Found this website when looking at various electronic locks.
http://www.safes-china.com/
It appears that they make clones of S&G and LaGard. Some don't look very high quality though..

For a low price of $10. It is amazing what they will counterfeit

Im doubting these are made by Lagard.
Thoughts?

I see the fingerprint safe has a solenoid, I wonder if it can be bumped.

Yet another case of Chinese knockoffs that are sold as the real deal here through ebay. Note the price, 1-29 USD each. One dollar. You can also buy them on amazon for 79 dollars each. It is also sold elsewhere by safe and vault shops, some claiming the list price being quite high but giving you, valued customer, a steep discount. That being said I would buy one for $10-15 shipped.

It is a case of "UL listed" as in nobody bothers to check and Underwriters Laboratories has a piss poor authentication system. These do seem to be made and placed in some La Gard safes, or perhaps those safes are counterfeits too. Best thing that could be said is if it does not have one of the easily counterfeitable marks, then it isn't rated. I suspect this is all a very clever skirting of the law. Technically these can be found in La Gard safes, technically La Gard is UL listed, technically this lock does not have to display a UL mark because there isn't one specific to China, and technically they don't need the mark to sell it in other countries that do have marks because they technically have no direct operations outside of China and thus do no have to comply with any other laws or regulations.

Caveat emptor.
