Does Temu? In Canada, I haven't received a thing from them through the post. It's all from small-time gig couriers. If they're not bringing it through the post, then it's getting brokered and applicable duties already paid by Temu.
But yes, the Etsy stuff is often sent piecemeal via Post.
Yes, well, sometimes. My wife used to shop there a lot. Some items 'came' from the US, which were little more than headshops and small warehouses, but shipping was much faster. Still, many items shipped directly from China to your mailbox.
What feels really gross is that they could ship a trinket from China to your door for less money than it would cost me to send it to someone in my own state.
