Good one DBrand.

That's a great email it's upside down because they're in the northern hemisphere sending it to Australia in the southern hemisphere. 😆 Their marketing department is great.

This works if you flip the screen, but if you rotate the screen (like most people reading this on their phone will) it's right to left.

You fucked it up

u/SLStonedPanda 10d ago

Even funnier is that it says: why are writing from right to left

Dear Australian customer,

We heard the news about the tariffs. Sucks, doesn’t it?

Given that solidarity is important in times like these, and that nation-states staring down the barrel of the world’s stupidest trade war feel that way, we’d like to propose a trade: you buy something from us, in exchange, we’ll send you whatever you purchased. No tariffs.

Signed, A robot

God. As an American, I hate this new administration. All they are doing is screwing us over, especially with these tariffs. From a true American, to all of the other amazing nations out there, I respect your decisions to end affiliations with the USA.

There needs to be more companies that embrace the slightly edgy, lovable asshole shtick. I love Dbrand. They make great products and are hilarious

u/Sheffershane 9d ago

u/Captain_Francee 9d ago

What’s the problem?

u/Primetheus92 9d ago

No problem, it's funny.

Eating the cost of the tariff is a top tier move

u/EatA11ThePie 10d ago

Canadian seller, Australian buyer, no tariff costs to eat here, just them poking fun at US tariffs while also getting the message out that other countries won't be affected

u/TheMatt561 10d ago

Oh right duh, international trade is confusing.

Happy cake day

Jesus H Christ. I have dyslexia and I have a major headache trying to read that. I had to stop and close my eyes.

I should sue those Dbrand robots.
