1. Would be nice to get a check but some things you just can't unwind.

Who paid what and passed it on? Was it on a component by component basis or just a surcharge levied on top to cover tariff exposure? And was that surcharge even accurate compared to the vendor's actual tariff exposure? It's a ginormous mess beyond our abilities to comprehend. Unwinding all that and figuring out who's owed what may be an impossible task. And of the 2K importers who sued, did they pass the tariff impact to their customers? Most did. We sure as hell do. So really, it's the folks down the supply chain that are the injured parties. Did I say this is a god awful mess? It is.
