Let's dig in and see what tat I bought.

So far, I haven't really noticed any big increases from my numerous purchases from AliExpress. Fingers crossed. Yes, Donnie the Pig can't become incarcerated soon enough - he and all his cronies.

2025-09-10 05:33:02 +0000 UTCWhat fun Big Clive! I really haven't noticed an increase in prices from Ali yet. Fingers crossed. Still buying late night things for ridiculously cheap and then like you, getting packages like Christmas every week or so. LOL Sheesh! I just made another $12 order tonight for stuff I really don't need. A GPS speedometer, a reamer and one of those itch reducer things you got in your last bag (I hope it works). Last order I got one of the USB lighter things for fun as well. I have both of these fans you got, slightly different but the one with attachable blades hangs above me at my desk making a huge difference in the desert heat. I had the other one hanging before this one but it doesn't put out as much air. (The scent packet is disgusting BTW) The light adjustment is nice going from warm to cold white as is the adjustment of airflow.

2025-09-10 05:30:51 +0000 UTCThe problem with the US tariffs isn't so much that they exist, but that they change constantly on the whims of a deranged orange man, and that there's no good system in place to collect them in many cases. I just stopped buying from AliExpress for a while and I figured I'd come back in a few months and see if they'd worked out all the details. I'm still cheesed off at having to pay any tariffs at all on small stuff since we had the "de minimis" exemption for so long. Even if the Republicans get pushed out of power eventually I don't imagine the Democrats will be in any hurry to bring it back.
