They don't list the price, but it is lower than it used to be. I wonder if shipping is free. That's gotta weigh several tons. πŸ˜‚

Looks like a model to me although a decent quality model.

Imagine ordering that for your construction company and getting a toy. I don't want to click and be deluged with mail from Temu, but I'm sure the description would say that it's a toy. It looks like a very nice model, though. If it has a motor and remote control, I'd be tempted.

Well, now I did it! I looked on Temu, and it is remote control! I paid $22.20, including delivery. I'll play with it a bit and then give it to the grandson of a friend. He loves heavy duty equipment.

Let us know how it works, Jerry. Temu is addictive, isn’t it?
Looks like shipping comes in from JFK and Chicago ORD (for East Coast orders) now for holidays, via UPS and China.
Unbelievable UPS and USPS free shipping via AIR now, no sea freight.

Oh my God! Looks like the beginning of a new chapter. Seems like my prediction is going to come true.

I'm still not a fan of Temu, but I like the looks of this bulldozer. I'm sure I will have many enjoyable minutes playing with it. πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹

It has been shipped, and I have a UPS tracking number. It should arrive on about Dec 23. If it arrives after the 21st, I get $5.00 credit. How can they afford to send that here by plane without charging me?

With the 8% discount, Amazon has it for double the price.

I actually ordered one of these and got skunked. When it showed up it was the size of a Hotwheels car. Was hoping it was at least giant Tonka size. Wrong. Junk.

Time will tell, and I'll let you know what I receive.

1:24 scale.

I have been very skiddish with TEMU. I had ordered a few items and never received them. I later learned that my credit card was hacked and cancelled the card. The bank issued me a replacement. TEMU is now off-limits for me.
