How long does it typically take for prices to return to normal after tariffs are removed?

If labor costs go up, materials costs, rent, etc I raise my product prices. If those costs go down, I keep my prices right where they are.

I'm losing international sales because of the tariffs and I have to recoup those lost sales somehow

Tariffs are not paid by the sender (Me) or the receiver (my customers). They are paid at the border by the importer.

But wait, there's more!

My prices do not “return to normal”. They either stay where they are or they go up.

Prices are going up regardless because:

I work in manufacturing. I only raise prices.

I can only expect Trump to continue disrupting the business environment with his willy-nilly bullshit proclamations and I need to protect my business against that worthless orange auto-fellating facefucker

But the importer is now going to charge the receiver. As soon as the tariffs are gone, receivers are going to stop getting that surcharge.

Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this….

I don't think I'm the only one that realizes that when customers are used to paying a certain price, they will continue paying it.
