The Bottom Drawer Forums

Ordering from Temu is frustrating! Once you pick what you want to order and place it in your cart, normally, you would simply pay for the item(s) and the vendor sends it to you. But Temu wants you to keep placing more and more items in your cart for purchase. You can't bypass the requests to buy more and just pay for what you really wanted, so finally you just give up and close the app.

There are a lot of bikinis & thongs that I want, and they actually have sizes that fit me, but stupid Temu won't let you just pay for the 2 or 3 items that wanted in the first place, but wants you to keep adding items until you have well over $100 worth of stuff in your cart.

And no way to bypass these suggestions and just pay for the few items that you wanted in the first place!

I ordered 11 items January 16 and they were delivered to the US today. I didn't have issues bypassing all their pop ups but they were definitely annoying

I know site, prices are ridiculously low so I see that this process with pop-ups and insisting with additional purchases is part of business. I never used this platform but see catalogue, including male thongs
Same as flying with Ryanair: during flight there are lots of announcements for food and drinks, other items, lottery tickets...
What about sizes? I know USA EU and China are different and a chinese XL is a M elsewhere. Correct?

Temu is on my list of banned four letter words after my email inbox was flooded daily for several weeks with spam posts in many languages offering dubious money off vouchers. The mere mention of that name brings on a migraine, so now I'm off to lie down in a dark room until the pain subsides.
