No tariffs...
(slrpnk.net)
Wow... Just like... Damn girl good for you. She knows what she wants.
When shipping used goods, tariffs, which are taxes on imported goods, are generally calculated as a percentage of the item's value and collected at customs clearance in the foreign port.
Anyways enough being pedantic yes you should absolutely buy used locally to avoid these taxes.
I was gonna say, there goes my dream of buying a brand new Honda CB500F. The MSRP is ~$7000 right now. It's gonna skyrocket.
That is a bit high, but I think it might still be worth it. And Honda's are well made too, so it will last you a good while.
That is a bit high
Exact MSRP for my area is $6899 with a +$600 "destination fee". Plus taxes.
but I think it might still be worth it.
Probably. But see below ๐

Oh I know, I already have two other Hondas: a modified 2007 Metropolitan (lowered, stretched, some Ruckus parts), and a 1980 XR500. I'm pretty sure my wife would murder me herself if I bought another bike ๐
i keep trying to get secondhand underwear but the upcharge is ridiculous
Secondhand needles, on the other hand, are free. People just leave them lying about!
I bought some used hard drives. How else am I supposed to get 3.2TB for $20?
I can't eat used furniture Steve...
We're Beavers, how many times do I have to remind you?....
but you can buy second hand pretzels. just don't expect there to be a lot of salt on them.
Kinda feel like you just described farming.
One of the best ways to save money is to always buy used. If you look in the right places everything is available.
Just the other day I found a used condom literally for free just laying on the street!
I would love to see a source for the actual claim that buying used avoids tarrifs, because all I can find says that tarrifs still apply to used products being imported.
I think its meant as in: used products already in the country
