Afterword – Rous.store Scam
Is the Rous.store a scam? There is not enough evidence to safely say Rous is a scam. However, the vendor appears to be an Alibaba/AliExpress dropshipper. Here, we have another unofficial dropshipping vendor that should be avoided at all costs.
When you are selling the same products available on Amazon, eBay, Alibaba, and AliExpress, your line is not unique. It is a known fact, Amazon and eBay are over-saturated with Chinese-made products, most of which are poor-quality and undersized.
American landfills are being packed full of Chinese-made products from Amazon. A study conducted by Fifth Estate revealed tons of Amazon returns ended up in American landfills. This is a great documentary that utilized GPS to follow returns sent back to Amazon. Semi-trucks full of Amazon returns, all Chinese-made products, ended up in undisclosed American landfills.
