It's good that people believe your statement, without it my business will not succeed. I buy from the same vendor and then sell it for marked up price on Amazon, with nicer packaging

@@diegoflores9237 They do safety tests on brand name products that come into this country. There is no regulation when it comes to the items from Temu with no brand name
This is one of the things that big companies have constantly being brainwashing people into believing. They want you to spend as much as possible for more expensive products. People pay thousands of dollars for a phone since cheaper means worse so pricier means better. How about we replace cheap with affordable? The exactly same products on Amazon are three times more expensive but somehow they’re better? Give me a break
Should have done a blind study, meaning somehow cover up or don't tell the testers, that it's from Temu, it's difficult because the signs are on the products.
Can i just throw out some advice. I highly recommend not buying extremely cheap tech from places like Temu. Most of these are made in China from companies we don’t know are even legit. A lot of these products connect to your phone and wifi and now some random people in China now have access to your location and info that could easily be used to hack into your stuff.
You get what you paid for. Learnt the hard way. Own a sports bar in Vegas with twelve 75in TV's. These Samsung TV's stayed on for 18 hours daily for 8 years and never had issues, image quality was always top notch. Then I replaced them for cheap TLC 85in TV's at fraction of cost of Samsung's. Big mistake, after using these TLC's for just over a year, one by one, screen started to burn and never turned on again, not even sound would work, and since the warranty was good for only 12 months, had no choice but to get new TV's again. Went back to Samsung's obviously. When it comes to eletronics or smart devices, stick with brand names, don't make the same mistake I did, and avoid that Hisense, TLC and other chinese brand knock offs. They are cheap for a reason.
That’s why I rather sticking with name brands, before they go in sell and drop in price, since I’m able to go on base, I do see some new TV’s that we get in every couple of years. As I see some flat screen tvs that have been sitting for like two years, get discounted for good price. Not like with Temu, getting them cheaply, is not the same as for getting it for sale price or discounted price.
@@astrocoastalprocessor Samsung makes the actual panel that goes in most TVs, LG makes the other half basically. Samsung will not be selling out their TV division nor LG as they are the top two panel makers.
I bought lot of things but the ones I highly recommend I've been using for a year is electronic bathroom cleaning product, massagers (amazing for the price), and organizers. I also buy screen protector as they are the same on amazon from dropshipping. I also bought a to go blender and its been working great for 2 years. So it really depends what you buy
I love it when people think this way. Not sure people know, but the same products are from China, even those made in America. My business is thriving because of people like you, as I just buy the same products from Temu, repackage it, brand it, and then sell it back for 2-5x the price depending on the product (on Amazon and target)
Do you really think anyone cares? To give you an example: people throw away food that is still good and they didn't eat it. It doesn't think that an animal gave its life so that you could feed yourself and what you do is throw it away. Let's not become moralists. In life no one cares about anyone and anything. only one thinks of oneself.
Yes, exactly. And asking for your information to get taken and sold to unsafe places, like the CCP. I deleted my temu account after I got that letter and investigated my purchases.
Yes exactly! Also temu takes your info and sells it to dangerous places. I deleted my temu account after I got that letter and investigated my purchases. I was warned, but my mom and my shopping addiction said "it'll be fiiine"
If you’re typing this on a iPhone or a Samsung you support forced labor the majority of products you buy no matter what brand it is that comes from China you support forced labor
I don’t buy electronics from Temu. It’s useless. I often buy sponges, storage containers, small kitchen gadgets like can opener and ice cream scooper. So far no returns on those items.
This! There are certain items that are comparable, but if you try compare the higher priced or more complex items, of course you’re going to notice the difference. People need to have realistic expectations when buying on Temu, AliExpress, SHEIN, etc.
I bought some t-shits and was so disappointed with the material. So now, I stayed away from Temu clothes ... although some are so cute, especially PJs, but I promised not to buy clothes from Temu
@bostonlilac quality isn't always the best. You really need to read description ( thought I was buying Jean shorts and they we spandex) but again for the price if I get a few things here and there that are not desirable I don't really complain. Plus they have let me return anything that I didn't want without a hassle.
