Due to the new tariffs that came into effect on April 5th, we’re temporarily pausing US sales of a few of our base Framework Laptop 13 systems (Ultra 5 125H and Ryzen 5 7640U).
For now, these models will be removed from our US site.
We will continue to provide updates as we have them.
When I posted, I was under the impression tariffs were ~35%. Retail tends to be around 50% markup over BOM, so that should mean only a 10-20% price increase to keep the same profit per unit, depending on how much of it is sourced from China.
With 100% tariffs, that’s more like a 50% markup, not 3x.
The tariff on goods from China is more than 100% now. Why do you think the price would only go up by 10-20%?
