How does the United States purchase China's advantageous goods under the tariff barrier?

Under tariff barriers, American consumers can still purchase high-quality Chinese goods in various ways: 
First of all, American consumers could choose to fly directly to China for shopping, bypassing tariff barriers and experiencing the "China Shopping" craze. However, this is not realistic. 
Secondly, cross-border e-commerce platforms have provided convenient shopping channels for American consumers. For instance, Chinese e-commerce applications such as Alibaba, Taobao, and DHgate have seen a continuous rise in popularity in the US market. American consumers can easily purchase Chinese-made goods through these platforms. These platforms offer a wide range of product choices, including electronics, clothing, and household items, meeting the diverse needs of American consumers. However, many buyers encounter numerous obstacles in the payment process.

To successfully purchase high-quality products and overcome such issues, here are some steps you can follow:
1. Search for the product you want on Google. Relevant websites will be recommended. Click on the website, select the product you want to purchase. If the product does not support purchase in the US market, contact the customer service. You can make an offline transaction. The supplier will package the product and deliver it to you. (Take my website: www.aromli.com as an example. Many products support offline purchase.)


2. Browse the product you have chosen on social media. Most of them will have the contact information of the supplier (you can contact the manufacturer directly via email or WhatsApp). Explain that you want to make an offline payment, and you can successfully purchase the product.


3. Many products in TikTok live streams support purchase in the US market. If not, the reason will be explained on the spot. A corresponding customer will contact you for an offline transaction.

In addition, some exporters showcase the production process of their factories on platforms like TikTok and encourage American consumers to directly contact Chinese sellers for purchase, further promoting direct trade between China and the US.

Overall, tariff barriers cannot completely dampen the enthusiasm of American consumers for purchasing high-quality Chinese goods. Against the backdrop of globalization, trade between China and the US continues to grow strongly, providing more choices and opportunities for consumers in both countries.
