Temu, TikTok Shop, and AliExpress Are Stealing From Artists—And You're Funding It. Boycott!
If you’re buying from Temu, AliExpress, or TikTok Shop, let’s be real—you’re getting the worst quality bumper stickers imaginable while also supporting stolen artwork, unethical labor, and environmental waste.
We know this because we’ve seen our own original sticker designs stolen, mass-produced, and sold on these sites—sometimes WITH OUR WATERMARK STILL ON THEM. That means they’re so lazy, they’ll take our listing, steal the exact image, and throw it up for sale with no shame.
That means we’ve seen:
🔹 Our exact sticker designs being sold on Temu—same fonts, same layouts, everything. Copy and paste.
🔹 Our own product mockups stolen and used on their listings. I even see my own HAND in photos on Temu.
🔹 Our watermark or Instagram handle still visible on the images—meaning they didn’t even try to hide where they stole it from.
That’s not just a coincidence or an inspiration moment—that’s outright theft.
You might think you’re scoring a great deal on a funny bumper sticker, political decal, or a personalized car magnet—but what you’re actually buying is stolen artwork, produced under exploitative conditions, and printed on the lowest-quality materials imaginable.
Even worse? We’ve had customers accuse US of reselling Temu stickers—when the truth is, Temu stole from us. You have no idea how many messages I get saying "I saw this on Temu for cheaper" and "You got these from Temu!" - Seriously? You think Temu is designing anything? No, they are stealing from small artists for a fast cash grab. You got scammed, babe. Companies doing this to us hurts us all around.
We’ve even come across small, local businesses selling our own designs, thinking they were buying wholesale when in reality, they bought stolen knockoffs from Temu to resell.
If you wouldn’t walk into a small shop and steal something off the shelf, why would you buy from a company that does it for you?
Why Buying from These Sites RUINS Small Artists (And Your Life)
If you want to support creativity, originality, and ethical business or if you care about high-quality funny bumper stickers, supporting real artists, and not getting ripped off, here’s why you should think twice before ordering from sitss like Temu, Shein, AliExpress, or TikTok Shop:
1. They Exploit Artists & Small Businesses
No small business is “selling” on Temu. It’s not like Etsy, where independent creators list their own work. These platforms mass scrape designs from small shops and turn them into unethical factory-made products with zero credit to the original artist.
If you’ve ever:
🚗 Seen a coexist sticker on Temu that looked familiar to one on Etsy
🚗 Noticed a funny car bumper sticker on AliExpress that seemed identical to a small businesses design
🚗 Thought, “Wait, haven’t I seen that on Instagram before?”
Chances are, you were looking at stolen work. And yes, it's illegal. But, it takes a whole army and loads of time to track down all of your stolen IP online.
Most people don’t realize just how bad the theft is. These companies don’t just copy ideas—they steal the entire product listing.
🔹 They steal designs from small artists and independent businesses.
🔹 They take mockups and product photos directly from our shop.
🔹 They even leave our watermarks on sometimes, proving they stole it.
2. The Quality is Awful
Here’s the deal—cheap products are cheap for a reason. You get what you pay for. Do you really want to pay to fill a landfill? Be smart with your spending.
We’ve seen review photos of our stolen designs on Temu, and the results are horrific:
❌ Crumpled, folded, and creased stickers—completely ruined on arrival.
❌ Paper-thin material that rips easily.
❌ Blurry, low-resolution printing that looks nothing like the original.
❌ Peeling edges before they’ve even been used.
❌ Fading after just a few days in the sun.
When you buy a funny truck bumper sticker or a Harris Walz bumper sticker from us (LOL), you’re getting professional-grade vinyl, weatherproof ink, and designs that last. When you buy from Temu? You’re getting a sad, wrinkled mess that won’t survive a single car wash.
People buy a cheap Temu funny car bumper sticker thinking they’re getting a deal, but instead, they get garbage that doesn’t even survive a week.
If you want a high-quality, weatherproof bumper sticker that actually lasts, don’t trust mass-produced knockoffs from AliExpress or TikTok Shop.
3. The “Shop Like a Billionaire” Slogan is Insulting
Temu's slogan? "Shop Like a Billionaire"? Out of touch. First of all, billionaires exploit, steal, and profit off the work of others.
💰 They exploit underpaid labor in overseas factories.
💰 They steal designs from real artists and mass-produce them.
💰 They don’t care about quality, ethics, or sustainability.
They also... don't shop like this.
💰 Billionaires don’t buy 500 low-quality items for 5 cents each. They buy high-quality, well-made products that actually last.
💰 Billionaires don’t settle for cheap, paper-thin garbage. They pay for the best because they can afford it.
💰 Billionaires don’t shop on Temu. You know who does? People who are trying to save money but end up getting low-quality junk that falls apart in a week. They're literally exploiting the poor.
Temu is tricking people into wasting money on disposable, mass-produced garbage. Meanwhile, small businesses and artists—who actually create high-quality products—are getting ripped off and undercut by these exploitative platforms. Double whammy.
Buying cheap doesn’t make you smart. Buying something built to last makes you smart.
When you “shop like a billionaire,” what you’re really doing is buying into a system that devalues creativity, underpays workers, and floods the planet with garbage. Shopping like you have money doesn't mean you buy 20 pieces of garbage for $5 to fill up the landfill - it means you shop cautiously and buy high quality.
Why not shop like a person who values creativity, originality, and products that actually last?
4. It’s Not a Sustainable Way to Shop
🚨 Temu and AliExpress are flooding landfills with trash. Since their products fall apart almost immediately, people throw them away and order more. It’s a never-ending cycle of waste.
🚨 They use exploitative labor practices. That $1 sticker? Someone, somewhere, made it for next to nothing in conditions you probably wouldn’t be okay with if you saw them firsthand.
🚨 They harm independent businesses. Every sale Temu gets means less support for real artists, small shops, and businesses that actually care about their work.
5. The Prices Are Cheap for a Reason (And It’s Not Good)
How do they sell products so cheap? It’s not magic. It’s because they:
🚨 Mass-produce products using exploitative labor—paying workers shockingly low wages
🚨 Use the cheapest materials possible—so the stickers fade, peel, and fall apart
🚨 Steal designs from artists and pay them $0—so they don’t have to invest in creative work
🚨 Cut corners on quality control—so what you get in the mail looks nothing like the listing
You get what you pay for—and when you buy from Temu, you’re paying for a product that was made as cheaply as possible, with no concern for durability, ethics, or originality.
If You’re a Small Business, You Should NEVER Resell Temu or AliExpress Products
This should go without saying, but if you’re thinking about reselling stickers or magnets from Temu, don’t.
❌ You’ll likely be selling stolen designs. You might think you’re buying bulk “free-to-use” products, but they were likely stolen from an independent artist. There is a huge risk you will be sued by the actual artist when they see what you're selling.
❌ You could get banned from selling platforms. If Etsy, Shopify, or another marketplace catches you selling IP-infringing designs, your shop could be shut down.
❌ Your customers will hate you. If you try to sell a sticker that falls apart in a week, expect bad reviews, refund requests, and a bad reputation.
If you want to start a sticker business, work with original designs and quality materials. Contact your local sticker artists. But don’t build a brand on mass-produced theft.
