Quoted from DerRoland:Yesterday (11-10-2020) was a very sad day for european pinball buyers :
The european goverment have set at now a 25% duty (tariffs) for many US goods, pinballs are included, too!
See here for explanation:

All distributors / shops must pay now 25% extra duty for new imported pinballs, that is a huge step!
And the customers have to pay higher prices, surly they rising in the next days and weeks.
25% doesn't necessary apply to all products. This is the original tariff:
