šJokerChinese immigrants in the U.S. are running Temu shipping centers out of their homes
carl_dungeonWho is buying that shit? Iāve never once heard someone say ālook at this great thing I got on temu!ā. Iāve literally only seen wish-fail stuff. It seems like a company that extracts pennies from putting shit directly into the landfill.
Tons of people. My wife bought a $7 digital camera off of there for one of our kids and 2 years later, both of our kids still love playing with it and it works perfectly fine. Weāve bought a couple of other toys off of there without issue. But yeah, the majority of the products on there are typically garbage.
Only thing I worry about with toys is if the plastic they use is non-toxic. Most cheap toys sold online arenāt tested for plastic toxicity.
True enough, but toxic toys arenāt super common in the US. It certainly happens, but they eventually get detected and recalled. That being said, with Trumpās plans for gutting regulatory bodies even further, Iāll be much less inclined to order cheap toys from online.
Ive never heard of anything from temu or similar being recalled
āDangerā to children: Amazon among online marketplaces selling unsafe toys in Europe
Some toymakers are āfloodingā Europe with dangerous toys via online marketplaces, including magnets capable of puncturing a childās intestines if swallowed and products containing toxic chemicals, according to an industry body.
Nothing in the article you linked states any sort recalls just companies stating that they take safety seriously. We all know that if a big corporation is saying something its definitely fact and theyd never lie.
