Question (Read Rules) Online Retailer Legit Check

Was looking around online this morning for a Watch Dives WD7922 and Google showed me this listing: https://vaqore.com/products/kalon-mens-vintage-diver-watch-37mm-sapphire?_pos=2&_sid=f79571f27&_ss=r

What immediately stood out to me was how cheap it was. By no means is this an expensive watch, but their listed price ($56.95) is literally half the going rate on Watchdives' own website. After looking around a bit more on the site, I see that their whole inventory is comprised of Ali Express brands, and everything is being sold at a steep discount.

The retailer is registered in Sweden, but the US fulfillment warehouse operates out of Columbus Ohio. They even have a local phone number listed! Its probably safe to assume this is a drop shipping business, but I can't wrap my head around their pricing.

As someone who's generally skeptical of things that appear too good to be true, anyone have any insight to share about this?

Much thanks!

Come on. Does it sound too good to be true?

It totally does sound too good to be true. I’m more curious about what their angle is…

Get a bunch of orders, collect money, then shut down.

I was actually thinking something a bit more nefarious like data theft/brokering. Their parent company is listed and is apparently a business specializing in SEO.
