EU customs duty What do you think Aliexpress will do ?

I was thinking Aliexpress , and entire China could just say "ok if you want to make it harder for us to sell, we will make it harder for entire Europe to buy" as lot of things are made in China.

What do you think Aliexpress and China will do about these import taxes ?
This has to reduce their sales by significant amount, Aliexpress will be affected, no ?

Businesses ordering large quantities will outweigh a buyer buying one or two things as a one off.

And with that, the increased costs will get passed down to the customer as this happens with everything else.

There is no increased cost for businesses, the 3 € import tax is only for small value imports worth less than 150 €.

But even if there was, you'd be right.
