Liberation day - US Vapes

I’m in the USA, and while I in no way support tariffs, and honestly have no idea how it will or has affected the price or vapes I’m interested in, but it’s screwed up my cost of living enough that vas is probably going to have to wait until the politicians die off.

Individual gift giving is not (for now) subject to the same restrictions as actual trade. This suggests that there may be ways for us (as consumers) to circumvent these (business focused) laws. War is over if we want it etc.

Whoa, 104% tariff on China. That should be interesting for the likes of Healthy Rips, POTV One, Lobo, Boundless and probably several more. At least some vaporizer buyers will learn in real life that tariffs on China are not paid by China.
Fuck around and find out, Trumpers!!! Not sure how any Cannabis supporter could ever agree with the orange cult.

Fairly sure they were explicitly trying to eliminate buccaneers on signal recently.

They failed. Same as their predecessors. The "pirates" still have full control over the Red Sea. Every ship bound for Israel or flying under an American or Israeli flag is sent the long way around Africa.

I know it's hard for some of you but please take the politics elsewhere. The topic is:

A question for those not in the US. Liberation day is upon us, and tariffs have been applied around the world.

Do you feel any different about buying US Vapes?
Will it make you think twice about buying a US vape?
Will you be hit with increased prices due to reciprocal tariffs?

Or will all of this make no difference to you at all?

Hope we can have a civilised conversation about this subject and keep it nice.

Edit: I thought I'd take a shot at this.

Since VAS is a distant memory for me, I won't feel different because I'm not interested in buying anything from anywhere. If I were, however, I have made many friends in the industry from the US. I would not turn my back on them because Trump might be having a tariff day.

Everyone will pay more because of this trade war. As long as Trump keeps things unstable, you can be sure you will see prices rise. Fortunately, cannabis these days is a domestic product for most of us so the effects of the tariffs should be minimal. Can you imagine what kind of tariff Trump would slap on Mexican ditchweed?

Looks like eBay.

if they are using GSP, your pay shipping and taxes upfront to eBay.

Money won't be going to the seller. Shipping figure will differ depending on your country and taxes (or tariffs).
