Recently getting adverts from a company called TEMU.  Very professional looking.  However, the items are very inexpensive whilst looking lovely.   Of course loads of ‘happy’ comments.   Any people out there who have used this site?  Would appreciate any comments.  Thanks

    It appears to be an online market place, connecting buyers with sellers, in a similar way to  Etsy. I've not used it myself, although i have noticed adverts for it popping up on sites like Facebook recently.

    Sorry.  I haven’t used the forums for ages.  Can you tell me where my post should have been made please?  I did have difficulty in deciding which heading would be best.

    No problem, you hadn’t posted on any board but it’s no problem as it’s been moved to shop but don’t drop now x
