Anyone Notice Stiff Tariff Increases On Goods?
Not interested in nationalism, politics or other theater... Solar panels or anything else? How about stuff from Taiwan. I don't see why their stuff would jump but then who knows...

Taiwan is on the good list, is not China, so no China tariffs on Taiwan.
I have not noticed any price increases. The seller will try to absorb some of the expense, but ultimately something will have to get passed on to the consumer.
Note that if you have a $100 item for sale here, then the US buyer is not paying an extra $25. They would have paid $30, maybe $50 maybe more for the item from China to begin with, so it is not 25% on the $100, rather just whatever they paid from China.
Other expenses get added from selling it here(warehouse, employees, distribution, shrinkage, normal US taxes, warranties etc). The China tariff will be a smaller bit than you may think.
I do not mind paying extra as I am in an industry that is VERY hurt by China theft. Something needs to be done.
