Is the temu app worth it
 
Have you purchased from them? What do you think?

DaFace 06-13-2024 05:52 PM

Do you like cheap knockoffs that take a month to ship and will probably break and essentially don't have a warranty?

Pablo 06-13-2024 05:59 PM

That shit is made by the Chinese kids too stupid and/or disabled to make Walmart stuff

Buehler445 06-13-2024 06:02 PM

No. It’s shit and they steal your identity.

If you have to ask you deserve what you’re going to get.

Don't do it

Chitownchiefsfan 06-13-2024 07:12 PM

No. Not only is it cheap knock offs it straight up steals from people.

My mom makes jewelery and there have been multiple times they have stolen the pictures she uses to promote her work to pass it off as theirs. Then they send a cheap knockoff.

Amazon for the win

For higher end things you expect to last, pass on it and get the real thing.

For cheap crap you don't care if it lasts, don't fall for the scare tactics. They already have your identity, and that cheap thing you buy off Amazon was made in the same factory with the same labor practices.
Most that cheap stuff is not really a knockoff, but rather the same thing you'd buy off Amazon. Only difference is the one on Amazon, someone else bought first, drop shipped to Amazon and sells ifor double the price. Might as well save a few bucks and buy direct.

It's true the shipping is a bit rigged at the expense of US tax payers, but the government agreed to that and will eventually correct it. Might as well benefit from your own tax dollars while you can. You are not going to get the thing the next day, but it also does not take months. Things I've been happy with: garden hoses, sunglasses I don't want to spend money on cause my son will break them, vacuum attachments to clean out the laundry vent, and a few other small random things.

My 18 year old niece is obsessed with Temu, she’s gotten some decent shit from them.

However, she is an 18 year old college student, so her expectations might be lower than yours. I would generally agree with most posters here that’s simply not worth the risk. I know everybody has access to our identities these days anyway, but why make it even easier for them just to pick up a cheap pair of dumbbells and save a few bucks?

I've ordered from them 5-6 times. Haven't bought anything "big" from there but have bought several "Hawaiian" shirts, a few golf shirts, replacement golf spikes, yard decoration things for the wife, a bunch of small crap. Quality of the stuff is OK for what you pay and shipping usually takes 2-3 weeks it seems.

A buddy of mine ordered something on Temu and the next day he was missing a kidney.

lol

Couch-Potato 06-14-2024 01:13 PM

It is. It's full of junk though, like Amazon for joke products, but some of it's humorous enough to buy. Everything is incredibly cheap bc they're just selling direct from factory cheap knockoff junk, classic China. It's like the dollar store for toys. My gf bought some clothes there too, I got a killer jacket for like $14 bucks. Just don't try to return anything bc that's not how it works. I assume its a data grab and they sell the retails metrics to other organizations to turn a larger product, but what US company isn't already doing this to you?

Did he wake up in Vegas with a white tiger in his room?
