Hate to say it, but online shopping beats brick and mortar simply because it’s easier to get what you want.

I went to a Sport Check just now, they don’t sell laceless running shoes.

I went to Best Buy just now, they don’t sell 60” inch TV—never mind a dumb (not smart) TV.

Once again, I go with Amazon simply because it has what I’m looking for.

I do the same, however, is going down the drain, too being "enshittified" with low-value Chinese products, in contrast to at rather Western price tags.
What is still useful are the user evaluations.
After reading them, I use and price-search engines to find these products at about the same or even a lesser price.
The only real exception being when I do need something "tomorrow."
Also, some chain-stores will offer the same price as Amazon, etc.

Could Temu kindly F Off. no I am not collaborating with you for shit. I don’t care how much you offer me. I’m about to set my Avanan email security suite to just quarantine anything from temu.com.

I will NEVER promote or recommend anything I personally wouldn’t use myself. Plain and simple. My audience knows this and I ain’t in it for the money. I’m in it for the community. Any money goes right back to tinkering and content. My audience knows this.

"Awesome Skilletrafo & High Quality Here On Temu."

A while back, in response to a horror story from @gcluley about an Amazon order that went badly wrong, I mentioned we were trying Temu for the first time. Some asked to report back about our experience.
The order process was smooth, with an expectation set of a delivery date of last Saturday, 6th. We could track the order at every step, and saw a week earlier that it had arrived in the UK and cleared customs. Then tracking went silent.
Three days later, a box appeared on the tracking page

@withaveeay If you can live to have changed from the devil to hell, well. 🙄 Behind #Temu is a Chinese e-commerce giant. Apart from their worst effects on the environment (#CO2 footprint/ #fastFashion, #waste), you are promoting the worst working conditions, destroying of sellers outside of China by dumping prices, tax fraud, counterfeit, and other problems. Perhaps you didn't know: https://time.com/6243738/temu-app-complaints/ and here: https://www.greenmatters.com/small-changes/why-is-temu-so-cheap
You can find many articles about that pest.

Beim Online-Billigmarktplatz #Temu mit Ware aus China und manipulativen Praktiken gilt es europäisches Verbraucherschutzrecht durchzusetzen, statt nach neuen Regeln zu rufen - das erklärte ich heute auf ZDF heute live.

Some of my valuable finds from Temu.

Shoes were $10
Pocket watch $4

Not embarrassing! lol

There are good shorts and t-shirts there. Normal ones or weird if you want. They also have POTUS and MAGA if you're into that.

I understand how the web gets paid for so I don't generally block ads, but finding out that #TEMU is likely using slave labour is the icing on a shitty cake - including stealing designs from independent artists - makes me want to make an exception.

Like smoking, drink-driving and plastic bags, France deems fast fashion a threat to societal health and is legislating against it.

This is one of my daughter's favorite toys and I got it for a couple of dollars on #Temu. I've been second guessing shopping there any more though because of something I read recently where the wares sold there might be produced via forced labor and Temu's response was not at all reassuring.

#Temu "Fin 2023, la Fédération européenne des industries du jouet (Toy Industries of Europe) a acheté 19 #jouets sur la plateforme Temu. Elle les a ensuite adressés à "un laboratoire de tests européen indépendant et accrédité pour leur évaluation selon les normes de sécurité des jouets". Et il en ressort que sur ces 19 jouets, "aucun n'était conforme à la réglementation de l'Union européenne et 18 présentaient un risque réel pour la #sécurité des #enfants"."

Solange Eltern, Kindergärten, Tagesmamis u.a. bei #amazon Plastikspielzeug aus #China bestellen oder noch besser bei #Temu bestellen, stellt sich für mich die Frage nicht wie diese Stoffe in die EU kommen.

Aber das ist nur ein Stoff über Microplastik redet schon keiner mehr.

The biggest trend impacting air freight right now is not the Houthi attacks in the Red Sea, but fast-fashion companies such as Shein and Temu. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2024/02/22/companies/fast-fashion-shein-temu-global-cargo/ #business #companies #shein #temu #fastfashion #shipping

I’d like to read more about how these companies afford to have products shipped by air that are below the costs of others. Are they just burning cash and will burn out soon enough, or is this a really big problem (environmentally and for cargo) long term? https://cosocial.ca/@timbray/111970279833364431
