Will only add cost for Chinese crap. They will get it thru importers who bring in containers rather than direct from China.
Will still be the same amount of crap.
Oh yeah, most cheap stuff is made in China, regardless of who sells it. I’d still rather buy it from a North American distributor though. Because the NA distributor will be accountable. Happy to pay the extra money for that.
Trump to Stop Postage Discounts for Chinese Packages
Finally something he and I agree on. China has enjoyed a 144 year long treaty with US allowing them to ship packages to us at a steep discount. If the withdrawal from the treaty goes through, they will no longer receive these discounts, allowing American and other international retailers to be more competitive.
I buy a lot of stuff on eBay, and it is annoying to wade through all those $1.58 items from China with free shipping. It’s clearly unfair to non-Chinese vendors.
You don't have to. Go to "Advanced" to the right of the search bar. Toward the bottom it's always set to default which includes the Chinese garbage. You can switch it to US, North America, or items by distance to your home. I switch it to North America so I can look at Canadian items as well.
AND the OP posted in it. Don't know why they needed another thread for it.
Because I didn't know the thread existed.
