I doubt it.
if there is any push back in tariffs, our packages are small in size and they can always ship it to Hong Kong then reroute to your front door.
Or just set up shop in a neighboring country.

I believe the tariffs for importing illegal drugs are going from 16% to 22%, except for cocaine, which will be 25%. But check with your local DEA office for an exemption form if you'll be reselling them.

Hey bro I mean this is some serious shit us Americans have to worry about. Many of us havent dealt with Tariffs. I'm unfortunately dependent on kratom and I use kava. Both those will go up more than likely. Than I order modafinil from India from the dude you recommend who's very fair. Im curious how all this is gonna work out. We arent all made out of money. Everything I'm hearing the way they rolled this out is irresponsible and US Americans are gonna be the ones punished. Basically another tax on us because we will be paying for it.

That was a joke. When customs opens your box of scheduled drugs they're not sending you bill for the customs duties, they're confiscating it and sending you a letter telling you to stop buying illegal drugs from foreign countries.
Besides, de minimus is still in place for packages from India and everywhere else except China and Hong Kong.
LOL, the guy above didn't get the sarcasm, which is ok, but you're a genuine retard.

It might lower prices, or well, stay the same. Why do they sell compounds in the first place? Extra money. If times get hard over there because of a trade war, I'd bet they turn to this extra source of income into a more main source of income. Want to do business with us? Better be at a reasonable price.
It's hard to get a good grasp on how tariffs work, but basically, as far as I can tell, it's a cost to sell goods in a particular country. As an American, I fully support the technique being employed. The whole damn world has been imposing tariffs on the United States for decades. Now that we're using equal tariffs to make things fair, that whole damn world is having a tantrum.

Ghoul come on dude, according to your own descriptions you're not very pretty.
I'm no super-model but I'm not fat & balding with greasy skin and blackheads popping out all over my face. We've had our disagreements but I'm not gonna judge you based on looks or income (because I also think you're unemployed).
But the first and last time I asked you a question, you literally cited "gay Reddit" as as your source.

I have no doubt that Ghoul is probably much smarter than me in terms of pure IQ, but when it comes to face looks and maybe physique, there’s no competition lol

I am not nearly as concerned about a moderate price increase as I am about just the shipping process itself. Luckly I am at an age in my life where the money is a bit less of a concern, but I am too old to be worrying about shipping and seizure bullshit.

Ok, educate us. A lot of folks, including most of what is offered on the net, say it's a tax. Tax on what? Imports, exports, both? It's a tax, and it is said, "Businesses don't pay tax, not literally, but because their book keepers include their tax in the price of their goods or services, it's the consumer that pays tax." This is true in governments as well.
If a tarrif is not what I've explained here, why is the world imposing it on the USA? You know DAMN well because it is EXACTLT as I've explained dear sir, you're just one of those that hate, and you wanting it to be something else, won't make it so. You from Canada bud? Mad because our POTUS called your former PM Governor Trudeau? Mad because we are offering to bring Canada in as our 51rst state? Mad because we're not going to protect your nation anymore? Pay you your fuckin bills Mr. Perfect
I'll also offer this as well. We imposed a tariff on Vietnam if 10%. Guess what? They immediately caved and negotiations are taking place to drop all tariffs on th US to zero. China will cave too, it's no secret, they're running out of resources.
Yeah, you don't know how tariffs work.. lol. Deminimis removal is going to make everything more expensive, and gear may shift back to the old ways of movement if UGL shippers can't move stuff quickly enough.
Of course these are worse case scenarios, but this idea of equal tariffs is just elementary understanding of trade.
Like instead of talking sense, this becomes a political argument.
You say Vietnam caved. Like WTF does US trade with vietnam? Vietnam is begging for removal of tariffs because Nike and other apparel makers divested from china and moved to vietnam. Placing a tariff on Vietnam means Nike and others start losing competitive edge and may resolve to move out to another country facing less tariffs but where they can mass produce stuff for cheap. Why do you think Nike stock took a hit?
Sheesh.
You can peruse the documents and find out what the US trades, how much the tariffs are. Most of the vietnan Goods tariffs will hit belong to american companies and American consumers will foot the bill. Vietnam is worried about the American companies fleeing to another country like Bangladesh that faces less tariffs and is just as saturated with "slave labour"
