Temu: What you need to know about the hot shopping app

Why are we suspicious of temu because it’s cheap when companies like Amazon are giving us the same products but way more expensive and honestly many other companies sell our information as well, but because they are expensive we don’t suspect them cause they must have good quality products for the expensive price 😢😢😢

[@GamerFunly]

[@GamerFunly]

What do u want from us bro

[@minxili3317]

Exactly. So many people are criticizing Temu but forget that American companies are also the same. Their reasons for not supporting Temu can also be applied to American companies as well. American companies also steal and sell our information, are environmentally unfriendly, use cheap materials to make our stuff (nearly everything sold in America is made in China), and use sweat shop workers as well (both in America and in 3rd world countries). Everybody sees China and starts acting scared when America has been doing the exact same thing.

So is TEMU like WISH or replacing wish? To me it seems very similar. Anyone have any info on if it is similar or replacing WISH? I have purchased through wish and yes you get what you paid for but was never disappointed with it. My issue with TEMU is sizing in clothes. Since it is mostly from China we'll the Chinese for some reason size their clothes smaller then they are sized in the USA. An example a women's plus size 24 on wish would be their size 5XL. I am wondering if it is similar. I have found some really cute jumpers but do not want to get them and they not fit because I do not want to send them back. I just never messed with clothes on Wish. Thanks if anyone has any info on their clothes. I know they are not going to be top quality but for cost I'm ok with that.

I saw a review on Temu from myself that I DID NOT WRITE , had my photo next to it saying I said it was true to size,.. I did buy the dress but it was way too small, I bought it because other reviews said true to size.. I guessed they didn’t expect me to look at the reviews since I had already bought the dress.. no one has a photo wearing the dress in the reviews. nor did it give me the option to.. I’m done with Temu.

The order of your story details was confusing at first. So you mean they made a false 'positive' review using your user info? Did you return or exchange the dress? If so, that makes it even worse.

[@Fiedman]

While I fundamentally agree with your argument the sad reality is, is that as the cost of living increases and wages don’t more and more people are going to turn to servers like Temu to save a buck or two so they can use that money on other things they need. Unfortunately people who make minimum wage don’t usually take child labour, and working conditions into account, they are more focused on their own needs and survival.

[@SabrinaMarina]

@@Fiedman While I unfortunately agree with you, and I'm not putting the blame on people that are struggling, I completely understand if you buy something once in a while because you can't otherwise. But let's be honest...are the things you can buy on temu really things that are necessary in life or are they mostly just cheap crap that nobody actually needs to survive? I think most of their success comes from people buying things they don't need. People buy things just to make themselves feel better, or out of boredom or just to follow the latest trend...

[@foreverealm]

The information in this video is serious and true. The parent company got in big trouble for somehow putting hidden advanced tracking in customers’ phones. Hidden programs difficult for military to unearth and remove. Among other things, the ability to remotely cause your phone to stop working. There are articles about this in major, reputable news publications. I had asked the Q, what is China getting in exchange for practically giving away all of these merchandises. If every Temu customer now becomes vulnerable to China having the ability to shut those phones down, that would be very handy, militarily. Totally worth giving away shoes, makeup, markers and mini washers.
