I don't trust Temu

They are called "Drop Ship Companies."
Basically, "TEMU," and other online stores like them, take your order, then give that order to a wholesaler in China, and that wholesaler fills the order and sends the ordered item directly to the consumer. "TEMU" doesn't have warehouses nor inventory to buy or carry, so it is a very inexpensive business to run. The biggest problem to face is orders being filled wrong, returns, and refunds.
The profits are huge though, if you price your products right you can charge $19.99 for an item that costs only 1 or 2 dollars from the wholesaler.

Yeah, I was wondering too.

So here is the deal with them.....

They are drop shippers as someone has already explained.

But, from MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE with TEMU, the clothes you get look great in their catalog but the "sizes" are a little wacky and they are made of thinner material than one would expect...... in other words the quality is just not up to par.

I have ordered some things from TEMU only problem was it takes longer to get . not great equability but it still works i got a small battery charger 17.00 and some electrical connectors no problem with them .

I bought an item from them. They are a bit deceitful in their ads. Read very carefully. I deleted thier app afterwards

You're right to not trust them...

Do you have an Apple phone?

there is a radio personality that does a computer-related talk show and here's her take

I don't trust it either.

not to mention, someone on tiktok was just saying how temu took 500$ out of their bank. lol. ppl have been getting their card/accounts hacked and alot of ppls money getting stolen thru that site.

It's a known fact they use child labour, do not use this company
