But what’s the point of getting $0.49 worth of junk that doesn’t work? That’s the part I don’t get. It’s like we’re paying them to send us their garbage so they don’t have to deal with it lol
It does work. You have to be selective though. There’s a lot of cheap crap that people buy on amazon that are available on TEMU for 5 to 10x less.
Also you have to have low expectations. Just like when you buy cheap shit on Amazon. It’s more for little trinkets that you can get by without but may be useful.
The free shipping and free 90 day returns helps with the product not living up to expectations.
There are also American retailers on the site. I recently got an Anker wireless battery charger for $5-6 less than Amazon.
The only major downside is shipping. Nearly everyone is accustomed to one or two day shipping now. Temu shipping almost always takes 4-6 days.
