Description

This Alune company claims to be located in New York and to be selling high end lamps that are discounted due to a business closing sale. When the package arrived, it was very clear the product did not match the depiction, was discrepant from the description, and is extremely overpriced as the product is made of cheap materials and comes packaged poorly. Moreover, and the shipping origin is China and not US. The company refused to cancel/refund the order and only offered a 15% credit. In examining the site further, you will see that it was created in 2025 and there is not a mention of who actually owns this company. You can also find more detailed information about many of the products on the Alune site on Temu. Temu shows many of the exact same products and pictures as the Alune site; however, Temu clearly shows additional aspects of the products that would signal to customers that they are indeed are a low quality (e.g., cheap USB controller), whereas Alune does not include all the pictures/information about the products.
