My cousin has been talking about how she was trying Temu out of curiosity. She placed an order for $20 worth of cheap stuff as a test and it arrived over the past couple of days, and she is satisfied with it. (They at least sent what she ordered and not a [toy school bus](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/received-unordered-merch-cant-find-any-evidence-ive-been-charged-im-sensing-a-scam/854208/12).) I’ve also started getting ads for Temu on Facebook, which brought to my attention that I have been blisfully ignorant of my lacking in the glow-in-the-dark kodama department, so I had her put a set of 10 in her next order. (Amazon charges around $8 for 5 of them.)
