Cheap Sources

Post by HikerShawn »

How do you feel about trying plus size clothing from cheaper sources?

Cheap like Amazon (no name brands), TEMU, Shien, or even Wish if that's still a thing.

Clothing is expensive and it seems like plus size comes with additional costs these days.

But the cheap stuff isn't always what it claims to be, either.

So, what do you do?

I wouldn't get clothing from any cheap Chinese website. I've heard that Shien has had issues in the past, I'm not sure if they got any better. The following video goes over some of the issues people ran into when purchasing things from Shien, mainly clothing iirc.

During these times, you have to save all the money you can. I wouldn't waste money on name brand stuff right now.

Cheap sources can be a plus sometimes, however you have to go with caution becuse first off you dealing with you being a plus size girl. When your buying plus size clothes you must take into consideration that it must have quality material that can stand up to the test of being stretched worn and cleaned. Therefore cheap sources may not always be the way to go. Temu being my #1 source you can't trust if you will recieve your item, if it's the same color purchased and if it will come smaller with the right size printed and fabric not what you seen and order. It's not always good to go to a cheap source, but don't miss understand me you can find some cheaper sources of good quality plus size wear, you just have do your reviews.
