So I decided to this whole thing a try as well, my sister has been using Shein for a while and has been quite happy, so I thought I'd dip a toe. Ordered about R400 worth of various items yesterday afternoon and I see that there are already updates. Order has been packed, shipment was waited for and is currently sitting on "order shipped" I see above that the next step should be paying the taxes - how does this part normally happen?
 
Ordered last night. Hopefully the customs charges aren't too bad.

For my 4th order I didn't receive any sms or email regarding the VAT + customs like the previous 3 orders. I just saw that it was payable when I logged into my Temu account.
 
has anyone else noticed this ,since ive had the Temu app every product or item i google is from Temu ,now removed the app .
 
Second order of random BS was placed on 22 Feb and Delivered on 5 Mar. Not too bad.
I am still waiting for other random BS I ordered on AliExp in Jan to be delivered.

That's Google personalised search returns , nothing to do with Temu
 
Which items are worth getting from Temu ? Not sure if their reviews are trustworthy.
