What is a tariff: A tariff is a tax on imports, usually put in place to protect certain industries that are perceived as essential.
Why are only some parts included: The China Section 301 - Tariff Actions and Exclusion Process identified specific product lines for these tariffs. We do not have a full list of affected products, but ~15% of our stock is affected. Parts will be identified with a message box reading “Import Tariff may apply to this part if shipping to the United States”.
How much does the tariff charge: Affected products will see an incremental 25% tariff. This amount is not shown in the resale prices on our site, but will be shown during the checkout or invoice process.
I still have more questions: We do have a few sources for more information
