crypto gaming handheld are facing unexpected import fees, leading manufacturer Mysten Labs to temporarily suspend shipments. The company attributes these challenges to unpredictable tariff fluctuations stemming from former President Trump's trade policies. Priced at near-cost for its limited 10,000-unit production run, the $599 device—featuring integrated Sui blockchain wallet alongside Steam and Epic Games support—lacks margin flexibility to absorb the $138+ per-unit customs charges. DHL's recent duty notifications forced Mysten to pause upcoming shipments while reevaluating logistics. The firm emphasized that at this scale, forecasting country-specific tariffs remains impossible, noting these government-imposed fees represent pure cost without revenue sharing.
