It's not hard, the country's just full of uninterested idiots.
The part they refuse to think about is the DJI is just going to raise the price to $1700 to cover. And the fact that there aren't going to be any local drone manufacturers for competition.
To cover what? DJI isn't paying anything extra.
If they raise the price to $1700, then the tariff would be $1020 to the US government, again by you, and you would pay $2720 total to get your thing, split between DJI and the port authority.
After they put it on the boat DJI doesn't care. They have their $1000. If they feel like it they can add the tariff charge and handle that for you, that's how it usually happens now, but they don't have to. You'll just get a letter from the port authority about the charges needed to release your item.
You're talking about direct to consumer from an overseas store, whereas I think the person you're replying to is talking about the pricing at a US store?
What's the difference?
Somebody has to pay the tax to get the items off the boat. Spoiler alert, everyone will pass the cost on to the final consumer.
I believe you're conflating tariffs and customs duty.
