I think the real Q is haa anyone ordered fun temu? The prices seem too good to be true.

Someone I know got a bunch of cheapie kids toys from there and said it was all legit and fast shipping.

I tried. Got an email 4 days later with a refund and a $10 credit to use. Not sure what the go is

@brave @Goddess_Amaterasu *raises hand* yup, is basically mostly $2 shop type stuff, some good kitchen bits & bobs for cheap, best buy so far has been an under cabinet light which works flawlessly with motion detection for $12, and a really good plug hair catcher with excellent suction cups that I viewed dubiously when opening, for $1.50. A few things I haven't found that useful or cheaper quality than images suggest.

What’s the shipping turn around

[–] kudra@aus.social 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

@Goddess_Amaterasu not too bad, about 1-2 weeks. if you order a bunch of stuff they may come in several packages a few days apart. They say they give you a part refund if shipping takes longer than they estimate, mine were well within the time frame they gave.

@Goddess_Amaterasu that's Temu btw, Catch was much faster less than a week

Thank you for your input. It kinda reminds me of AliExpress but quicker
