I always hear stories about the dangers of buying from WIsh.com, Aliexpress, and recently Temu. I’ve jokingly called them “buyer beware” sites even. Yet people still use them, and there’s just as many positive results as negative. But I’ve also heard about unexplained card charges, data hacks, pyramid-scheme-like behavior, etc. So which of those sites, or other similar sites, is the “safest” if I DID wanna shop there?

    AliExpress has been solid for the past few years. There’s indeed some sketchy sh*t there but it’s usually pretty obvious what to avoid. And, of course, expect to get what you pay for… a $5 tshirt isn’t going to be the same quality as a $25 one from Amazon.
