KEY POINTS

  • Amazon said Tuesday it considered displaying import charges on items sold via its site for ultra-discount items, but that the plan “was never approved and not going to happen.”
  • The White House lashed out at Amazon after a report said the company would “soon” begin displaying import charges alongside some items.
  • The move would have affected items sold on Haul, Amazon’s answer to Chinese discount retailer Temu, which offers apparel, home goods and other items priced at $20 or less.

    I would consider stopping my Amazon boycott if they put the cost of tariffs on every item.

    Until then (or until they support a sane government) no more Amazon for me, thanks.
