Summary
Best Buy warned that Trump’s proposed tariffs on imports from China, Mexico, and Canada could raise prices on consumer electronics, as 60% of Best Buy’s inventory comes from China.
Trump plans to impose a baseline 10% tariff on all imports and a 60% tariff on Chinese goods to boost domestic manufacturing.
Retailers like Best Buy and industry groups like the Consumer Technology Association are preparing for supply chain disruptions by importing goods early or sourcing alternatives to avoid higher consumer prices.
In general, phones are tamper-sealed to ensure you’re buying a new phone. So this really doesn’t make sense to me.

“New” was never mentioned.
True, but you don’t go to Best Buy to buy a used phone since they don’t sell used phones, so I think that talking about buying a new phone on Amazon vs. a new phone at Best Buy is the fair comparison here.
The condition of the phone was mentioned, so yes. That’s… kinda the whole and only point here.
Cool.
