Title: temu and other chinese online retailers
Post by: steve dave on October 02, 2023, 07:20:04 AM
trying to assemble pieces for various halloween costumes for my dozens of children led us to this place. I ordered like 28 things for around $10 delivered. what the hell is going on? 100% guaranteed it will all be garbage and probably toxic but how can you even ship garbage poison for that price? it's also fun to just scroll through all the bizarre nonsense they sell.

Is TEMU the new Ali Express?

I bought some bootleg jerseys (Mahomes/Bo Jackson) off Ali Express and decided to throw in some fake world series/super bowl rings as well....Total was like $60  :sdeek:

Will try this TEMU as well.

As far as little SD, I am going to guess Dog the Bounty Hunter.

1. That's a great costume idea, SD. I was going to be M3GAN but I might change my mind. I'll need to decide in 24 hours. I'll buy the real glasses though, so I can wear them after Halloween.
2. My elderly mother keeps buying my kids stuff off temu and I keep having to throw them away. Yesterday, she gave my 4 year old some reinflatable ball/balloon thingie. I took it out of the package and it smelled like it was soaked in all the chemicals. It also required me to blow it up via a plastic tube. I was very afraid that the chemical ball was going to blow up in my face.

Great for kids crap, also we've (obviously not me) returned stuff or tried to and the majority of the time they just have us keep the crap and refund.

Ordered Lil' SF a random baseball Jersey from DH Gate. It may or may not be Nike, but it looks pretty great and was $30 instead of $300. I really just did it for a test as I've heard of people buying stuff like this from these sites. It went pretty great. Took about a month plus a week or so though. It was also pretty LOL communicating with the seller via the app.

I'm surprised that stupid fitz's customer service communication experience didn't go swimmingly here.

Maybe I have better luck dealing with people that speak absolutely zero English?  :dunno:

I have two expenses ordering uniforms on DHGate. I ordered a red sox city connect jersey and it looked fine but they invited the name of the player on the jersey and the red sox don't put player names on the home uniform. After the first wash it developed color blotches. It also took two months to arrive. I ended up buying the real thing.

Last winter I attempted to order a sporting kansas city jersey. The seller lied to me about the shipment and literally made up a tracking number. After three months without receiving the jersey I attempted to get my $20 back via the conflict resolution on DHGate. Again the seller lied and said the jersey was sent, that bought them a couple of weeks more time. The seller missed the deadline by two days. Two days after the deadline was missed and my refund was awarded the package arrived. Instead of sending me a sporting kansas city jersey, they sent me a pair of lace crotchless panties.

No more DHGate for me.

LOL. yeah, this was most likely a one time deal. The jersey looks great, but the feel of it is weird and i'm sure we will have the same experience after a couple of washes. Lil SF loves it so he hasn't even worn it yet because he doesn't want to get it dirty. Ha. Prob breaking it out for Halloween.

She actually opened the package. It took so long that I had already gone up to Minnesota for the summer. She showed me the package while we were video chatting and I said, I don't think that's a jersey. If I hadn't spent literally months complaining about the jersey, I might have had some explaining to do.
