    Acer increases laptop priced by 10% then blames tariffs. Increases costs again when actual cost increase from tariffs come through

      They’re not apple, if they increase the price it means they think most of the competition will increase the prices or nobody would buy their stuff

      After all, the margins are thin and the tariff is high
