REPLY:

I bought a Chinese 8877 from this guy with the "Pride" brand on it. I
got the impression he stamps the brand on it himself but I could be
wrong. 

The first one he sent me was supposedly brand new but it was obviously
not. It was dirty, tarnished and looked bad. I complained, he gave me
a song and dance, but eventually replaced it with one that really was
brand new. It now has many hundreds of hours on it and has been
working fine. 

For what it's worth.
