Chances of these being genuine?

You've got more chance of the Devil winning a fight with Chuck Norris.

Their Pillows are genuine but there's one draw back!

I buy a lot of kit from Temu and I never have a problem. The kit always arrives in reasonable time. If the customer does not read what they are buying, including the sizes and dimensions. Its hardly the sellers fault. Some underhandedness and deception by the seller is to be expected and is to be looked out for. 😁

Its all part of the Temu buying experience.

TBH really dont know but would be surprised if they are made in Germany originals? Remember a few years ago buying 20 Shimano chains online and though they where a great price, looked great but after a few weeks where totally worn and actually almost had an accident when the chain that i thought as almost new slipped over the cassette on a sprint, ended up binning the lot.
Having said that know a club cyclist that uses KMC chains bought for about £5 and he seems to get thousands of miles out of them? Conclusion may be real or copys, If copys might be great or might just be very cheap low quality, personally would pay a bit extra to feel safe.

I didn't go that cheap for KMC but after using one Amazon seller once to buy a cheap one, the new chain lasted a few hundred miles and snapped. The last time I snapped a chain was circa 10 years before that when I deliberately ran a chain too long.

Much bigger pillow needed.

On genuine, always hard to say. One review had it 'got a puncture, so not genuine'.

I placed an order for two items. One came with the wrong parts so used their online AI chat and rejected a refund in favour of them sending the correct parts.
A week or so later the complete item rather than just the corrected parts turned up, then a good few weeks later another parcel arrived. They had resent the other item in the order!

Loads of Mavic wheels on there, but I doubt they are genuine.
