Pulled from an espresso subreddit I read. Company that makes and ships the grinder is from the UK, but the product is manufactured in China

Is this winning?

I mean tariffs make things more expensive until they don’t anymore. If anybody needs that explained to them, right or left, they’re a moron.

It's hard to say, it's all so incomprehensible.

What did this coffee grinder cost before?

Buy a different coffee grinder, it isn't that complicated.

You bet. A product made in China that's sold by a company in the UK, yeah, tariff the hell out of them when there are numerous companies in the U.S. that make them.

Reddit is pissed right now that a Swiss study, without their knowledge, proved that AI bots can be trained to use false information to change the minds of people on their site. The site is full of idiots.

It’s shipped by DHL, so it will be lost and refunded anyway. So who cares?

Which American companies make espresso grinders? Aside from the red rooster company posted above, which appears to be a $230 repurposed pepper grinder

Are you under the impression that the shipping notification is fake? Is the tariff made up?

You've won a downvote, for missing the forest for the trees.

The rest of us have won a political figure that actually does what they say they're going to do

I'm under the impression that it's all but completely meaningless without more information.

Tell us who "needs" a fricking coffee grinder.

Can't you find something fricking USEFUL to whine about?
