What is temu? Cheap China shit made from stolen IP?
Temu is a cheaper version of AliExpress that has a focus on cheap, fast fashion. They're well known for squeezing suppliers to the point of death to get cheap products, and their products aren't even worth what you pay for them. They're kind of like Shein, except they do have more than just clothing.
They rose to prominence a few years ago with a dot-com like rise, and they're falling just as fast.
Pretty much. The same factories that churn out stuff for brands here sell excess capacity on the side without the markings on temu. Or sometimes even with. Quality is all over the place. Some of it is exactly what you'd get buying a branded item, sometimes it's a cheap fake.
