Temu, Shein Are Doomed! Type 86 Parcels Severely Hit, Thousands of Tons Detained at Customs 

I was just about to say that.

Also less energy for rubbish incinerators.

100 percent

Unfortunately, customs seizures tend to create thrash in landfills too....

​@@splitprissm9339 I believe this was in response to the video title, as Temu being doomed would mean less trash in landfills. Right now all the stuff stuck in customs is probably going to end up going there, though.

China falsifies its GDP and other metrics.

I agree

they shameless

They should pay as much for shipping as other advanced countries, they themselves boast about landing on the moon and "advanced" EVs all the time

Who keeps voting for them to remain a developing Country ? Hopefully Trump can put a stop to that when he wins in November.

Temu Shein et all are costing you your tax dollars to subsidize the shipping cost with the UPU.

Posted at 10:44 AM, Oct 17, 2018 The Trump administration is moving to raise postage rates for foreign companies that ship packages to the United States. Some countries, including China, currently benefit from subsidized postal rates set by the Universal Postal Union, a United Nations agency. On Wednesday, US officials will initiate a withdrawal process from the UPU, which was established in 1874 and has 192 member countries. The process to withdraw will take at least a year, and the administration intends to negotiate new rates with the group during that time. Under the current rules, the UPU sets lower rates for developing countries. It makes it possible to mail a package from Beijing to New York for less than it costs to send it from San Francisco to New York, for example. China, Singapore, Germany, France and some other countries benefit from the policy, said a senior White House official on a call with reporters. The official called the current system a “major economic distortion” that affects trade flows and puts American businesses at a competitive disadvantage. The move comes as the Trump administration is pressuring China to change its trade practices, which US officials and businesses claim are unfair. President Donald Trump has imposed tariffs on $250 billion of Chinese goods this year. A White House official on the call said that while China accounts for a large portion of mail coming in at a subsidized rate, addressing the postage issue is not solely about putting more pressure on China. “This is a situation where the strategy is simply to stop the harm being done through a multilateral organization … not just China,” the official said. The damage is being felt by both American businesses and the US Postal Service, which has been losing money for years. Trump has frequently blamed Amazonfor taking advantage of USPS and contributing to its revenue shortfall. He claims the USPS doesn’t charge the retail giant enough to cover what it actually costs to deliver its packages. But US businesses have complained about the subsidized international shipping rates, and raising them could benefit retailers - including Amazon. Earlier this year, the National Association of Manufacturers sent a letter to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin urging him to end the “almost unbelievable practice whereby our own postal service subsidizes Chinese imports.” While the Trump administration intends to negotiate with UPU members, it will also move forward with a domestic process that would allow the USPS to set its own rates on international packages. The new rates would at least reimburse the United States for the cost of the service. The United States already has its own rates in place for packages that weigh more than 4.4 pounds. The new rates would apply to lighter packages and would not take effect for at least six months.

We don't want that toxic crap either thanks 🇬🇧

USA to UK 100grams of spicy nuts cost £20 shipping Europe to UK cost £10 for 50grams of spices shipped. China to UK 10kg of toxic plastic....... Free delivery ????

The US, EU and Earth all benefit from less CN garbage

No need to buy landfill for 99 cents. If we need cheap goods we have salvation army. God bless USA.

I bought a shirt from TEMU for $15. Now i have an expensive wash cloth😂. First and last time I buy anything from TEMU! TEMU.. FU🖕

@@JohnJaneson costco is there

Where do you think that most of your household products come from?

It's a crackdown on fentanol trafficking.

Yes I’m still waiting on my package

Consumption of junk is the driver of the whole globalist pyramid scheme welfare economy. With China getting the boot people will have to find something more meaningful to fill their lives with. Maybe family and God?

Great Firewall is 20 years old for "security", but when more checks due to CN drugs shipped as toys Wumaos bring up all kinds of excuses ROFL

China used to ship Fentanyl analogues directly until it was finally scheduled by authorities. China then sent Fentanyl to Mexico and sells massive amounts of precursor chemicals to cartels that end up cooking up street fentanyl in their labs. With the U.S. border being completely open for the last 3 1/2 years thanks to Biden, the cartels flooded American streets with this poison. China knew that eroding society from the inside can be done successfully. That’s why they bought TikTok and their algorithm pushes degenerate content to kids.

uh yeah, because your war on drugs blockades always worked so well in the past ... seems you people still havent noticed that cutting off one supplier/supply route just means another will jump in to fill the demand, that much is certain given the long history with drugs. Unless you end all international trade you wont win by shutting down trade with specific nations. Ever thought about focusing on the actual cause of your drug problem instead of distracting yourself with a symptom you never got under control for the past decades? How about not pushing your own people into so much misery that they turn to drugs to begin with?! Learn from the real first world and try humane work hours, wages, healthcare, education, social security, incarcaration rates and all the other actually helpful tools to prevent drug misuse ... just once try something which actually works instead of your silly neverending war on drugs. ... ofc thats optional, you certainly can refuse to learn and continue to waste away as a society while blaming foreigners for your own problems.

Too funny! Fentanyl is approved by the FDA. If the US users/ consumers keep ordering then the crooks (regardless of nationality) will sell them.

Fentanyl, cocain and other illegal drugs are also transferred thru Mexico. Mexico has to do it's share in stopping this. This is also in their future interest.

They boast about landing on the moon + "advanced manufacturing" + 2nd largest economy while paying fees like a developing country.

