Etsy sellers say their previously thriving shops can't rebound from Trump's tariffs

Numerous Etsy sellers are reporting severe drops in sales and profitability following global tariffs imposed on Chinese imports. E-commerce business owners detail surging shipping costs and double-digit price increases for essential manufacturing supplies like magnets, enamel pins, and metal tins, which are primarily produced overseas. In response, many sellers have been forced to raise product prices and retire best-selling items, leaving them struggling to recover their pandemic-era business momentum.
