      It’s difficult, because when you go to shop retail in person, they don’t have what you need. And Amazon has put all of their online competitors out of business. I was ordering things from Target until they went off the deep end. I wouldn’t touch Walmart with a 10 foot pole.

          Im not super thrilled to pay $40 to $80 in customs just to get a new fucking belt or shoes for work. I urge anyone to buy local rather than international any chance you can.

      I mean, it’s not like some other random retailer is exempt from tariffs.

      They’re not talking to Amazon about it because Amazon is some special place where tariffs uniquely show up. They’re talking to Amazon because they’re a major retailer, can talk about a wide range of products.
