I had no idea what Temu was. It just started showing up everywhere one day and honestly the site.... Well.... it does feel kind of scamy. I really can't lie about that. It does. Idk if it IS scamy, but it just comes off that way to me. I usually look stuff up on AliExpress before checking any US retailers anyway. At least for uncommon items.

I've ordered maybe 5 times from them and never had any problem, my orders arrived in a week with all the items every time.

Ive heard rumors about credit card stealing, so I pay with PayPal just to be safe.
