      I really have grown to like this channel. I've used it so many times to know what tools to get. That being said you have to make it while you can my friend. I think as long as you talk to your audience truthfully about why you are showing something that's enough. I would appreciate if you would say weather or not there are better options available if your going to cash in on the advertising boom from china.

    In my opinion if you took the money and were honest about it I wouldn’t hold it against you at all. The world is tough, 1k would pull me out of a hole I’m in right now. Your integrity is so obvious that you taking money from some scummy companies wouldn’t come across as bad to me at all

      @@hachi-rokuperformancegroup3987 I’ve heard that explicitly requiring positive reviews is much less common nowadays. They’re more likely to be subtle and try to make you happy and send you more stuff or things like that. Demanding positive reviews generates an immediate scandal.

    I had Temu and other people from WISH ask me to make positive videos. I wasn’t offered $1,000, dam that’s temping, the most I was offered was $250.
    Had a company send me a pallet full of knock off dewalt cordless tools. My videos got ripped off RUclips for violating the agreement I signed; oops😂.
    I took every tool to my buddies ranch and we burned every power tool up within an hour.

    I damaged a Temu tool the first time it was used purchased by someone else. I tried to replace it was displeased to find out I had to download the app but I didn't want to not replace it so I downloaded the app and immediately regretted and deleted it. I purchased them a nicer quality replacement.

    I think they're more of a distributor since there's a lot of Chinese ripoffs that they sell of those products' more legitimate counterparts besides tools. Although I don't think I'd personally call Temu that either because they're breaking almost as many laws as Microsoft. On a side note, their trashy ads are literally *EVERYWHERE!* As in, you can't so much as play a game on your phone/tablet without getting a Temu ad at least three times

    @gran_turismo_fan 5 месяцев назад +3

    I completely understand where you're coming from CP, a lot of people (as in not literally everybody) anymore don't really look at the real truth or evaluate what's truly important. They think what they like to believe or they simply don't do their due diligence before drawing a conclusion on something. I solely believe that you should continue to do more RUclips videos despite the negativity you receive in a manner where you don't let that bother you on what people say about you negatively. You clearly do offer an honest outlook on whether something is good or not and you don't take money from corporations as a means to deceive people of what they're getting out of said product and the such.
    It's truly rare to see knowledgeable people like you that have actual skills and actually have done things in the automotive industry that not a lot of people possess now and days. You rarely ever see that on the internet unless if you really look for a hidden gem of useful information without the B.S.

    Honestly I'm not surprised at all that Temu took America by storm. Some people want quality stuff and of those, only X% can afford or would want to actually spend the money to get it.
    By and large though, a lot of folks value price. And if say a good t-shirt costs $15, but they can get a shirt for $2 on there and in their mind it's at least as decent as a $5 shirt, it may not be as good as the $15 shirt but there is value seen there since it performed better than $2 in their view.
    Just look at the rise of Walmart and the rise of Amazon. Undercutting the competition on price where possible, and adding convenience. Temu takes it a step further by having quicker shipping than similar platforms so you can get that shopping dopamine hit sooner, and combines it with absolute rock bottom prices.

    @guyconnell2250 5 месяцев назад

    I experimented with the solder seal connectors (not Temu). Great idea. Except, in my experience, they don't work. The solder goes around the wires unless you get it hot enough, in which case the plastic melts. No adhesive in the plastic. It's, well just plastic. I did several experimental connections and cut through them (what can I say? I get bored in North Dakota in the winter). All the same. Would not trust them longterm.
    Also, I dare you to send one of the ratchet wrenches to Client Graphics for "testing" LOL.

  • @baja-automotive

    These Chinese apps like Temu and WISH make me so angry. I personally people who have had their products pictures stolen from their website and copied on these apps.
    One girl makes custom costumes for cosplay, they start at $300. She lost her shit when she found her pics on WISH and the product was going for $50.
    You can file complaints but because they’re over seas our system can’t stop it. The only way to shut it down is to have the government kick them off the App stores

    " shop like a Billionaire " ?
    I don't think most billionaires are constantly ordering an excessive glutinous amount of cheap Chinese bottom of the barrel garbage that you should be ashamed to own.
    Billionaires buy excessive glutinous amounts of high end watches and luxury cars, most of them tend to buy prestigious luxurious items of exceptional quality.
    That slogan absolutely makes me laugh.
    I also laugh and at the same time feel a bit disgusted when people can with a straight face pretend and as long as something looks the same and is cheaper you should happily buy it.
    I would much rather buy hand tools at Harbor freight than from Scum-U, and I don't even buy hand tools from HF.
