Does anyone know how much tariffs Americans will have to pay on imports from China？

[ablelaser01]

no one knows... tariffs are changing hourly by an insane angry man and all his idiot friends.

We have several orders from the United States, and the customers have already paid. Now the customers are hesitating about when to ship to avoid high tariffs.

Depends on the class of product and it's homologation code. For instance, broadly 'electronics' were exempted, but not all 'electronics'.

YES. I am wondering whether laser lights are "electronics".

I thought he suspended the tariffs on Chinese goods for 90 days? Or was that only for cell phones and electronics?

Honestly, it's been so crazy lately that I've actively avoided looking for details, because the more I read, the more upset I get.

And that's before we even start talking about Canada. Or Greenland. Or Heard Island (hint: that one is uninhabited).

Hi Adam, yes tariffs are very crazy. All the products that should have been exported to the United States are now staying here. American customers are waiting for a “NEW” policy to pay less tariffs.

He did two^H^H^H three things.

First, he put a 90 day pause on all reciprocal tariffs except for China.
Then a few days later, me made a HUGE exception for 'electronics' from China (see: https://content.govdelivery.com/acco...letins/3db9e55)

But then a couple of days ago, orange potato head reversed himself again saying the exception was only temporary:

So any given day -- who the fuck knows.

Tariff policies are changing all the time, and customers have to recalculate their costs all the time

I've been losing interest in the latest news nowadays but I do check up on it once and awhile. It can cause a lot of stress. A guy I know had a friend in canada who he knew for over 4 years suddenly just turn on him because he's in america. He's been going around giving death threats to anyone american now. I feel bad for him but what can you do?

I feel sorry for him too. Hope everything settles down soon.

... I'm from Germany -- here the trend, to avoid all sorts of "made in USA" products, gets a pretty big momentum

Tariff barriers will cause mutual harm

I feel both sad and powerless regarding the people who indulge in this type of self dis-regulation, rudeness, and who relish hurtfulness. Doubly so when it appears they are representing Canada. Honor and respect from this Canadian to my American friends, as always.

I feel sorry for him too. Hope everything settles down soon.

Peace to you guys too
