When I was checking Banggood and Alibaba, I noticed that the factories would put anyone's name on the lights for no charge after about 25 sets ordered. The two name above are the Chinese middle men. The nice part here is that they take a much smaller cut than a middle man (or two) here does. All the lights are from China but the prices are many times as much when you buy from a retailer here.

I was in import and export for many years (on my days off and after my other career) and know most of the tricks of the trade. In the old days, things were made here and fair traded so getting a discount from a manufacture required having a business. Now, it's the wild wild west. Pick the right product, be a little business savvy and you can make money. Direct import has worked for quite a while and even with increased tariffs, it still works well.
