I used to buy from Alibaba and Ali-Express. Some items were quality and exactly what I wanted, but more often than not, they didn’t even resemble the picture or description and I couldn’t use them as intended. Now Temu is trying the same thing since everyone knows about Ali. It’s disappointing because I’d rather buy American. I just placed an order on eBay, and the default setting is always worldwide so you get cheap Chinese crap shown first. I change that to US only, and two of the senders were Chinese names here in the US. I’m going to have to investigate further on every damn item so that I don’t buy from the Chinese.
