I think it'd be an enormous help if they did show the detailed information.

If they don't, I sure hope someone else starts to.

It'll be more like hidden fees that you don't see until you're placing the order, I bet.

Third richest man in the world with $215Bn can probably afford to pay for all of Amazon's tariffs for years if he actually wanted to, but I doubt he will.

That wouldnt be legal outside of the US i think

Honestly, it doesn't matter how rich he is personally or Amazon is, it would make zero sense to eat this cost as a business. These taxes are being added to the price they pay when they import them.

I don't exactly love Bezos or Amazon, but...I think the best recourse in this situation would be to do what they originally proposed, but then backed off of, because donvict is a gigantic whiny pussy - and that's to give the customer all the information on just why it costs what it costs.

bozos is a punk ass bitch pussy.

sorry, I don’t always string obscenities together I just feel strongly about this.

I run keepa which shows historic prices on Amazon. Seems like someone could make an extension that would do similar, showing tariff impact on each item. And before someone jumps in with "Just do it yourself", I would if I wasn't so lame at shit.

We should all use the reviews feature to constantly post this information for them.