Sad and China ruined good Idea was met with like you said, for poor countries like the Philippines and other countries to send them goods to poor people and of course, China makes it into a massive corporate loophole.

Or the USA or Germany etc.

It’s free shipping

This has always pissed me off For so long. Saying China is a “developing country”! But so happens to have, and make, nukes, second largest military, submarines, largest warships fleet, 5 GEN aircraft, ballistic missiles, a space force. EV cars, solar, Belt and Road Con. Corrupting the true and real third world countries into submission and bankruptcy. Then stealing all their resources and ports. And Bullies all their neighbors, by force and intimidation. But, But, But…. “China is POOR”! 🙃 GTFOOH with their BS! Can’t believe it’s taken this long, to wake the hell up. But it’s finally happening, and I’ve got my 🍿ready for all the fun seeing their HUGE downfall. Can’t wait…. 🤣

and invading other countries 😂

Of course they will rip you off

You seriously believe the US is paying to transport those packages from China to the US? WTF does it cost $102 to ship a small item from the US to Asia? The developing country status cheap rate only affects things sent by regular post. And it's not even that. Countries are grouped into 4 classes by per capita GDP, not developing country status. China is class 3 along with Mexico and much of South America, parts of Asia, etc. The US is class 1. The problem is entirely overblown because you remembered President Trump complaining about it, but completely forgot him declaring victory in 2019 after he successfully pressured the UPU to allow the US to increase terminal dues faster.

@@cashkitty3472 AMERICAN TAX PAYERS are pay the postal fees

It’s all junk! 😡

You are 💯 correct. China has always been a criminal state, disguised, masquerading and operating as a country. Their criminal con empire, will always look for loopholes, and illegal means. But, thankfully governments around the world have woken up. So. Tik Tok, Tik Tok mother effers!!! 🤣

Well said

So don’t buy it. Glad you are happy with less choice and higher prices lol

@@stant2687 so you hate quality.

@@stant2687 Yeah right

​@@gondorianslayer4250 temu goods are not cheap, they are just junk. 30 cents cardboard being sold for 90 cents, that's not cheap.

Temu 🎶 Flee the country like a billionaire

Yup the same with me.😂

Very invasive ad campaign in both US and UK markets.

That's because You Tube is run by a A.I.!. What you are seeing is the future!, Goggle programed the A.I. this is why everyone that uses You Tube is seeing all of these Stupid ad's always cutting into the videos at random times!. You Tube was not like this back in 2019!, there were no ad's at all!. And then Goggle bought You Tube and put a A I. running it!, and look what happened!.

yeah like the future of manufacturing in all western countries and the lack of future prospects for all the young people in those countries

In a recent and ongoing series of safety inspections conducted by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, numerous products from major e-commerce platforms including Shein and AliExpress were found to contain hazardous levels of toxic substances. These findings raise significant concerns about the environmental and consumer health impacts of these widely used platforms, particularly as they continue to expand their market presence in the United States and globally. Alarming Findings from Seoul’s Safety Tests Seoul authorities have been conducting weekly inspections of products sold by platforms including Shein, Temu, and AliExpress. The latest findings from these inspections are alarming. Among Shein products tested, including children’s shoes, leather bags, and belts, several contained extremely high levels of phthalates, a chemical used to soften plastics. One pair of shoes contained phthalate levels 428 times above the permitted limit, while three bags had levels 153 times higher than acceptable. A children’s watch contained lead levels 278 times above the permitted limit, with chromium and nickel levels also exceeding safe limits. A children’s necklace from AliExpress showed lead levels 1.2 times above the standard. Contamination is widespread. Seoul authorities have inspected 93 products overall, finding nearly half to contain toxic substances. These items include children’s watches, coloring pencils, and numerous other accessories.

Fentanyl

But you can buy shoddy low priced crap so you feel like you can "Shop Like a Millionaire" 🙄😒

@@amandab8433 Even millionaires don't buy garbage 😂

Shop like a billionaire, temu temu!

They tried hyping up the ugliest sounding keyboard that looked like pure plastic in their advertising which made me wonder if that was the best they would show

Yeah but the incesant ads on every online platform means I have and will never give Temu a dime

That would mean most electronics can't be made anymore. Electronics are in most products nowadays, which you couldn't get anymore in the US Do you want that?

@@Violet-ui So it's better to trade with your enemies so you can have electronic gadgets?

Right. As if the production can be only from China. Go back three spaces.

@@soco13466 AN miss a turn LOL

Many are their toys and products have been found dangerous by EU, Japan, and S. Korea testing like full of lead, etc. It is not just crap, but dangerous crap.

The IPU rejected the proposal.

During his term, the dems blocked all sorts of common sense operations, even those that previously went on during obama, because they were trying to make his term into a failure no matter how many people suffered. So it wouldn't be any surprise his efforts to stop Temu patent/copyright problems and its abuse of postal rates since USA taxpayers are among those that subsidize Temu's shipping costs.

hmm.. i've been using temu off and on and have not experienced completely different items and fake cc charges... they do spam/text me errday

And fentanyl.

US consumers regularly pay tariff prices on products from American companies importing their goods from China, except that many companies have tariff waivers from US Gov't. American consumers are bent over and used like a cheap prostitute by tariffs and US companies with tariff waivers charging tariff prices.

A stupid policy that has cost us dearly. Enough is enough.

Yes Do developing have excessive military infrastructures like China?

Most likely that is next, followed by other Chinese companies.

Have you told Customs about this? How do you know about it?
