@LTT1 

 

I agree.  Much of what they sell is made in the same factories that retailers here

get their stuff.

No, and I never will.  It's a Chinese company with many horror stories.

Re: Has anyone bought anything from Temu?

I haven't tried ordering from China and will not!!  I try not buying anything made in China in the state in which I live.  

 

What I want is manufacturing in America -- again.  People need jobs and I like the quality from America, not China.

 

If goods are once again made in America, we shouldn't have to pay exorbitant prices. 

 

I'm hoping things will change.

No--and won't--same with the one called Shein--I get prob 20 emails a day from those 2 and no way to unsubscribe/block---can't imagine how many more if I  ordered---

No way would I buy anything from them. I can make better shopping choices.


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Re: Has anyone bought anything from Temu?

I've purchased many things from Temu but mostly those marked "local warehouse" which come very quickly.  I have had no issues whatsoever with quality or delivery.  I was hesitant to order from them for a long time until I realized I was buying some of the same items from the same vendors on Amazon.

@qualitygal  - I've never ordered from them, but I have friends that have.  They have been satisfied and never been scammed.

 

I didn't know know they were partnering with Amazon.  I think that's great.

I just heard a story that Amazon is going into competition with Temu and Shein.  They're just getting it started so only offering a few products right now, but at very low prices.  Delivery will be longer--more like a couple of weeks instead of days--but they say they're monitoring the quality.

 

I forgot what they're calling it.


It's called Amazon Haul

Thanks!  I knew it had a separate name but I couldn't remember it! 🤦‍♀️

My husband has and he liked the things he's ordered, but had I had him get me a couple of things with one of his orders and I wasn't impressed.

Re: Has anyone bought anything from Temu?

I have two friends who buy from Temu and both have been pleased. I found out from one when I complemented her jacket, the other was wool sweater cardigan.

Neither friend is financially challenged so can buy whatever, wherever they wish, but would rather not pay a middleman and huge markups.
