you with the quality and care you deserve.
