There can be a lot of junk on Temu admittedly, but it’s kind of fun to find a few deals.

Found a pair of Leatherman Raptor shears ($99 USD) for $12

Also found a Benchmade Follow Up Fixed Blade ($120 USD) for $16

Bought a drone for $15. It’s not high quality, but it’s a drone, for $15. Fun to mess around and learn with.

Anyone else find some deals? Or, got another suggestion besides Temu?

    That’s awesome! And, yeah… the quality can be questionable, but then the price is cheap enough that you can kind of roll the dice and see if it’s good.

    A lot of stuff is actually just sold at a mark up on Amazon with a more mainstream brand logo on it, so there are some legit things.

      Correct, and many electric things are really dangerous, on amazon and on temu, because both does not require any electrical safety checks. Amazon went just downhill, with their ignorance on the Rating Manipulation, that leads to dangerous articles come on top.
