Mint Models is planning to pass the full cost of the tariff on to the customers or just part of it.
If the tariffs continue to be as fluid as they have been I'm not sure how long they will stay at 30%. If they stay at 30%, I'll be looking at each planned future purchase to determine if I want the model badly enough to pay the extra cost.
Lastly, the Supreme Court starts hearing arguments in November on the lawsuits asserting that the tariffs were illegally imposed since that power is reserved for Congress by law. We may start to get some idea how they are leaning and what chance the tariffs have of remaining in place. I might postpone the purchase of an expensive model if one that I want becomes available around that time period. I'd hate to pay $90 extra on top of a $300 model and then find out that the tariffs were revoked by the court shortly afterwards.
