Uh-oh. Temu just doubled prices because of Trump’s tariffs

As America apparently digs in for the long haul in a trade war with China, one of the most popular places on the web for cheap consumer goods is increasing its prices. With import taxes skyrocketing for US residents and the de minimus exemption set to disappear, Temu has raised prices on most of its items. Prices appear to have more than doubled for most items originating from China.

De minimis exceptions are a rule that allows items imported to the US with a declared value of under $800 to be exempt from import taxes.