If I happen to get a dud or two of clothes that don't fit right. I out them in a donate bag. I'm a senior and I can't get around like I used to, so I pay it forward. Being g plus sized, I figure there may be other ladies that can use the clothes/shoes
My friend purchased an Air Fryer Toaster Oven for under $25 from TEMU. Unfortunately, the appliance's power supply burned out - spreading to the wall socket and the electric circuit, causing smoke and heat to damage a part of the kitchen cabinets. The damage ended up costing him a significant amount to repair. He admits it was a poor decision to buy such a cheap appliance but considers himself lucky to have been in the kitchen at the time to control the fire and minimize the damage.
With Temu I only stick to low priced things and no clothes over $5. Recently I ordered various small items such as plastic gloves, sewing notions etc. When I was over the minimum amount for free shipping I started to check out and my total was $15 more than original total! Turns out if item is from "local warehouse" there's additional charge. Something new. Buyer beware! I deleted all those items.
Unfortunately, we’re a society that likes cheap stuff and no matter how many people expose these companies UA-camrs influencers people generally are gonna continue to support people making this stuff bye buying crap which ends up in the land fill
yes, this is how my business is thriving. the anti-chinese sentiment is the main reason I am able to profit off of people on Amazon and sell it places like Target
@@TroyDanielStoverALXanderI’m not really sure where you’re getting this from. Amazon has been criticised for selling thousands of dangerous counterfeit items for years now.
I bought quite a few things from Temu that are non tech. Im actually honestly impressed on what i got so far. Especially the shoes which i got are really nice. I would not recommend buying anything tech on Temu but everything else is fine.
Been with Temu close to 2 years. No serious issues except one time, and that was on the postal service lost my items, but Temu refunded all the money i spent and also a $5 credit. I've bought shoes, clothes, handbags, costume jewelry, dinnerware and flatware, and have had no issues. I am very aware of how these sites work, so I buy what I'm familiar with. I dont purchase electronics bc I already know how dodgy those can be. I shop from Amazon as well and even Amazon can have some dodgy items as well, but for me, again, no problems. It's all about being shopping conscious about what you purchase.
I love temu. I don't buy things that require quality to function well. Instead I buy house hold things like sponges, cell phone holders, USB cables, flash lights, gardening supplies, pet toys, socks, sewing supplies. Don't buy things that you'll eat out of, any electronics other than small gadgets.
Been with Temu 2 years. only had one issue that was very minor. Have gotten shoes, dresses, purses and jewelry, dinnerware and flatware from Temu. No issues and my orders came within or earlier than the alloted time slot.
So do charities. They sell lists of donors' details. And here in the UK local governments do it. I have an email that I use just for Temu, I also add a little something when I sign up for something so if I get mail or anything with that anomaly I know where they got my data from.
Just read reviews. Some items are garbage but going by reviews always helps. I order a lot on there and I love almost every single item but I take the time to research 🤷🏽♀️
Have 2 pairs of boots from them: cost $15-20, no liner/insole. Last 6 months in construction. Comparing to Air Force 1 Nikes in same conditions you will get 2-3 years of use.
The same goes for eBay and Amazon. I don’t know why people are so brainwashed into thinking that western platforms are any safer, more trustworthy or better.
This is so true. I bought some shelf liner from Amazon. Saw the same rolls in temu for less than half the price. I ordered a roll to check it out.... Confirmed SAME thing.
it's not amazon that's selling it, it's dropshippers. but you're right, always searcg the product by its image and often you'll find its cheap temu junk
Yea thats the way sheep think😂😂😂 ive been buying cheap like this for years. Like over twenty years. Started with ebay now i get my cheap cool clothes from shein now. Neber ever had a problem. If i did then they refund no problem and i buy again
I feel like half the crap on Amazon is a marked up version of the Temu stuff. Quality control and protecting copyrights is complete crap on Amazon too. Their edge is definitely the fast shipping though.
