    For anyone still wondering if anything on Temu is good—so many people in my life still are—its best explained as an online dollar store.

    A dog bowl? Yes. A basic backpack? Sure. A jigsaw puzzle? Probably… Shoes? No. A Bluetooth anything? Hell no. An outdoor gas heater? Fuck no.

    So, yeah. Basically whatever you’d go to a dollar store for because you think it’s something basic, like a door mat, but everywhere else you go they’re like $50 for some reason.

      I honestly have no idea whether or not it’s good because the only time I ever clicked on one of their links, just to get more info, that their website gave me so many popups that I said fuck it and looked elsewhere.

      It’s probably grabbed from eBay or etsy. These puzzle boxes do one gimmick from the film. Some of the really expensive ones do like 3 gimmicks. Sliding, turning, a piece rotates and click in, something.

    The first flick was so well done! The original story by Clive Barker (Hellbound Heart) is good as well.

    Wonder whatever happened to Barker? Seems like it’s been a while…

    Wow… nothing for 10 years…

    Do you want Temu Pinhead to show up? *We have such deeply discounted sights to show you. *

      Well, since it’s Temu Pinhead, he’ll have absolutely no sights to show us and will probably randomly just drop dead(er)

      Is that Pinhead from Dead by Daylight? That’s a pretty good design.

      Edit: Wait, its not. What Hellraiser is this Pinhead from?

    If you want actually good deals don’t use Temu or Alibaba, use those amazon return/overstock bidding sites. Just the other day I got a 2-arm VESA mount for $3 and it works great. Thing id like 30 pounds of steel and normally costs a hundo brand new. Only problem was some missing screws that weren’t even necessary to the functioning of it.
