I think the tariffs might actually have one niche benefit of mitigating scalping. It’s going to be even more expensive for scalpers to get their hands on an actual product now, and people are already struggling to justify the increased retail costs, as it is. I’d have to imagine it’ll be much harder for scalpers to find a buyer these days, as anybody who can afford scalpers’ fees plus tariffs likely wouldn’t have any issue getting their hands on one, to begin with.
This will go as well as the asshats who trademarked Taco Tuesday.
