Not really sure how to explain it. I think it's basically an Amazon for factories/companies in China where all the branded stuff is made. They basically copy what they're making for the brands and put another name on it and charge a fraction of the price. Same stuff, different name.
I'm fairly sure the people charging £50 on Amazon are buying it from Temu.
Happy to be corrected on any or all of this though.
Before Christmas I bought a couple of headcovers off Temu, wasn't expecting much but very surprised by quality. Only paid approx £6 each but as good as any ones I've got previously with clubs

Yeah, I know people who have bought non-golf stuff from them and they were surprised by how good it was. There will obviously be some tat there but I really do think in some instances they just rename big branded stuff and sell it at a very reasonable price. Don't have a clue about how that stands up against copyrighting etc. though.

I’ve had some mixed results from them, (not Golf related) but a couple of times they’ve let me keep the item and given a full refund, other times it’s a refund and free returns via local drop off point.

I bought a golf travel bag off Temu for £25 ready for my trip to Portugal in Feb. It took a while to arrive but the quality seems good and it's got a decent hard shell at the top, it all folds into itself to save storage space too.

In my head, as long as it does the trip there and back it's a winner. If I get to Portugal and it's apparent it won't survive the trip back then I'll just buy a proper one out there....

Anyone bought grips off Temu?
They got some GP CP2 clones there at a very good price
From what I've read a lot of the putter grips are very good, presume it's down to not having the wear and tear associated with other clubs that are used for full swings and in a more robust manner. They seem to hold up well over time.
Not sure on wood and iron grips

Collected today.
I recommend all interested parties to look up ebay sold prices to assess what these irons are worth.

The classic Wilson red and white bag is in great condition and there is a bonus Wilson 1-iron/driving iron.

I have included a photo of the very gorgeous iron covers that were part of the deal as I know several of you will wish to express your envy in myriad ways.
