Fed up with waiting for items from Aliexpress, i started to look around. I stumbled on a site called TEMU. The stuff they have on there is the same as on Aliexpress. The 2 plus is most bits come within 7/10 working days with free shipping. The other plus is the items are cheaper there.
Myself and son have both ordered from the site and have been 100% happy. One item came after the delivery date and as they guarantee for late delivery i got a £5 refund within 3 working days
Load of BMW stuff on there

Curios to know what you ordered - just had a look around and despite searching for "bmw r1200" got absolutely zilch.

Her Ladyship ordered a fan/water misting device when it was hot recently from Temu and I can't get it to work. Tried other USB leads etc still nowt. This can happen when you order Chinese stuff from anywhere though to be fair.

Just received a pair of Mesh seat covers. Made for the R1200RT and although the rear cover is very tight fitting, the front fitted perfectly. £9.99.
Delivered in 5 days.
