However, when you realize that it's not 10-20% more, you are paying 5-10x the price for the product in many causes, it makes it hard to justify supporting the shops.

Here is the price in NZ: https://imgur.com/a/6i6bOLo
and here's the price for the EXCACT SAME ITEM on Temu: https://imgur.com/a/FmJBAeZ

The stupid thing is the one from Temu arrives just as quickly (with free shipping) compared to the one shipped from NZ where you end up paying $15-20 extra for the shipping.

“Exact same item” except made in a different country with a different brand name ��
