PS5 From Temu Just PS2 and PS3 Glued Together

THE INTERNET — Controversial shopping website Temu is trending today as many customers posted online about discovering items they purchased were not quite as advertised, drawing comparisons to Wish.com.

One man reportedly placed an order for a Playstation 5, listed for only $150. When it arrived at his house however, he found that it wasn’t quite what he expected.

“Scamming me is one thing, I am used to that,” complained Fred Oolish, a father of two who initially thought he’d found a bargain. “But packing it in a sealed PS5 box so that I presented it to my kid before I realized what it really was was the evil part.”

Oolish is not alone. Others reported similar issues and customer service seemed to be no help. When the Oolish family reached out to Temu’s customer service for comment, they were not helped.

“Thank you for contacting Temu Customer service!” a message shown to Hard Drive read. “We’re happy to offer you a 50% coupon on all of our fabulous gaming products. Such as the brand new Xbox Series Q, the Nintendo Switch 5, or the Sega Dreamcast! Spin the wheel of danger to find out your gift!”

Unfortunately Oolish hasn’t heard anything else from them yet and is worried about other recent purchases he’s made from the site.

“I’m so frustrated and stressed out about this whole thing!” Oolish said. “I ordered my wife a bracelet that’s supposed to contain a piece of the Hope Diamond. Now I’m worried that won’t even be real! I paid $400 for it!”

At press time Temu refused to comment  — we think — as we’re still sorting through the 300 emails they’ve sent us today to find the one pertinent to the story.
