The first contention that we have to deal with is whether product assembling from home is a real home based employment opportunity or not.
It is and it is not. Meaning to say that this line of work is also strife with scams as with most of other home based work employment opportunities. You need to sift through them and discover the real gems from the fakes.
We are here to help with that.

So there is a start up cost and you do need to pay. In most of the cases you will need to purchase a starting kit from the assembling company to get started with making your first batch of products. This kit contains the raw materials that are required to assemble the product along with detailed instructions. One or two products, I believe, also come with an instruction video. This is something you need to clarify with the product assembling company.

You finish making your batch, send it along, wait for it to be approved and you get paid along with the reimbursement of shipping fee.
Most of the product assembling companies claim to refund your money after you finish your second batch of products.

“So why do I have to buy the raw materials from the company and pay them for it?”, you may ask.
We figure the following explanation to be true, for the real and genuine product assemble companies, that is. When you take on the job to assemble a certain product for someone from home, you need to make the product up to the specifications and same as their original product. There is no accurate way of determining you use the right raw materials in terms of color, fabric, pattern, shape etc. apart from sending you the raw material yourself.
Some companies, however, allow you to buy your own supplies after you have successfully completed your first batch and have gained an ideas as to what you need to make the product right. These companies are our favorites as allowing the home worker to buy his / her own supply is a great sign that the company is doing honest work and not trying to scam people into sending them money on the pretext of buying supplies.
Clarify this detail from the assembling company when you speak with them.

Also if the comapany is providing the raw materials at the same price as the market, you might as well purchase it from them as then there will be less chances of the assembled product not meeting specification due to incorrect raw material.

Now, coming to the home assembly scams. Over 90% of the companies and the work offers are scams in our estimation and the general estimation by everyone else. Some are even of the opinion that they are all scams and not one assemble product company provides a genuine work at home employment.
We believe different. We believe that there are people working for some of the very few product assembling companies. You can search the popular home based work blogs and forums to find these people yourself. One such forum that has a lot of people working in various crafting capacities is www.wahm.com/forum/ . you can meet and discuss things with a lot of people there. But do come back and post your findings here as well!

How the product assembling scams work is this. They employ the practice of rejecting the work sent in by the person who has assembled their product. As mentioned before, you have to purchase a starter kit from the company to start that contains the raw materials and instructions. Now what they charge for the first starter kit either has some registration charges also added or the worth of the raw material is much less than what they charge you for it. You buy this kit, finish assembling the product and send it back for approval. If the company is a scam your product will never get approved no matter how carefully and accurately you have made it.
It is also natural for your product to get rejected by a legit company but these usually send the work back with explanations and description as to why your assembled item did not meet the quality check and give you a chance to fix it. The scams usually just inform you that since you could not make the first batch accurately, they have deemed you to be unsuited to work for them and have cancelled your subscription.

How to distinguish the Product Assembling Scams from the Genuine Assemble At Home offer?

That is not too difficult. You just need to be practical.
Do you know why scams are so widespread? And successful? They take advantage of the human psyche. They take advantage of the desperate and the needful. That is perhaps the most despicable part about work from home scams. People who fall prey to them and end up loosing money are in fact the ones that need an income the most and really can’t afford to loose any to a scam.
There are also those who are looking for a get rich quick scheme without doing much hard work. But these do not fit the profile of home assembly job scams. They mostly fall for scams like data entry, home typing, form filling, envelope stuffing, ad posting etc.

Would you trust a person you met enough to give him money if you never met him, spoke to him, knew where he lived or his / her phone number?
The answer is “No”. Apply the same rules to any company that you are intending to work with.
1. Do not send any money to a company that is vague about the work involved.
2. Do not trust P.O. Box addresses. You do not know where your money is going. Deal only with real address with a Building number and a street name.
3. Do not deal with any company you cannot communicate with thoroughly. Speak to someone at customer care over a phone number and clarify ALL details like work involved, refund policy, income potential etc.
4. If the company is not able to satisfy all your queries to your satisfaction, move away. Trust your instinct.
5. Check the companies credentials the best you can.
6. Find 5 other people who are working for that company. That is not a hard thing, believe me. Genuine home based companies and product assembling companies are rare. So if there is a genuine one out there, you will not have finding people working for them, if not in person then on forums on the internet.
