A subsidy is something that allows you to offer products below the costs. The buyer may be the one ultimately paying the tariff, but it in no way lowers the costs for the producer.
Ideally, the international post convention should be redesigned allowing to charge the Chinese sellers full shipping and delivery costs, then no maybe no tariffs would be needed, but I suppose it isn't so easy to change international treaties, so they have to resort to workarounds.
