I finally followed a Temu link and nosed around yesterday. Tons of CT accessories for less than expected prices, and a few ship from "local" warehouses.

If I'm going to pay for a drop shipped part, may as well save some dough.

Consider the trade-offs when ordering from ultra-low-cost mass retailers like Temu.

When you purchase from Temu, you’re buying products that prioritize cost-cutting over quality, safety, and durability. These items are often produced with minimal oversight, meaning:
  • Questionable Materials – their products lack regulatory scrutiny, raising concerns about toxins, allergens, or hazardous substances
  • No Quality Assurance – Temu suppliers can skip testing, resulting in unreliable, or defective goods
  • Exploitation & Ethics – rock-bottom prices stem from poor labor conditions, low wages, and exploitative practices
  • Data Privacy Risks – Temu collects extensive user information that now belongs to the CCP, you have no data rights
  • False Economy – What seems like a deal often isn’t; cheap items break quickly, leading to repeated purchases and more waste

For me the unknown risks for a marginal price difference—often at the cost of your health, security, and long-term value, is almost never worth it

Most of it is junk. One of the vendors here that is gone now made a clip attachment for my phone. It broke. No longer responding to messages. One gets what they pay for.

I found a manufacturer here that makes all the stuff themselves here. None of this pre order wait for the boat to arrive crap. Do some research, it is worth the time.

There is no quality control from any vendor who drop ships from China. Ever notice how many different vendors carry the same product?

I was suspicious too, but Temu has US warehouses for some things and decent guarantees. Plus they accept PayPal so my info is safe.

Some products use the same product names as on Amazon. I am not ready to buy a big ticket item there, but made in China products are the same, regardless of where you buy them. There are plenty of vendors on this board that I trust (shout out to RPM Tesla) but do your homework. Some are just drop shippers, with longer lead times than Temu has.

RPM Tesla, T sportline, Evannex. Are all most in the same boat. They often tweak designs and send it overseas to be made with your dollars. Warehouses in the USA are just holding spots for the same junk of questionable materials.

Like who buys this junk. Carbon steel running boards. LOL. See you in two years with rust. https://tlyard.com/products/tesla-c...utm_medium=forum&utm_campaign=cyberturckowner

More China Junk

Thanks for the shout out Sefar!

Yes, many Chinese exporters are selling through Amazon’s FBA program, and many of the common Amazon items we sell at RPM TESLA are among them. We sell them also because of our one-stop shop concept for our local customers who visit our showroom.

However, we manufacture so many items outside of China because of the better quality and the counterfeiting that goes on between dozens of actual manufacturers in China.

Our Cybertruck OEM Core Steering wheels and so many other Carbon Fiber products are not imported from China. Please them out at https://www.rpmtesla.com/collections/cybertruck-carbon-fiber-products

Our 30 to 40% Off Presidents's Day sales end soon, and remember, at RPM there are no restocking fees, lifetime warranties, and live USA tech support for calling, texting, or live chat. Stop by and show our 4,000 square foot showroom if you are in Southern California.
