I've been expecting something like that ever since Moss purchased Rimmer Br=
os. What is a bit surprising (to me) is that it only effects Moss Europe; M=
oss USA isn't mentioned in the announcement.

I've dealt with both Moss UK and Rimmer Bros before. Both are quality organ=
izations. I'm hoping that the new organization will adopt the best practice=
s of each of the three firms (but I fear enshittification). Moss UK and Rim=
mer Bros have struggled to integrate their practices and systems since Rimm=
er Bros was purchased. They have, apparently, been working on consolidating=
 their warehouses and inventory for the past several months.

Given the looming prospect of tariffs, etc., I'd like for the combined Euro=
pean organization to be a more viable supplier for folks like myself in Can=
ada. Right now, Moss UK isn't. Moss UK charges a minimum of GBP51 (that's U=
SD$70 or CAD$95) to ship anything to Canada. Rimmer Bros, on the other hand=
, charges less than GBP20 (about USD$27 or CAD$37) which, although still he=
fty, is better.

Fingers crossed.
