This. It's insane that with how the planet is going after Zara and H&M we decided we need MORE fast fashion (Temu, Shein), not less.Cheap sweatshop crap.
nooo we have to live in a pod and eat the bugs and get rid of our cars to save the world from .00005 degree warming, but yea, let's also simultaneously flood the planet with garbage disposable plastic junk that ends up in landfills and rivers.This.

You get what you pay for. Cheap Chinese crap is not interesting to me. Nor are the people reselling it on Etsy.
Oh, the days at Lo Wu in Shenzhen, or AP Plaza in Shanghai. Some of that stuff I still use. Those who know...You can get cheap good quality stuff inside China. It's the crap they are exporting that sells because it has a nice photo.
Go a little deeper and you get the same stuff, the same for even cheaper. Lo Hu is a tourist trap.Oh, the days at Lo Wu in Shenzhen
dropshipping and these fucking sites ruined Etsy. Feels bad.You get what you pay for. Cheap Chinese crap is not interesting to me. Nor are the people reselling it on Etsy.
Temu adds tell me I can get a brand new iPhone for 1 dollar
The quality has improved it used to be badI learned my lesson early in life when it
Comes to buying cheap crap off Chinese websites. They take the most misleading pictures I've ever seen.
I remember buying an Mp3 player (showing my age here), and it came 3 months later and was nothing like it was described. Lol it looked like it had a touch screen, but instead it used the worst buttons on the side of the device.
It also sounded like ass. I don't remember what I paid, but I recall feeling like it was a good deal. Fool me once.
I especially don't trust temu. When you have have to advertise as much as they do, it gives a feeling of desperation.
I think I would take that over an actual iPhone. That's kind of cool, even assuming it doesn't work.
Deliveries have been quite fast in aliexpress for some time now.Yes tried Temu. Shipping is x100 times faster than Ali Express. Only negative is that Temu keeps throwing discounts at you the moment you open the app. It's so distracting at times but no issues with the experience on Temu.
Ali Express is still good but shipping can be an issue sometimes. Bought something from Ali and it showed up months later to the point where even I wondered who sent me the item
EDIT: Oh and Temu your order has to be over $35 before you can proceed to checkout. With Ali Express you can checkout with a toothpick in your cart with 0 issues.

I use AliExpress I've been importing phones for years now with them never had a problem and the prices are the lowest.It sells aliexpress/ebay chinese stuff with a hiked price because half their budget is marketing, especially on social media. Just use aliexpress
The spyware detects how much money you have in the bank.Temu has a $15 min for me?
