Sony Accused of ‘Double-Dipping’ Tariff Refunds Over PS5 Price Hikes

TL;DR Summary
A lawsuit claims Sony could profit from Trump-era tariffs by keeping higher PS5 prices in the US and then collecting tariff refunds, with plaintiffs arguing refunds should go to buyers who paid the higher price. Proving a direct link between the price increase and tariffs, and proving consumer harm, is contested; Nintendo faces similar suits, and the outcome remains uncertain as the case is early.
