Thanks for the post. If (as I assume) China is not the primary market for your product, how much of the final price is determined by shipping from China to intermediate warehousing locations or to customers? i.e. if you were to manufacture in the market you're selling and save the bunker fuel costs (again - assumptions) of transporting in containers from China, how much does that offset increased labor cost?

Shipping small items in quantities surface is cheap. The issue with China now is 25% Trump Tax, which is huge. For less sophisticated goods, Malaysia, Vietnam, etc. are becoming options.
