Wtf is up with the constant Temu ads??? Does anyone actually buy from them? For a company to stay afloat selling $3 pants and $4 sneakers I assume all of it must be made out of construction paper and assembled by enslaved orphan children… How could it possibly be anything besides a scam???

    I’ve had pretty good luck with the random kitchen accouterment or phone case from Aliexpress but probably due to marketing, Temu seems to have overwhelmed several countries’ postal systems so I’ll also be steering clear. These companies (amazon included) all massively contribute to exploitation though so I wouldn’t recommend going hog wild on them with 100 orders of random shit.

    Just turns out that it’s really cheap to make various types of garbage in China and ship it the cheapest possible way that takes 1+ months to arrive. Many of these products lack fancy packaging and marketing as well which also slashes costs.

    After my experience with wish, I’m never falling for these cheapass Chinese marketplaces again
