lol “exact same thing”? everyone i know who buys shit from any of those chinese amazons ends up with shitty knockoff garbage
eidt: LOL i can’t believe people are in here bootlicking chinese knockoff retailers. do what you want with your money bro. just don’t ever think you’re going to talk me into it too
First I don’t see an issue with a “store brand” if it does what you need.
Secondly - who is the name brand for say a power strip or a USB hub or USB C charger or cables? Or do you buy monster audio cables? SD card reader? Microfiber cloth? What about regular bath towels?
Somewhat more controversial - what about things that are inherently disposable like latex gloves or laundry detergent?
I went from all free and clear from Sam’s club which took up space and got me like 120 packets for 20 dollars to these detergent sheets which are much smaller and got 300 for 7 dollars. You use the same number of sheets as you would packets. The clothes come out the same.
But yes, try searching for something like an electric lighter for candles on both sites and tell me the “quality non knock off” on Amazon. 90 percent are on temu also for less.
AliExpress also sells high quality niche items if you know how to find them. I agree the site is drowning in crap, but at least coming from Canada, it often has things amazon.ca simply doesn’t sell… or anywhere else in the world at a price that isn’t prohibitive.
Just like most places on the Internet, using the site is a skill that needs to be developed.

LOL i’m not going to sit here and engage in a “amazon vs samsclub vs temu” debate.
you do you. i’m glad for you saving tons of money
So, exactly what you get from Amazon?
They didn’t even notice their shit isn’t made in Norway… and it’s also made in China LMAOROLFZ.
