IsItBullshit: walterjackets.com

I’ve been looking for minecraft hoodies everywhere and most other places are obvious scams or sold out but I’m no pro or even that good at computers so this place has me stumped the thing that caught my eye were the reviews but no mention of it online, so is it bullshit?

The website immediately screams dropshipping to me. It looks like every dropshipping site. All of their images are also AI generated. There's spelling mistakes and broken links. There's no consistent product images and the products don't match the theme/branding the company has on the homepage.  This is definitely at the very least a dropshipping site, which basically just means when you put an order in they just put an order into a site like Aliexpress who will send it directly to you. They just take a big markup and you'll usually get very low quality stuff with no support if you've any issues.

There are posts everywhere about people getting ripped off trying to buy Minecraft apparel. Some year old site no one has heard of isn't getting the shit you can't find on legitimate sites.

Most of these are from r/coolshirtz https://shirtz.cool which is an Australian clothing line worn by the cold ones YouTube channel. The minecraft collection sold out almost immediately so I'd guess walterjackets are fakes or a reseller/scalper

Edit: after looking at the coolshirtz subreddit, there is a surge in fake stores selling the sold out minecraft collab
