#415 - Who Really Wins From Chinese Tariffs?


Listen Later

Tariff talks between the U.S. and China have officially started in Switzerland, and they're expected to continue through Sunday. But before you celebrate the potential for an 80% import tax on Chinese goods, here's the uncomfortable truth:

These tariffs may actually help Chinese sellers more than they hurt them.

In this episode, I break down how Chinese factories are still able to undercut U.S. brands—thanks to lower cost of goods, undervaluing shipments, and manipulating HS codes. I reference a recent Marketplace Pulse article that reveals how direct-from-China Amazon sellers are still thriving despite rising tariffs.

I also share a live case study with one of my agency clients, who's dealing with excess inventory, aged stock fees, and Amazon's inventory utilization rate surcharges. If you're ignoring your FBA inventory metrics, you're probably paying way more than you realize.