I've found things like socks and some clothing items to equivalent to JCP, but a fraction of the price. Many of the craft supplies are equal in quality to Hobby Lobby and Michael's. Electronics, I do proceed with caution. I did buy some ear buds thst looked a lot like Apple's last year and they still work! The idea of buying them, was going to be traveling and didn't want to risk loosing an expensive pair.
I’ve shopped at Temu for over a Year and have always been treated Fairly and they have quickly refunded my Money for a few Items that didn’t work for me and you have 3 Months to get that Refund with Free Return Shipping and if the Price of an Item that you bought is reduced ..within a Month of your Purchase…then you get an instant Credit for the difference in the Price you Paid and the lower Price. Happy Shopping! 😊
Low quality products, rising cost of manufacturing and rising cost of living. Lower the cost of manufacturing, lower the cost of living, increase the quality of products. I’ll be willing to pay more for a product that last decades instead of paying less for a product that has to be replaced every couple of months. I want quality over quantity.
I'll take my chances, sometimes they are the exact same items, where do you think Nike makes their shoes? Sure sometimes things are a little off but I can live with it for 50% off %
@@Native722 Me too, really, as long as I go in with my eyes open. I'm currently waiting on delivery of an Android smartwatch GPS/4G phone (takes a nanoSIM card, and Apple Watch bands) that cost me 50USD on aliexpress. I'll see what happens when it gets here.
I buy all my crafting goods from Temu and I'm happy with the cost and quality. I've bought clothing and I know I'm getting what I pay for, but I did buy boots for $15 that turned out to be way mor comfortable than Skechers one at five times the price. They are also fair on customer service. One package was missing one item, a $2 storage box, and they refunded the entire package worth over $30 even after I told them it was only one item. I also like the price adjustment feature and I've had zero problems with returns and refunds. What I find sad is the people buying tons of stuff simply to make video content for their channel and the losers who actually watch them. I wonder how much of that stuff is returned to Temu after filming. I had one video pop up in my suggestions and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
I heard someone say that about 75% of what you order will be worth it and I tend to agree. Mostly I noticed that decor with writing is often misspelled and things are often smaller than they appear online but there are definitely some unique items on there.
I’m too paranoid to shop from Temu, I’m afraid the products will have spyware attached to it. I have nothing to hide but I also want nothing shared. I don’t even have the app on my phone. 😂
I love Temu, just dont buy electric items, they won't be good, or they broke fast. Buy cat house for stray cats and leave it outdoors. I recommend buying anything else. Just make sure u check the measurements of the items.
Generally these products don't last long. Also their prices and Temu's strategy leads to compulsive shopping or buying things you end up not using. The overall effect is more garbage, that's the biggest problem. From clothes to electronics, it's all ending up in landfills at a ridiculous pace.
Just be selective and be especially wary of electronics. Same argument why you can buy some things at family dollar stores or say the generic "Walmart" branded options. Housewares, school supplies, textiles and anything that you don't need to be extraordinary sturdy.
I just used it for the first time last night, but it was some storage bins that you can buy on Amazon but for about 2/3 of the price and some cleaning supplies. Simple things and no electronics. Now it is a waiting game.
Temu’s business model is the rely on the gullibility of the American public who buy this crap based on Tik Tok videos made by influencers paid by Temu to hawk their products. No wonder they can afford to put on commercials during the Super Bowl.
I would be hesitant to buy anything from Temu that has contact with food, they use cheap materials and rush making products which may be food safety hazards. I would also not buy any electronics because they likely won't work well and may be fire hazards.
when the internal components melt and leach materials, at least it'll be hard to know unless it smells funny, looks strange, tastes weird or makes you sick probably great products until the warranty expires - if the warranty would even be honored
I could have told you all this junk they're hustling into this country is poor quality.... That's why I make a fortune selling items on Facebook marketplace from estate sales and garage sales quality vintage made in USA goods like Pyrex CorningWare Westinghouse old school made in America products small kitchen appliances blenders etc we are sick and tired of all this poor quality throw away junk made in foreign countries. Here in Indiana my side hustle is astounding selling these made in America vintage goods I find
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Temu!! DOZENS of items that I can ACTUALLY afford!! I've been shopping them for OVER A YEAR, and not disappointed YET!! When you live on $1200/month and STILL want to eat, AND need things, it's the ONLY place to go!! Hints: READ descriptions. Don't buy what you DON'T need. USE the refund policy AND price adjustments. You will NOT be disappointed!!
