HDTV1080P Posted September 27, 2018 Author Share Posted September 27, 2018 (edited) Yes finished products like power supplies and other electronics imported from China are getting charged a 10% tariff now, and the tariff is increased to 25% on Jan 1st 2019. That's called inflation. If you do not like this thread about a Coleco ADAM Computer power supply, you can just ignore the thread. No one is forcing you to read the thread. Also just because one is explaining a few details on how to install a Coleco ADAM or ColecoVision wire harness on a ATX power supply, does not mean someone is talking in a negative way to someone. I know making power supplies and installing a wire harness is basic electronic knowledge when compared to making a Computer or videogame system, however there are some people that surf the web that do not know that much about power supplies and wire harnesses. Therefore this thread is useful information for someone that wants to install their own Coleco style wire harness instead of paying full price for a power supply that already has the wire harness installed.

However when companies increase the list price on the product that is called inflation. And that is what Chinese companies are doing. If the tariff is 10% they are currently increasing the product purchased by retail stores 10%. When the tariffs are 25% the same Chinese companies plan on increasing the product price by 25%.
