Is Temu legit? I figure it's similar to Wish and all those other online shop but I see ads for it everywhere.

If you don't mind cheap plastic made by Uighur slaves. Your choice.

Well, it is legit. Pretty dodgy, but you do for the most part get what you order. I ordered from them once and a few things I noticed: they have a minimum $30 order which they don't tell you about until you're about to pay, they often go on about coupons which are way too good to be true (and they are). One I remember was they offered me a $100 coupon for spending at least 40 bucks, but what they don't tell you is that it's like a $10 coupon on your next 10 shops and you have to spend at least 60 bucks and you have 2 days to use them all

Yeah it's legit. It's like a $2 shop but online.

I've found it similar to alliexpress, but apparently much much worse.

It hasn't suggested a meth pipe for me yet, unlike Wish.
