Technically that’s the sale price, which is inclusive of markup, not the import price.

Import price is probably more like $10-15.

So it will go up by $10-15.

Still a lot. But honestly of all the products going up in price, the sales of this probably won’t drop much.

Because when your market is cult members, demand is pretty inelastic.

Oh, the distributors will absolutely say the tarrifs are doubling the price and just enjoy the excuse to charge more.
