No it won’t because people can currently shop at Ali express, wish, shien etc for the same drop shipper items. The reason people go on Amazon is for the 2 day or less shipping. If something is $2 but will take 2-3 weeks to ship a lot of people will still pay $23 for the same item that arrives tomorrow
that is because (I sell on Amazon) Amazon charges more for the last mile than Temu charges for the whole shipment. There is no way Temu is not losing money on every shipment. Amazon is still cheaper than mailing stuff directly to the customer though. Small light items cost me around $3 to pack and ship where they are at least $4 via USPS.
^ yes you’re correct. There’s an article they lose on average, $35 per order. But that’s not unusual as Amazon famously hemorrhaged millions (billions?) their first years as well. It’s funny the exemption is only outrageous when it’s not Amazon taking advantage of it…now they’ve followed the Starbucks model of not only being overpriced, but the only game in town with paltry customer service to boot.

Basically. That 100$ is a bunch of coupons. And you have to buy x amount of things in order to receive the coupon and then will need to buy more to use the coupons.
amazon actually hates shopify-styled dropshipping and bans sellers that attempt to do that on their platform. (Or at least did back in 2020-2022) They were fairly correct that buyers trust their ratings/reviews that are intentionally hidden on the custom storefronts of shopify dropshipping sites However, Temu is taking a route of just selling cheap shit with narrow margins, which is rather different than the dropshipping approach of selling a $2 shirt for $60 and praying some idiot doesn’t know it’s going to be trash. (i.e. the cat’s out of the bag. let’s see if they buy trash now that they know it’s trash.) What’s really interesting is the long delivery times on Temu, whereas Amazon took pride in two-day delivery that obviously isn’t happening with Temu. Very curious whether Amazon is going to protect the two-day delivery branding or let it go. The biggest L here is Etsy, who has succumb to the dropshippers and completely erroded any excuse to buy quirky, creative nonsense that could easily just be getting sent from China as well 😂
Anyone that believes this has never ordered anything from Temu. It's usually a piece of garbage or it will be something unbelievably small that you thought you could use. You might order a chair on there and not realize it's a dollhouse chair because of the way they photograph and describe it.
based on my experience ordering only camping and outdoor-related, woodworking tools, 8x10 shed, automotive tools/products and clothes. I'm pleased as pie with everything, with one or two hilarious exceptions like a $2 head-lamp that turned out to be sized for a racoons head, that I gifted to a cat, and a pair of xxxxl shorts that barely fit my 11 year old haha
Yeah...while I don't remember the Amazon that was primarily a book store, i remember the Amazon that felt curated, like someone kind of checked on the quality of what's on offer, much like a reallife store has a selection of things.
Was looking for an electric bug zapper, one I liked was being sold for $30. I limited the price down and found the exact same thing for $4 AND it came with batteries.
China would not do that as it would directly hurt their exports. They don't necessarily care who buys their stuff, as long as it sells. If any will be adding tariffs, then it will be foreign governments who import the cheap products.
I don’t know as a fellow american I don’t like to wait 4 weeks for a parcel to arrive. I still use amazon because of the convenience of next day shipping
You do that, the Congress will plug the 800 USD loophole real quick. How do I know? Exactly what happened in Brazil. There is not a single dollar you make as an individual or company, that the government does not want for itself.
I’m done with Amazon because everything on there is the same cheap crap from china but more expensive and than temu. The kicker is I just bought stuff off temu for the first time and it took less time to get to me than Amazon.
Got 90% off if i bought 10 items. Got some spare bad tools for my work for like 7 dollars. The drill bits cant handle mild steel though so seems like a fair deal lol
Lets be clear, i totally hate that shipping in and out (as i live in Germany but oder from USA) has become so expensive becasue everyone only focus on fast and expensive. But 95% of my online orders are not urgent. I want it weeks to arrive (by sea not by plane) and be half the price
I think I rather cut out the middleman and order directly from shein/temu, at least the shipping will be cheaper. amazon shipping is always ludicrously expensive.
You never actually get the cheap prices from temu. They make you buy stuff to cover the margins for the free and cheap items. A free item will minimum cost you $40
Not really paying “any tariffs” mostly paying duties on the items based on their HTS codes. HTS codes are tariffs, but these companies still have to pay duties and other fees based on the government regulations and codes and the department of the government it concerns for example cotton or other fabrics
I think there should be a "crap tax" for all the craps that the vendors refuse to take back, which probably ends up in the dumpsters. Also, there should be a cap on cheap freight incentives currently being offered to developing nations.
What is Shein and in this context why is Aliexpress not mentioned, they literally are the original and have way more versitail stuf than temu while priced the same
I shipped a 1.5 pound package half the size of a shoe box to Malaysia a couple weeks ago and it cost me $28 in shipping. None of this makes any sense to me.
First make that to Europe.. I bought iot sensor from us. I canes after three weeks. I needed to pay tariff and it was packed in very rudimentary package.. sensor itself was clever.
Amazon HQ: "We have to figure out a way to compete with Shein and Temu" Korean E-Commerce companies: "And Amazon as well. What if we ask our government to raise an unprovoked trade barrier against all major economies that our country has a Free Trade Agreement with?" Welcome to South Korea. Shit just can't get more stupid than this. Compared to whatever is happening in this place, Amazon is a saint.
Yeah but theres ppl with money who dont have time to wait and waste on being cheap. I only buy prime shipping items it has to be 1 day or same day skipping only idc if it cost more.
I use to buy a lot of books on Amazon and other random stuff. Nowadays I've returned to using other websites because the 3rd party sellers are becoming increasingly sketchy.
This is just a classic tactic to gather customers and destroy competition. These insane discounts and promotions will be gone in the very near future. Shoppee for example did it and failed to destroy competition so they are deep in the red and recovery is slow. I wonder how much money temu saved up to burn.
The Chinese government subsidizes the shipping costs to our ports. There is no way for an American company to compete with China selling Chinese made products. They are making a point to sell direct to consumers.
This will decimate all the dropshippers that were already on their platform reselling that same stuff with an insane mark up.
As a former drop shipper: good.
