Tariff policies have a significant effect on general goods, but their impact on smoking goods is relatively limited.
For normal commodity, the price will increase a lot, like $1/pc glass jar, you need to pay $2.25/pc now.
However, for sensitive products like bongs, grinders and other smoking accessories which require special shipping and customs clearance channels, Only the shipping price will be a little bit high, item exw price will not increase.
Normally if Trump increase every 10% tariff, the shipping price will increase like every 0.6-0.7RMB/kg($0.09-0.1/kg)