Tech products are dicy . The charger I bought heated up at melded into my phone ruining it. Had to buy a new one. So in saving a few dollars ended spending 600.

@@KeleWele23False. The factories selling this stuff don’t get a dime. They do it to get their name out there to western consumers.

Companies lowering the prices on some of their products wouldn't hurt either.

I bought furnitures lately from Temu and they are actually pretty well made.
It. Depends. What. You. Buy
Who tf buys a temu espresso machine??
Low quality products, rising cost of manufacturing and rising cost of living. Lower the cost of manufacturing, lower the cost of living, increase the quality of products. I’ll be willing to pay more for a product that last decades instead of paying less for a product that has to be replaced every couple of months. I want quality over quantity.
You're buying Chinese knock-offs. You takes yer chances...
exactly
I'll take my chances, sometimes they are the exact same items, where do you think Nike makes their shoes? Sure sometimes things are a little off but I can live with it for 50% off %
@@Native722 Me too, really, as long as I go in with my eyes open. I'm currently waiting on delivery of an Android smartwatch GPS/4G phone (takes a nanoSIM card, and Apple Watch bands) that cost me 50USD on aliexpress. I'll see what happens when it gets here.
So, all they did was test if the products work but didn't test the difference in chemical components of the comparible items?? This is important.
I buy all my crafting goods from Temu and I'm happy with the cost and quality. I've bought clothing and I know I'm getting what I pay for, but I did buy boots for $15 that turned out to be way mor comfortable than Skechers one at five times the price.
They are also fair on customer service. One package was missing one item, a $2 storage box, and they refunded the entire package worth over $30 even after I told them it was only one item.
I also like the price adjustment feature and I've had zero problems with returns and refunds.
What I find sad is the people buying tons of stuff simply to make video content for their channel and the losers who actually watch them. I wonder how much of that stuff is returned to Temu after filming. I had one video pop up in my suggestions and I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
I like temu also
I've actually bought lots of things off Temu for my wedding and so far it's been fantastic 🎉
This is the most useful thing I've seen from mainstream media since 2016...
No. Someone gave us a pair of temu, shoes that their child couldn't fit. My son was able to wear them about 2 or 3 times before they fell apart.
I heard someone say that about 75% of what you order will be worth it and I tend to agree. Mostly I noticed that decor with writing is often misspelled and things are often smaller than they appear online but there are definitely some unique items on there.
One time trial isn’t going to tell you anything. It’s not going to last.
These type of products probably have a ton of chemicals
I have concerns about the non-electronics being safe. Haven’t some items from China contained alarming amounts of lead in the paint?
Sure on the surface it might seem similar to the brand name product how much spyware and lead does the product come with, or how long it will last 😅
What's a Temu? 🤔
When a Chinese company steals the design from a name brand it can get close but not close enough. Avoid buying junk.
Buying crap we don't need with money we don't have. Which pile of useless crap is better?
These are just the prices items should be
Never shopped on Temu ...😒
I’m too paranoid to shop from Temu, I’m afraid the products will have spyware attached to it. I have nothing to hide but I also want nothing shared. I don’t even have the app on my phone. 😂
I love Temu, just dont buy electric items, they won't be good, or they broke fast.
Buy cat house for stray cats and leave it outdoors.
I recommend buying anything else. Just make sure u check the measurements of the items.
I bought a package off of them it was supposed to come November 24th it still hasn't came and it's been saying stuck in transit for 10 days
Doesn't hurt to try some things
Generally these products don't last long. Also their prices and Temu's strategy leads to compulsive shopping or buying things you end up not using. The overall effect is more garbage, that's the biggest problem. From clothes to electronics, it's all ending up in landfills at a ridiculous pace.
