Although Jerry didn't think so I believe Temu isn't good now but will be in the future and Jerry would be one of their frequent customers. That's my prediction. Give it about 5 to 10 years.

I just looked, and they have a dual-camera drone for $9.18. Really? 😂

I have placed about twenty orders with TEMU and am generally very satisfied. I recently ordered three Kodak branded 256 GB flash drive (USB 3.1) to back up computer files. These thumb drives are very high quality, and over 230 GB usable storage capacity. They cost only $13.22 each postage free. You must be very carefull when ordering to be sure you are ordering what you want, because their listings can be misleading. Don'r assume the picture, or quantity, they show in the listing is what you are getting. Read, and re-read carefully. Orders generally take about two weeks and their comunication, and tracking info, is very good. Quality on really low cost items is not high, but keep in mind the price paid. Also, many items (that seem to be identical) appear frequently in different areas at different prices.

I've seen products from Wish reviewed online - generally, junk.

I read awhile back from a reputable source that there is malware attached to their software. Supposably it just rests in the background and sends data about logins ect ect. They said it was extremely hard to find and even more difficult to remove.

I've heard the same thing, and now I'm getting Temu ads on UHH.

It's not about the quality of the products or the time it takes to arrive. It's the fact China is using this company to get personal information from the buyers as well as installing malware. Why would we knowingly support China to build up their economy while ours gets further depressed. Like Jerry posted, a drone for $9. They are selling stuff cheap to achieve their other slimy purposes.

I think that's exactly the concern. China is becoming a powerhouse with our help, directly and indirectly. Consider all the technology we gave them so they could make virtually everything we buy. There are so many things we can no longer make because we lack the technology and the machinery. They don't need research. They have spying and western companies to move them to the top of the mountain.

Their prices are like companies selling printers for $50 so you'll pay twice that for the ink - forever.

But it's too late now that he is deep down the ocean now. I tried my best to talk people out of buying Chinese stuff in the early days when they had the option not to and the Chinese stuff were very bad. Today it's no longer a choice. I give up.

I order a lot from Temu. Great customer service and prices AND free shipping. I primarily order craft items which cost 4x as much at the local craft stores. I have also ordered quite a few clothing items which have proven to be of good quality.

Have you researched this company on the internet. Horrible regarding their ties to China spying.

I have bought a lot of stuff from them that I never would have thought of, and could not have found anywhere else. Not top quality, generally, but all ultra cheap. Delivery usually 10 days or so, not a month.

I don't think their spying on me would yield much! Lol.
