I just bought a thing from wish. Cat laser pointer.
Living in Sweden it's one of the biggest Chinese shopping sites.
We have to pay a flat rate 7 quid handling fee +tax on everything so all the usual Chinese junk sites become ridiculously priced.
Wish made a deal with the Swedish Postal service which allows them to pay tax and shipping at s reduced rate, so it's by far the cheapest option, but it is still garbage.
The junk on wish is the same junk as eBay AliExpress and everywhere else.
It's fine it offers a little layer of middleman protection, I've never had an issue with them and have had full refunds just by complaining.
It's no worse than eBay or Ali.ex. in my experience. Pure garbage though
