        What, you didn’t like hearing about your favorite chemical infested, poisonous dropshipper anymore?

          It was clear my question wasn’t gonna get answered anyways. Unrealistic of me to expect chuds to simply answer an easy question

            Or, maybe, you could use that feedback to reflect on your thoughts about that platform. But I guess it’s easier to label us ‘chuds’ instead

              Or, they could answer my question when I specifically said not to bother lecturing me on why I shouldn’t use it because I do not care. So yes, you are chuds for not even being able to do the most basic of requests

    Most useful thing was actually a $2 key wallet. Stupid, but it was actually really hard to find the most basic keyring-with-wrap that wasn’t trying to be a card wallet or have fancy dangly bits or whatever. Just an oblong of fake leather, two studs and a split ring, so my keys don’t chew holes in my pocket.

    About 5 months ago I ordered this clock and it is still working fine now. It’s definitely cheaper than the listed price (it’s just cardboard and the clock motor) but it’s absolutely silent and it makes me smile every time I see it.

    I also bought a lot of cute clothes for my dog for under like $5 each outfit so that’s really nice.

    Maybe you care about the studies that show how their stuff is full of toxic chemicals that would not be allowed into the EU or USA if they were imported in a regular manner

    An electrothermic cooler for a laptop/tablet. Well, technically it was from aliexpress, but same thing.

    But it works surprisiningly well and for less then $15 it was way worth it. I got two more just in case it breaks.

      There is actually decent shit on Aliexpress if you know where to look. The same can’t be said for Temu. I got a trackball mouse from Ali for 20 quid, and it’s running great! There’s also a lot of cheap Chinese watch brands that sell on Aliexpress and some of them like Pagani Design and especially San Martin, provide incredible quality for the price.

      Old post was smth like “what do you think about Temu?”. Author was also angry about downvotes from privacy neckbeards or like.

    My parents are obsessed with that store. I don’t understand it. They keep telling me about how cheap everything is and buying me random junk. Everything has been exactly that. Junk.
