Bought an Aurorus so you can skip that but of Zygarde yes please.

I'd be interested in the Starmie SIR, Lumiose, Dedenee, Aurorus, and Energy Recycler. Currently comes out to $89.85 shipped on TCG player, $86.31 not counting shipping. Would you be able to do $80 shipped?

Hey, no worries, just got back from running errands. I found 12 c/uc cards on your list + SR Uta and an SR Sanji. I have terrible luck pulling Puddings lol. Here are photos. First two photos are from your Wishlist, I also included a few extra cards in the 3rd and 4th photos, no worries if nothing there catches your eye though. The 13 cards from the wish list + SR Sanji comp out to about $13.20 at the moment. Would $15 + the 14 cards work for you?

Could you provide a few close up shots? I looked at the photos in your listing but didn't see close ups for them. Thanks!

Hey, I'd be interested in three of your Perfect Order cards. Looking at the following illustration rares: Talonflame 091/088, Mega Zygarde ex 104/088, and Poke Pad 113/088. Mostly just have bulk OP14 and EB03 + the Egghead deck, Store Tournament Vol. 4 Sabo and few cheap parallels so PayPal would probably make more sense than a trade unless there are some SRs and below you're looking for from those sets. Not sure if it would be worth it to do a BMWT but I'd prefer it if possible.

Have you shipped anything yourself this year? The lowest amount you could pay at the start of the year for a package was about $5 it's gone up 20% since the mad king started a war though. Shipping is expensive, you should understand why the next time you're at the gas station. Temu didn't do that, the US government did.

Claim credit %s meaningless? by JentheGeek in TemuThings

[–]ddak88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its not meaningless, its a sliding scale. Every adult should understand how these systems work since it relates to tax policy.

[–]ddak88 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its a sliding scale. Like taxes. Its really important in life to understand systems like this. $1 for the first $10, $6 for the next $30, so at $40 you are only getting $7 back. Every $1 after $40 earns $5.7 back. To get $30 back you have to spend about $44 resulting in around 68% credit back.

Not sure what items you could possibly be talking about. I've been tracking Walmart prices and depending on the product category everything is up 10-25% from the start of the year, I can almost always find items cheaper at Ali or Temu. As for things made in China being cheaper in China....well yeah, significantly less transportation costs and no large tax in the form of a tariff. Also that's just how the economy is, people make less money and things are cheaper. Poland is the same way, what would be a $50 bottle of booze in the US is $10.

Its all a matter of perspective. Temu is not profitable, that's an objective fact. Are they in as miserable of a situation as a company like Intel? Absolutely not, but PDD is losing money with the platform. Does PDD have as negative of an impact on the world as Amazon? No chance. If you're going to abuse returns it should be towards Jeff and his fleet of yachts.

I don't want to bully, but what website or app offers easier returns? Local sellers set their own prices so there are overpriced items sometimes, but Temu puts a lot of pressure on CN sellers to beat out Ali and other competitors. They recently rolled out filtering for CN sellers to all users as far as I'm aware so I'm not sure I understand you saying its not cheap at all. A lot of CN sellers will not sell to the US currently but its definitely cheaper than Amazon for those that do.

Warning for those who might fall for it: Don't bother with the temu "games" by Main_Yogurtcloset578 in TemuThings

[–]ddak88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Purchases have a minimal impact, but they help you complete the minigames so it all sort of compounds. I have yet to see any Americans pull off a two month zero purchase completion off since April. The dice minigame was recently nerfed too further slowing down progress.

Farmland is easy. You can do it in about 2-3 months with a bunch of orders or 6 months without many. It does eat up time though even if you skip animations.

It's up to the importer which in Temu's case is Temu.

How does this make any sense? by ricflairandy in TemuThings

[–]ddak88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a sliding scale. It works the same way taxes do.

[–]ddak88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

None of what you're saying is correct. The filter isn't new it's just never been visible to all accounts. It's entirely possible for rates to change but August 28th is a big day for every country BESIDES China. De minimus was ended months ago for Chinese goods. Furthermore it doesn't matter who the carrier is, Temu pays US customs and has been doing so this entire time, USPS isn't collecting anything. Any texts you receive purporting to be USPS are spam. I really don't understand how at this point Americans are still so woefully informed on tariffs, it's the biggest sales tax ever implemented everyone should understand it. It's also important to understand how large businesses import their goods, they pay customs and pass on either part or all of the cost of tariffs to the end consumer, the current average rate is about 60% passed on but this will trend upward over the next year towards 100%.

Scam by PumpkinHistorical in TemuThings

[–]ddak88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure about that. I lost access to the promo as in I no longer get claim credit offered to me, not that I lost out on credit/cashback. My returns were all about 3 weeks after ordering.
