Abt Time for TEMU Purchases Update. ?Recommend?

[ Edited ]

Hi,  QChatters  

TEMU Ads continue to pop up when perusing other various Webpages. 

        Temu items continue to be soooo blessed tempting, still.  The items, *and* esp the prices!

 

It's been awhile since checking in with ppl who purchased from Temu.

 

Any purchases you made? 

Have you been satisfied?

Any problems?

Do you recommend purchasing from TEMU?

Any advice?

 

TIA (Thx In Advance)

 

 

 

(corrected  "Tenu" to correct "TEMU"    Thx @I am still oxox )

Sorry but do you mean TEMU 

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

It pops up when I am playing solitaire but it is one of the easier ones to close.  I do have ad blockers.

@JoyFilled Warrior.  Proceed with Temu only if you wish to turn your personal information over to the Chinese government.  I wouldn't touch it.

If you just a pop up blocker you won't get them.  I actually forgot that pop up ads were a thing because I never get them.  I think you meant Temu.  I haven't bought anything in a month or so but I do check them out and their prices haven't changed at all.  No surprise there because if I'm sure it will take them a long time to adjust prices on hundreds of thousands of items.

I'm a big time Temu shopper, and I've never had any problems with them - Started shopping there, since I saw their ads during last year's Super Bowl. Smiley Wink

 

While a few of the items I've purchased ended up looking "cheap," I've been pleased with 95% of everything I bought...

 

From household/kitchen gadgets and novelties, to tunic tops, t-shirts, sweatpants and sweatshirts, costume jewelry, dresses, shoes and boots, to hair products, purses and readers.

 

Oh, and I've only used Paypal to pay for my purchases, from the very beginning, because I was skeptical of the company at first too.

They take Paypal!  That's a great idea!! I've never had any problem with Paypal.  Thanks!

 

I've been looking at the Nail Decorations, Jewelry, Plaques, maybe Wreaths,  not so much body clothes. - altho maybe warm shoe/boots/slippers

Yes, forgot to mention that I was very pleased with the Pre-lit (battery-operated) Christmas Wreath I bought last year - It was beautiful. ♥

 

And I'm actually wearing a pair of Cabin Socks that have been amazing this (unusually cold) winter - Will definitely order another pair soon.

@LavernLuvsShoes @JoyFilled Warrior -- You say you use PayPal but Temu doesn't "attack" your account.  It quietly installs little gremlins in your phone, tablet or computer.  Then it watches what you do.  

 

It's China's way of seeing what US citizens are up to.
