I see their commercials for various items when watching YouTube vids & I wish I had a few of those items I've seen, but don't know how reputable they are. I'm wary of putting my debit card & personal info in there.
It seems to be like Alibaba that shold cheap stuff.

Anyone try them?
All I know or read is that it is China's version of Amazon.
I see, OK. Thanks for replying. Maybe if I had a debit gift card, I'd try, but NOT if it's connected to my own bank account just in case.
I posted on another thread about TEMU. I have a debit gift card and tried to use it to purchase. It would not go through. I recall a while ago that the debit gift card can only be used on US sites. Previously I also tried to use it and didn't realize the company was in Canada. That did not go through either. When I investigated, that's how I learned it could only be used for US.
There might be other gift cards that can be used in these instances, but the ones I have cannot.
I too do not care to use a credit card that I use regularly. I;m sure the TEMU is legit, but I just don't feel confident with all the security breaches lately.

I would agree about debit cards. The ones I am referring to though I received as a promotion or award.
They are not at all reloadable or tied to any of my information.Thats why I prefer to use them when I am not sure of a website legitimacy.
The purchase I was going to make was for under $10 and the total on my debit card is $125. I was willing to take the risk. However, as I said, these debit cards can only be used for domestic (USA) .

I ordered a few things last week, and used PayPal (which, if I understand correctly, is safer than credit card). My items haven't arrived yet, but I'll report back when they do.
OK, here is my update. I ordered 6 pairs of earrings, for a total cost of $7-something. I did it out of curiosity as much as anything. I couldn't imagine that any company could send me 6 pairs of earrings, including shipping, for that price. So it was a fun and silly $7 experiment.
I must say, the earrings were better than I expected (because I was expecting to get either nothing at all, or complete crap.) BUT...anyone who normally buys mid-range or up jewelry would not like these. They are OK, but are clearly not great. I think a person on a very limited budget, who is limited to shopping at dollar stores and Walmart, would love them. They are wearable and much nicer than I expected for a buck or so each! But if you are accustomed to better quality costume jewelry, or "real" jewelry, you would not want to go out in something this cheap looking.
I hope that makes sense and didn't sound snooty.
Oh, I should also mention a problem with a couple of those pairs. I've had this same problem with cheap ($10-ish) earrings from Amazon too. The posts are just too thick. They are difficult to put in, and then the pressure actually hurts.
