This response is just dumb. If you have any electronic products or prescription drugs in your home you have let Chinese companies into your life. You clearly are clueless about the number of grocery items in your home that were made in China.

You are clueless.

What is your assumption here op?

I don't understand the difference between all the sites that are popping up now (Shein, Temu, Aliexpress) and how they are different from Amazon or Ebay. I have bought many items from Amazon that show a US location but the item actually shipped from China. Most of the stuff I've seen on Temu is also for sale on Ebay and/or Amazon and comes from China. Both Ebay and Amazon have vendors who hide that their items are shipped from China.

Why would anyone attack Temu and not also go after Ebay and Amazon?

Doesn't Amazon have the same sellers?

Yes Amazon has the same sellers.

But do they give the CCP access to all your data the way temu does?

I know this is real. But honestly, I don’t have data of interest to anyone. If I did, I wouldn’t put it on a computer hooked to the Internet.

Ah but I bet you will buy stuff from Amazon. no wait, you are going to tell me that Amazon is awful and you recently cancelled Prime.

People who say they don't buy from Temu or Shein but eagerly buy from Amazon as if that is somehow better. Where do you think the sellers on Amazon get the stuff from?
If you can purchase the same thing on Temu or Shein for less, than the Amazon seller bought there and is selling to you at a higher price.

Many of the brands just sell directly on all three platforms now.

Also many of those small business and independent online "boutiques" are simply selling the same stuff just with higher markup

Do you as a Democrat like Chinese slave labor better than American slave labor?

My son buys a lot of Temu stuff. He had a big battle to get refunded for one item but succeeded in the end. I have another friend who insists that they are always sending him stuff he didn't order or many multiples of something he ordered only one of, but he's an idiot and probably doing things wrong.

Only morons

Amazon sellers buy in bulk from Chinese companies like Temu and Shein and triple the prices.

I think I bought something from Temu or one of those type by mistake. It is a cat bed. I try to only buy from online stores connected to box stores like IKEA, Crate and Barrel. But this was called Fuzzy Pets or something and now I found out it’s coming from China. I’ll be more careful in the future.

Democrat

What do you buy that isn’t slave labor Chinese made?

This is the crux of the issue. What isn't made in China? Even our medicines come from China.

Everyone said the same thing about Amazon when they moved to selling more than books.

So I googled this and it is such a joke. The EU is going after Temu because of unsafe devices. Amazon has sold the same garbage and no one has gone after them.
