The era of ultra-cheap, direct-to-consumer shopping is changing. What’s next? 🚨 For years, Chinese e-commerce platforms leveraged Section 321 of U.S. customs regulations—the de minimis threshold—to fuel a boom in low-cost, direct-to-consumer retail. But now, that loophole is closed. This shift doesn’t just level the playing field for American marketplaces and retailers—it also cracks down on counterfeiters who exploited the same system. With minimal oversight on small-value shipments, counterfeit goods flooded the market, undermining brands and consumers alike.
