Buy item X from Amazon, which is effectively a Temu product+ a 50% markup.

Or buy direct from Temu/AliExpress and save money?

It's not a hard choice.

I like watches. While I still pay retail for most of my watches, the bands are like 2$ on AliExpress and 15$ on Amazon. Phone cases are much much cheaper.

Certain phones aren't released domestically at all, so now I'm looking at a 100$ fee to import them. If I want to work on a project requiring a PCB that's now impossibly expensive.




Don’t you have more than those two options where you live?
