President Trump contacted Jeff Bezos following a report suggesting Amazon might show tariff costs alongside product prices. White House officials described this potential action as a 'hostile and political act,' emphasizing the administration's scrutiny of Amazon. Amazon later clarified that while they considered the idea for their Haul store, it was never officially approved and would not be implemented. This controversy arises amidst the backdrop of Trump's high tariffs on Chinese imports, which have already led to price increases from various retailers and strategies among sellers adjusting to rising costs.
The team that runs our ultra low cost Amazon Haul store considered the idea of listing import charges on certain products. This was never approved and is not going to happen.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called Amazon's rumored move a 'hostile and political act' during a press briefing.
