Amazon is already changing its ultra-cheap Temu copycat

Summary
Amazon is adjusting its discount retail spin-off Amazon Haul in light of the new tariffs set to be imposed by US President Donald Trump on goods imported from China.
Rather than selling cheap, unbranded products directly shipped from Chinese manufacturers, the new version of Haul will stock products from well-known brands shipped from Amazon’s US warehouses.
This allows Amazon to avoid the new tariffs, which begin in May, and means consumers will not face additional charges for goods bought via Haul.
However, prices on Haul appear to have risen generally, which may reflect Amazon’s increased costs for stocking locally.
It is worth noting that most of the products on Haul are still of the low-cost “fast fashion” variety.
