Prime Day 2025: Ofertele preliminare au început deja, dar ar putea tarifele să reducă economiile?

Amazon Prime Day, the mega retailer’s summer shopping event, is set for July 8-11 this year — doubling in size from two to four days. Exclusive to Prime members, it offers some of the cele mai bune oferte Amazon of the year, but looming price hikes din cauza tarifelor could impact how much of a savings shoppers can expect. 

Amazon launched Prime Day back in 2015, and savvy shoppers have eagerly anticipated this annual event ever since. But this year, the event could overlap with the resumption of President Donald Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs.” He announced the tariffs in April, quickly putting them on a 90-day pause. But the expiration date is July 9 — right in the middle of the Prime Day sales event.

Countries could face double-digit tariff hikes if they don’t reach an agreement by the deadline. Companies would likely pass through additional costs associated with tariffs to consumers — meaning we could pay more for everything, including electronică. 

Most imported products for Prime Day will likely already be in the US and shouldn’t be subject to newly imposed tariffs, but there could be exceptions, according to Timothy Meyer, Richard Allen/Cravath distinguished professor in international business law, Duke University School of Law. 

“If for some reason the goods have not already been imported, then they could be affected by any tariffs,” he said. “Sellers could not pass on the price of the tariffs after the consumer has purchased the goods, but it is possible that sellers might raise their prices during the sale.”  

Our CNET Deals team will track all the best deals throughout the event so you can score the lowest prices. This will help you navigate the sale and stay ahead of any tariff-based price rises.

Cum ar putea afecta tarifele vamale ofertele Prime Day?

Prețuri pe tot, inclusiv aparate electrocasnice, se așteaptă să crească ca urmare a Tarifele drastice ale lui Trump, pe care l-a anunțat inițial pe 2 aprilie. A urmat rapid o pauză de 90 de zile pentru majoritatea tarifelor, lăsând un tarif de bază de 10% pentru mărfurile importate din majoritatea țărilor. Trump a anunțat recent un acord comercial cu China care a stabilit un tarif total de 55% în vigoare — deși 25% din acesta au fost puse în aplicare în timpul primului său mandat.

The administration has since said that it’s in the process of making deals with many countries to ease tariffs, but the deadline is quickly approaching and could impact some products during the Prime Day shopping event. If retailers pass along the full cost of the tariffs, it could mean we’ll be paying a lot more for products manufactured in other countries. 

După lansarea Prime Day-ului original în 2015, retailerul și-a extins numărul de evenimente de vânzări, inclusiv... Marea Vânzare de Primăvară în martie și în Prime Zilele marilor afaceri în octombrie. Reducerile Prime Day de anul trecut au avut loc între 16 și 17 iulie.
