Maybe slightly, or maybe vendors will use this a justification to increase pricing. They will pay 10% on the declared value, there is no telling what that value is for the skin products they are importing. Could be a value of $10 per kit, which would increase the cost by $1.
I disagree. The issue is the de minimis change. Most of what is sent is sent using this rule that means it comes in tax free. Thats changing
We will know soon enough.
I hit a pay wall saying I read too many CNN articles for free.
The only executive order I saw posted on the White House site concerned Canada. White House officials told the Washington Post that Trump signed two other executive orders. It's hard to say without reading the orders what they mean.
Yeah but I am assuming the markups on these products are high.... so tariffs are based on what the estimate worth is , not sales price?. If they are going to be more carefully scrutinizing product to determine its valuation for tariffs won't that lead to more seizures?
Remove anything in the URL before the year (such as "/2024/") and paste "https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/" before the year and then remove the "index.html" at the end of the URL and you'll view the complete article without paywall
Might already be too late for that. I was thinking of placing an order on Monday after CNY is up but who knows when all this goes into effect and how it might affect lines. I doubt the vendors will even know themselves. It is just going to be trial and error for a while.
Or order from a vendor that has some stock in a US domestic warehouse. I placed such an order yesterday.
Thanks. It worked.
This is my thinking, with hundreds of thousands of new shipments now available for potential inspection, CBP will be spread even thinner. Seizures may go up but I can't see any way that they can inspect/intercept a large percentage of them when all of the Aliexpress and Temu orders are now included in the potential inspection process.
De-minimis-trade rule changes were actually proposed by Biden but Trump will likely support it.
Shein has been funding my weight loss wardrobe lately. This is devastating. 🥲 My local thrift stores aren't worth the price, it's all shein clothes but somehow marked up even higher.
Was that Amo? I want to place an order with them but I'd be a new customer so I'm just sitting here waiting for their site to come back up. 🥲
Man Canada is gonna be erased off the map, Trudeau wants to apply 25% tariff for stuff from the US.
I had suspected I was being paranoid when I was hoarding. Now it seems I was right. Of course a month from now this whole thing may have blown over.
I think a tariff is the least of our concerns. We haven't paid sufficient duties on the items we are importing. I don't know about your supplier, but mine lists the item as kitty litter on the invoice.
Even still, kitty litter is also going to be subject to additional tariffs so we’ll see prices increase. These things are not being applied in a surgical manner.
