Ordered a whole bunch of stuff, paid the tax yesterday and then got an sms later saying huge delays because of a surge in orders. Delivery will be delayed by a week at this stage.. Seems like lot of people are winning free prizes...

How do you do customs payments through pay@ using my capitec bank account also what is the reference number that you use when doing payment
 
how are these people making money, apparently my order is being flown down, waiting for the flight departure

I assumed it would come down with a ship.

It like having a 3d printer at home and figure out what to do with it. I think their problem lies there, then figure out what to do, if you good at coding life becomes easier. Then they do stuff as a hobby out of 1 billion people how many are selling? Competition could be tough out there. I could be wrong though.
 
Hi, I am having the same issue with capitec payment via pay@ they need a reference number or account number, can you kindly advise where I can find these numbers, thanks

I just use the capitec app scan and pay option no need for other stuff.

so as I thought it doesn't make sense, Temu will fail eventually

If local retailer put pressure on gov then maybe. Otherwise they succeed at least in South Africa.

I have been pleasantly surprised by Temu.

I have bought so many things from takealot 3rd party sellers that was pure crap as those sellers import from AliExpress. Temu on other hand has a very limited range and I assume that makes sourcing times shorter and they quickly stop selling bad rated products thus avoiding the Wish curse .
Partnering with Buffalo express is a game changer. Currently only Temu and SHein partner with them and I hope other do too in future.

Temu quality is better than both takealot 3rd party sellers and paki stores so I would much rather support them. Let 3rd party sellers and paki stores cry until the cows come home. I don't care.

Have you ordered from Temu? Let us know what your experience was like.

Temu is an online marketplace for items directly from China, similar to Wish and Shein - which recently launched in South Africa.

I don't even make use of SA online services. Why would I even think about ones based overseas in China?
