This may be discussed elsewhere but does anyone have recent experience with buying a frame? I ordered one and now I'm nervous that I'll have a huge bill to pay once the frame gets to the United States.

Wish I had something more reassuring to say on the subject, but you'll almost certainly have to pay 145% of whatever the declared value is.

Customs is likely overwhelmed with the greatly increased volume of things they have to process without De Minimis, so if you're lucky the seller lowballed the declaration and Customs won't bother to check that it's realistic.

I feel for you.  OTOH, Someone has to be the first Guinea pig.   Be sure how to tell us how it goes.
