Logitech is facing a proposed class action lawsuit for not giving customers tariff refunds, because apparently the company believes that getting reimbursed for illegal tariffs and keeping the money it charged you for them is just good business.

In April 2025, Logitech raised prices on 51 percent of its portfolio, with some prices increasing by as much as 25 percent. The complaint, filed by SJK Development and California resident Ala Awadalla in the US District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, seeks to “recover monies that Logitech extracted from American consumers as offset for import tariffs that the United States Supreme Court has since declared unlawful, tariffs for which Logitech now stands to be reimbursed by the federal government. This is all while Logitech retained every dollar of the corresponding price increases it charged its customers due to the illegal tariffs.”

Both plaintiffs bought Logitech mice at higher prices, and the complaint argues they would have paid less had Logitech not inflated prices in the name of the unlawful IEEPA tariffs. They've received no refund, credit, or other compensation. Logitech didn't exactly publicize the price hikes, which are still in effect, but it did tell investors that the increases would offset tariff impacts. In May, CFO Matteo Anversa noted that “the positive impact of the US price actions and favorable foreign exchange more than offset the impact of tariffs and higher promotions,” contributing to “the highest level of profitability in the history of the company outside of the COVID peak.”

In February, the Supreme Court ruled that President Donald Trump imposed the IEEPA tariffs illegally, and the refund process is ongoing. Logitech has received a full refund of $61 million for those tariffs, including $15 million in Q1 of fiscal year 2027 and $46 million after quarter end. The complaint alleges Logitech has been - and will continue to be - “enriched twice over at its customers' expense: once by the tariff-justified overcharges collected from Plaintiffs and the Class, and again by the government's refund, with interest, of the very duties those overcharges were represented to cover.”

The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment that Logitech must hand over its IEEPA tariff refund proceeds to customers. Logitech isn't alone in this pickle; Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony are also facing similar lawsuits. Some customers feel entitled to refunds, though mass refunds could be a logistical nightmare. Nintendo has argued that customers “received exactly what they paid for” and that there's nothing “unjust” about keeping government money, and it's pushing for arbitration - a move Logitech might mimic, given its end-user license agreement's arbitration provisions.

Logitech didn't respond to Ars Technica's request for comment. So, if you bought a Logitech mouse during the great tariff panic, you might be entitled to a refund - or at least a tiny piece of a $61 million pie, if the courts decide that's how the cookie crumbles.
