Temu and Shein Raised Prices, Removed Products as Trump’s China Tariffs Went Into Effect

The Sheen Buyer Lariana Calhown says that about 1 170 items that were once on his Shin wish list, 40 seemed to be unavailable now. He noticed that they disappeared on Thursday afternoon. It is not clear how Sheen and Temu can choose what items can remove, but Calhown says that at least in his case, most of the products he missed had eye doors and hair products. “Usually, when things are sold, you can still click the item and see all the reviews and staff,” he explains. “But for the lash now it says, ‘Sorry this item has been removed. This product does not exist.'”

A Reddit user, who was told to stay anonymously because of privacy, screenshots shared with wired, which shows half the product in their shane shopping cart on Thursday, initially the items in Shaglam Cosmetics Line in Shain. They say they are planning to wait and are planning to see if the products return to Shayn’s website soon. “Shein and Temu will still get my business. If they raise their prices, I hope this is just a bit, “Reddit user said.

Temu and Shane did not respond to the requests to comment from Wired.
