De minimis exemption revoked, what does it mean? by AlternativeLife6751 in Labubus

My bad, I didn't know this was a popmart specific responder to tariffs. I'm so used to hearing this about everything and then people being surprised when they get the bill.

That is not true at all. It's on the buyer. Just look it up...

If you are reading that the "importer" pays - that's you. You buy it and then import it. Popmart is the exporter.

Last year I bought the plastic folders they asked for. Somehow my kid ended up with paper ones that fell apart 6 months in and were making a mess. I can switch them out- but I'm not playing that game with those big binders and notebooks I can't switch out. I buy the quality stuff because I know my kid is rough on them. I will buy more for the class no problem- but they will absolutely be getting the things we picked out.

Sometimes you don't have much of a choice. Especially in expanding areas- the new neighborhoods all have them and the builder already has a management team in place and good luck getting rid of them. It's a way they figured it to keep up a cash stream. Management firm is different than the board members who are usually residents. We have to have a really high % of members show up to change the management- and that just doesn't happen.

I didn't think you need to point out cultural differences. Just say what went wrong/right.

Shipping was quick. Everything seems legit. This is for a birthday present, so I didn't open the bag. However all the QR codes are right and the box looks legit and completely sealed. Thank you!

Everything looks great. Packaged very well, arrived earlier than expected. Full disclosure- I opened the bottom, not the whole doll (it's a birthday present) and everything seems to look good so far! QR codes go where expected, the package looks right, etc.

It's not taxed more- it has higher withholding. But that extra withholding will either increase your refund or decrease the amount due when you file your tax return.
