I'm surprised there's not much discussion about this here. The expiration of this exception last Friday, basically kills off buying vape gear from any of the China sites.

De Minimis Tariff​

As of May 2, 2025, the de minimis tariff exemption for low-value shipments from China and Hong Kong has ended, following an executive order signed by President Donald Trump in April. This change means that packages valued at $800 or less, which previously entered the U.S. duty-free, are now subject to tariffs as high as 145%, leading to higher prices for consumers and potential delays in shipments

It will come also in Europe :-(