Temu just seems too good to be true. Idk what it is, but that company is up to something… it’s a gut feeling.
Most if not all of their items are junk! I once bought a product like this on eBay and it did not last one day. You truly get what you pay for.
Just be selective and be especially wary of electronics. Same argument why you can buy some things at family dollar stores or say the generic "Walmart" branded options. Housewares, school supplies, textiles and anything that you don't need to be extraordinary sturdy.
I always bought a lot of stuff from Temu and never have any problems
🇨🇳 probably hacked her whole life story with that ring and app. lol
I just used it for the first time last night, but it was some storage bins that you can buy on Amazon but for about 2/3 of the price and some cleaning supplies. Simple things and no electronics. Now it is a waiting game.
The old saying still holds true: You get what you pay for. Lower cost = lower quality.
Beware of Chinese electronic products, it might explode - Jackie Chan 😂😂😂
bought a hanheld console and the screen went kaput in 2 days. wasn't worth it.
Temu’s business model is the rely on the gullibility of the American public who buy this crap based on Tik Tok videos made by influencers paid by Temu to hawk their products. No wonder they can afford to put on commercials during the Super Bowl.
Cheap Chinese products are never the answer.
I would be hesitant to buy anything from Temu that has contact with food, they use cheap materials and rush making products which may be food safety hazards. I would also not buy any electronics because they likely won't work well and may be fire hazards.
Best part part of the video is her newsprint shirt at the end. Great theme dressing.
Worth it? No... Saved you 5 minutes. You're welcome.
yea this news channel is a joke
@Len1977gt it seems like they just hit on popular trends.
To me, it's worth it. A lot of times you'll find the exact same items on Temu on Amazon but just a lot cheaper.
@Native722 Yep, and it won't last creating more e-waste. Go you 👍
when the internal components melt and leach materials, at least it'll be hard to know unless it smells funny, looks strange, tastes weird or makes you sick
probably great products until the warranty expires - if the warranty would even be honored
I could have told you all this junk they're hustling into this country is poor quality.... That's why I make a fortune selling items on Facebook marketplace from estate sales and garage sales quality vintage made in USA goods like Pyrex CorningWare Westinghouse old school made in America products small kitchen appliances blenders etc we are sick and tired of all this poor quality throw away junk made in foreign countries. Here in Indiana my side hustle is astounding selling these made in America vintage goods I find
i told my mom i didn’t want any temu or shein stuff as gifts and she got soooooo offended.
More junk to fill landfills. Extremely sad.
Temu and shien for me is ok for clothes only and other garments. For house stuff like kettle and house decorations yeah it's good.
I buy from temu but never electronics … I buy decorations … basic kitchen stuff !!!
A lot of the clothes on temu are made with toxic material wayyyy over what’s regarded as “safe” so I would just not buy from the app in general
Where do you think your clothes are made from? China
🎉sometimes there are good items other times not
Definitely don’t leave the app on your phone if you do buy anything….
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Temu!! DOZENS of items that I can ACTUALLY afford!!
I've been shopping them for OVER A YEAR, and not disappointed YET!!
When you live on $1200/month and STILL want to eat, AND need things, it's the ONLY place to go!!
Hints:
READ descriptions.
Don't buy what you DON'T need.
USE the refund policy AND price adjustments.
You will NOT be disappointed!!
So they bought six items from Temu… This is like high school level journalism. Newsflash! A $14 smart watch isn’t great.
Temu is very good for plastic products but not for tech
Tech products are dicy . The charger I bought heated up at melded into my phone ruining it. Had to buy a new one. So in saving a few dollars ended spending 600.
short answer: No
long answer: NNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Saved you 5 minutes
Obviously the more expensive items are better. But for the price difference they're aren't that much better lol
So half the stuff is garbage. I've never bought from Temu, and don't plan to. I have enough junk in my house. No need to add to it.
I like Temu.
Do people even for think for one moment before buying that, employees at this place maybe be horribly paid
If paid at all.
Why is America failing...?
1/5 purchases are made on Chinese websites...
And 4/5 products are made in China
