Really hoping that trump actually goes ahead with his stupid plan to destroy the entire american economy
Intensely funny that Trump won because of rising prices, and his plan is to do the exact same thing, but on purpose and even worse.
You know the dems wanted to lost the election or they would be hammered down that tariffs = taxes
Americans love aan with a plan
Concept of a plan*
Folks we’re doing 3rd worldism folks the ssettler ekkkonomy of the united ssnake$ of amerikkka will suffer like no other when my tarriffs are in place folks, just like what the late great j sakai ordered
Won’t somebody think of the drop shippers?!?!
How can I show my support to my favorite franchise if I have to pay $10 more for a pile of plastic?
Send money in an envelope to mr. disney frozen head, like the ancestors did it
Do I get treats in return?
Trump will tariff away funko pops
I hate it when broken clocks are based
say goodbye to plushies
ok
Death to America
indie artists
600% profit
I don’t believe this is true.
You could just look up how cheap you can order shit like that on Alibaba and know for a fact that it’s true but whatever.
i think the part he doubts is that they’re indie artists
you can order shit that’s already made on alibaba for cheap but if you want the factory to make your design, there is overhead, and actual indie artists usually cannot afford that / can barely profit
Dropshippers do that amount or round it, how do you think there are so many of them? Obviously this excludes advertising
Depends on the batch size and quality, indie artists make fuckall on plushies in the end.
if you’re early to a rare niche, you can make way more than 600%. but depending on the niche, amazon might decide to compete with you (since they have all your sales data), or your supplier sells to anyone so eventually you get 10 competitors, then eventually your margin drops, but you know it is possible to keep your niche a secret for years.
These days you’re guaranteed to be late to almost all possible niches, so if you don’t have some inside knowledge/connection, you’re probably gonna not going to find any niches that aren’t already over-saturated.
The problem is even worse because grifters have moved on to selling “classes” on how to join this money making opportunity (aka scam), conveniently leaving out a.) how late you are to the game and b.) how the market has already pulled up several ladders.
They’re selling lazy wannabe entrepreneurs a get rich quick fantasy that no longer exists and probably wasn’t that great in the first place.
Yesterday, I was an “eccentric” for hording and repairing laptops instead of just buying New Chip every year. But when an i3 shitbox costs you $1000 dollars, who will be laughing then? WHO WILL BE LAUGHING THEN?!
Seriously though in a year you will not be able to afford a new computer so make sure you have something you can repair.
I’ve been piece by piece replacing and upgrading my desktop. Maybe time to do the final pieces…
Should I pull the trigger on building a pc now?
Imo yes, but no need to overspend, CPU and GPU performance gains have been plateauing for a while now so nobody really needs bleeding edge stuff.
ah shit now im imagining some decade old shit PC suddenly 4x-ing in value lmao
next an Intel n100 minipc will cost as much as a ps5 pro 🤔
Imagine going to a convention and not being given post it note pads too small to write on and shirts that fall apart the first time you wash them. That’s Trumps America.
I think there will be some serious import undervaluation if such tarrifs were implemented.
Oh yeah, this crate of plushy animals totally cost 30 bucks
china export will collapse (on paper)
Yea that’s the problem with trade controls without capital controls. You can still pay China pretty easily.
I guess Trump could expand the bureaucracy to catch mismatch between foreign currency transfers and trade but that will be “expensive” in that Government spending will go up.
you don’t have to do any fraud. Tariffs don’t harm the exporter and if it is still cheaper to import with the tariff than to produce domestically the company can pass the full cost of the tariff on to the customer, or even additional to obscure the actual cost now that they have cover.
I mean if demand is high enough one might make offshore companies to process payments in untraceable manner for 5 % (at least that’s around legal rate i believe). I just pay shp2usa, they pay someone else, they convert money to euros and pay in singapore, and my stuff arrives with printed price 0.3 $ per pound, customs are a joke due to speed of process
Literally every time I’ve bought something of reasonable value from an Asian country the seller asks something like “what value do you want us to put on your import invoice?”
Y’all laugh, but this could affect Bhaji prices, and what are trans women going to pose with on instagram after that hun?
A poster in Twitter called this ideology “Treatlerism” which i think it gets the point across, they care not from whence the treats flow, only that it flows
Treatlerite particles.
Wait, the treat meme gets used outside of Hexbear?
It originates with chapo trap house podcast iirc
Our large treat boy son was patient zero
