Was he actually thinking that those $450 were just gifted by the exporter?
OP is supposed to take their now even less money and start a business/factory/supply chain in america making those things in america so that OP can be extorted by the Trump administration so that Trump can then take OP's new business from OP.
C'mon that OP isn't even trying to understand what is happening.
At least companies could put it in the pricing up front, but boy the tweeter is dense if they are real.
Why would they put it in the pricing? It looks like it's the shipper collecting the fee on behalf of the government, the seller doesn't see that money at any point.
I ordered some oem motorcycle parts not too long ago. The parts cost was ~$12 the shipping was another $8 when i placed the order. Three weeks later i come home to the parts at the front door. Fast-forward 3 more weeks and I get an unexpected invoice from fedex for $7 in duties and tarriffs. Needless to say, i've ignored the invoices for 5 months. -It's not that i'm upset that there are tarriffs on stuff I purchased -it's the fact that fedex never notified me of the bill till weeks after the delivery. Considering that its nearly the same as the cost of the parts, there's a high probability I would have rejected the delivery instead of paying the tarriffs had I been given the option like the guy in the post.
That’s the frustrating part people don’t see — tariffs hit the buyer directly, not the exporter. It’s a real shock the first time you run into it.
Well the exporter get hit too. People might choose another product as you can't be competitive on price
I had the same issue with a piece of music equipment. Unfortunately, I didn't know it was coming from Europe until DHL asked me for money.
What if you don't pay it / wait it out until finding out the supreme Court ruling?
Mr Creopard or Mr Leoparsote?
art of getting kicked in the nuts and blaming 'da dems'
FAFO.
