How long does it typically take for prices to return to normal after tariffs are removed?

I don't think I'm the only one that realizes that when customers are used to paying a certain price, they will continue paying it.
But the importer is now going to charge the receiver. As soon as the tariffs are gone, receivers are going to stop getting that surcharge.
I work in manufacturing. I only raise prices.
I'm losing international sales because of the tariffs and I have to recoup those lost sales somehow
Prices are going up regardless because:
My prices do not “return to normal”. They either stay where they are or they go up.
What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning for one minute?
If labor costs go up, materials costs, rent, etc I raise my product prices. If those costs go down, I keep my prices right where they are.
Tariffs are not paid by the sender (Me) or the receiver (my customers). They are paid at the border by the importer.
Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this….
But wait, there's more!
I can only expect Trump to continue disrupting the business environment with his willy-nilly bullshit proclamations and I need to protect my business against that worthless orange auto-fellating facefucker
I have to rebuild supply chains $ch-ching$
