What is Temu?
Temu-Jin, just instead of plunder, Usians are (well, were) getting cheap treats.
Like AliExpress but shittier I think.
Basically just skip the a**zon markup for timely delivery and go right to the source
It’s basically the same but with a really annoying app and dealing with returns is much easier because you’re dealing with a more centralized entity rather than the sellers. You get better deals on aliexpress but if something’s wrong with what you got it can be a big/bigger pain.
Honestly both websites were really useful if you knew when to use them. Now we’re all back to being stuck overpaying some dropshipper dipshit
I see, thank you.
shitty online shop based in china that's popular in america because instead of shipping in bulk to warehouses in the US to distribute their stuff, they would send each individual item directly thus avoiding tariffs due to the "de minimis" loophole. one trump is eliminating de minimis for china meaning tariffs apply and two trump is putting crazy tariffs on china, the result being temu orders getting cancelled or incredibly expensive.
the person in the screenshot is oblivious to this fact so they ordered a lot of shit from temu and now im assuming their orders are getting cancelled.
