It's going to court the first of next month. In a nut shell, They can put on tariffs but thru the process not saying tariffs on, tariffs off. So the craziness should calm down. We will need to wait and see.
[USA] Will Tariffs come about and lead to higher priced ebike parts
- Thread starter DingusMcGee
- Start date
Someone must have been watching the old Karate Kid film with Mr. Miyagi saying "Wax on, right hand. Wax off, left hand. Wax on, wax off. Breathe in through nose, out the mouth." and see if we get away with the tariffs. Is that right Coca-cola are thinking of pulling out of the USA to Germany or the Netherlands, what happens if Pepsi Cola have the same idea, then Levi and Wrangler. Do not where each of them get their base materials from.

I was considering buying the cyclone controller from Hong Kong but could not figure out what extra tariff charges currently apply.
I also have the option of getting a Fardriver controller thru Dun Electric via Mal Asia .
Does anyone know the applicable tariffs in place today that would apply to these options?
Probably tariffs in place for the next week would be a better suited dateline as I think tariffs are accessed at US customs.

I would wait for a few days, supposed to be a trade agreement in the works, but we have been lied to daily.

Hm.. 55%.. and in theory.. export controls on advanced American technology can be negotiated now.

I just ordered some items. $7 plus free shipping on aliexpress if I ordered two. So I did, and the email said they shipped. Apparently, if de minimus waiver is gone, they still haven't started charging it yet. Or it won;t arrive and be thrown in a warehous which will quickly fill up.
Will be interesting who the last mile carrier is and if you'll have to pay tariff before package release. I have not bought anything since de mininus was cancelled on May 2nd. Last mile on all my free shipping orders within the past 2 years were mostly delivered by a private courier (Better Trucks) within 8 to 10 days of placing the order. Now I see on aliexpress shipping methods specified: USPS, DHL, Fedx, UPS etc, so they can charge you tariff I suppose? Before this tariff BS, shipping method was not specified as I remember.
Time to place a test aliexpress order.

Yes, but all this "deal" does is put things back to where they were before all this nonsense started. This is a recurring theme... create a "problem" and then pretend to solve it and take credit for solving it. All the fake drama of a reality show... except this is our real economy they are mucking with.
