Aliexpress no longer an option


Anyone try to buy from Aliexpress recently?  I went in to pick up some copper banana connectors, added them to my cart to find out what our new tariffs look like.  $13.00 set of 4 bananas, $1.14 tax, $1.20 shipping and $23.40 customs fee!  That for a $13.00 item.  Trade war has arrived at our door.  Grrrrrrr….

Please reframe from the political debates/opinions I just wanted to inform USA audio shoppers what our China tariff reality is now.

You start with a ridiculous accusation of 100's of lies told daily, then want to argue.  Argue, not discuss is your desire. You can't possibly make that kind of accusation unless you are at the man's side 24/7.  There is no place to go with your disconnect from reality.  

 

@tksteingraber  You opened this can of worms.  Asking to avoid political debates is like trying to reason with a 3 year old.  Not possible.  Lack of common sense and inability to understand anything beyond the end of one's own nose will always result in the response you see.

@gano 

just tell me one lie out of the 100s of daily lies that it is isn't

Thanks for the perfect illustration of completely irrational emotion driven fantasy based attitude. 

@gano 

And you managed to completely avoid my point though

Your point is perfectly clear.  Make a statement on its face completely ridiculous and without merit.  Then demand a reply to such baseless silliness.  Nope!

Those that suffer from TDS are so intellectually challenged all they can do is repeat talking points fed to them.

Remember the Abraham Accords?  Who was it that wasted a historic opportunity for progress in the Middle East?  I think there was some cognitive decline involved, last name started with a B.  But hey, no problem.  The always perfect news media is now admitting they completely missed the cognitive decline.  What pillars of unbiased and accurate reporting.

I am sorry I triggered you. I have intention to argue with you, totally pointless.

You write nothing but word salad gibberish.  Great demonstration of intellect, trotting out the tried and true lefty woke "triggered" label. Of course you don't want to argue because you have nothing to offer but empty accusations.

A meaningless throwaway comment based on a snapshot in time.  Anybody that makes decisions based on Market swings in short term snapshots is a financial illiterate.  When there is a short term upswing will we hear that reported from you as a real new car in your driveway.  I think not.  

Continue the irresponsible spending, fraud, and waste for your children and grandchildren to deal with.  Good plan!

During first Trump term the US economy was booming, lowest inflation in decades, and no US involvement in new Wars.  They lying media and Democrats claimed the world would end if Trump was elected.  Didn't happen.

Lying media and Democrats claimed Biden was sharp as a tack.  Anybody with more than 2 brain cells could see that was not true.  

The media, Democrats, and Trump haters have a long record of being wrong.  Y"all keep believing the media liars and waste your time with AI searches.  Normal people with common sense will get on with life and enjoy the clown show you all provide.
