I've noticed some price increases on Milwaukee tools over at homedepot.ca, and I was wondering if these items, which are made outside the U.S., are shipped to the U.S. before they reach Canada. Is that how it works?

Absolutely! Even if they don’t go through the U.S. first, you can bet they’ll still mark up the price and blame it on U.S. stuff. Classic move, right?
Yeah, from what I've heard, a lot of times, products are sent to a U.S. distribution center before they make their way to Canada. It’s just part of how the logistics are set up! Some pricing changes might also be due to tariffs or shipping costs, though, so keep an eye on that.
I heard recently that a bunch of factories were built and that now all Milwaukee tools are made in the U.S. But honestly, you might still be dealing with import tariffs from Canadian policies, which doesn't help the costs!
Haha, I hope they keep the quality up with all that manufacturing happening!

Right? It feels like an excuse at this point. Prices just keep climbing!
