I know this isn't exactly what you were looking for, but I did buy one of these players from UXCell in the 4GB version and it really was 4GB. It is what is commonly called a Glacier or Glacier-type player.

I don't know whether or not there really is a legitimate 8GB version of this, from what I understand Action chip players like this are the ones that are more easily hacked but that doesn't mean it can't be legit.

I have heard good things about TinyDeal so I ordered a player from them the other day, but it was the touchscreen 8gb one, not this player. I haven't received it (it just shipped today from HK) but will post a review when I do.

Another thing to be aware of is that it seems like some of these shops are using eBay under different names (identical descriptions and pictures), so try to be careful you don't buy the same player from the same shop under a different name if you want to avoid a repeat.
