The products on eBay are the same as on Amazon now. All Chinese sellers or drop shippers.



Amazon is completely and utterly flooded with companies that sound like they fell right out of a random string generator. If you'd like a bedside alarm clock for example, you have to sift through pages and pages of nonsense "brands" like Tisaika, Keniy, Noklead, Yissvic, Anjank, Coulax, Famicozy, Noklead, Liorque, Jiemei, Paladone, Yzzseason, Tokincen, Hopsem, Mosuo and Moxtoy.

It is now incredibly difficult to find products by reputable brands that you stand a chance of recognising, and if you do, they are probably knock-offs too.
