Greetings HN. I am the CEO of a small consumer electronics company. Our product is designed, assembled, tested, and packaged in the US, but some of key components come from China.

Two weeks ago we placed a $6000 order electronic components (1000 units at $6/each) from our supplier. Our tariff bill has since ballooned $9000. We would not have placed the order at $15/each but it's too late to cancel. The order won't be complete for another three weeks and if this keeps escalating we may have to abandon the order and temporarily shut down.

There are two evasive actions we are considering mostly out of protest to being taxed without Congressional approval:

1) Break this shipment into 8 orders spread out over a month with a declared value of $750 each ? That would be below the $800 de minimis value which is exempt IIRC. Or does a US department keep track of the total shipments to prevent this loophole ?

2) Fly to Shenzhen pickup the order and fly back to SF with it in a back pack without declaring it. All the units would fit in a shoebox. We could have an invoice mocked up showing it's total value is below $800.

Does any U.S. citizen have experience with not declaring the value of expensive merchandise purchased overseas ? A shoebox of 1000 small circuit boards almost ensures I'll be questioned, but since it is a custom circuit there is no way to confirm the purchase price isn't what I declare it to be.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Google Optimize shut down 2 years ago and since then I struggled to find a good alternative (either overpriced or too complex to use)

So I created my own tiny AB testing tool to replace it! It supports both server-side and no-code.

Would love to hear your thoughts on what features I could add!
