Before making this post, I saw that searching “Temu” or “DK75” on this forum both return zero results, so I figured that it may be worthwhile to make the comment that I just ordered a DK75 keyboard from Temu.
What is a “Shaftless Body”?
It had a nominal list price of $50.99, but Temu seems to heavily play the everything is “on sale” with “huge discounts” sort of marketing BS game, so I don’t think anyone is really expected to ever pay the regular list price for anything. I mean the website and app is utterly ridiculous with the sorts of games it plays to make you think you’re getting an amazing deal. They completely bombard you with stuff like spinners for coupons/discounts and even silly little mini-games where you can collect credits or coupons. Then, it shows you screens of random items where if you act quickly within minutes to order several different things (that you weren’t even initially interested in), you can earn even more coupons and discounts. All of this crap is so over the top, in a way that makes it feel really sketchy and even like a scam.
So, overall, the shopping experience at Temu felt somewhat unpleasant to me, and I’ve been resisting making an order from them, despite having seen Temu links in various searches. However, some family and friends have recommended Temu before, and they’ve found some absurdly good deals on various non-keyboard things.
In the end, after playing some silly games to get some discounts and jumping through hoops to decline adding other unrelated items (like artificial bonsai plants, assorted clothing, random toys, etc., which could have earned even more coupons), I wound up paying a very low price.
This is one of the cheapest keyboard related orders that I’ve ever placed, and I think this is a bit of a funny contrast to the one in the previous post.
Looking forward to trying this out as an extreme budget build. I’ll make another post when it turns up. Apparently, it has a PC plate, and I wonder if it has a protective film applied. Maybe I’ll try the unpeeled PC mod.
