As long as they don't frick with AliExpress, it's fine by me.
Edit: Looks like it does: https://fortune.com/2025/02/02/trump-tariffs-de-minimis-loophole-chinese-online-retailers-temu-alibaba-shein/
Seems to be based on a revocation of an exemption on tariffs if the goods are below a certain amount. So, it's not really about drop shipping per se, but any products from China.

You can buy OEM AMD CPUs for like $100-150 below the American retailer markups, so that's cool. But otherwise, I don't have any use for it. The point there was that, unlike Temu, AliExpress has some good products that aren't extremely low quality knockoffs, even though, yes, most of their stuff is also that.
