Default How you can tell if is a fake or real Walbro fuel pump

High guys, I'm looking to buy a Walbro 255, high pressure, fuel pump for my turbo application. I have check on ebay and pretty much everywhere the price is about the same. It seems to me that every website is selling them but they all look the same, is there a true true walbro fuel pump, what should I look for, is there a way to tell if you are getting a walbro fake look alike or the real deal. Can you guys tell me where should I get mines from. remember is a Walbro 255 "high pressure" fuel pump for a 92 Honda civic. If i posted it in the wron section forgive me and can someone put in the right section.
thank you.

Thanks a lot man, This campany never heard off, but I checked them out turn out to have the cheapest price that I have found less than $90 including delivery.. I even call then and explain to them about the fake walbro pumps going around. He told me they deal straight with walbro, he went the extreme and even open one of the boxes of the fuel pump and told me that i has the W on it and also Walbro in the metal case. I decide to go with this company, a few minutes later I received and email from them with the tracking number and everthing. if everything goes ok will for sure try again.
