I won one of their spin the wheel things and got 3 items of my choosing for $0.01 a piece. The list of items to choose from includes like, $100+ LiFePO batteries, inverters, shit like that, all for $0.01.
I know that it’s a myth that Chinese products are shit quality: $0.03 (plus shipping I’m assuming) for potentially a couple hundred dollars’ worth of stuff just isn’t believable to me.
I’ve only ever bought electronic stuff and other tinkerer things from sites like temu, AliExpress etc, and it’s all been the same as stuff you can buy at the shops just significantly cheaper.
I think the problem is when people buy stuff that they expect to be high quality when they’re paying like $5-20 for something.
