Okay. I got this new strap for my Strat. Can anyone guess what brand it is? It's a "hands" crafted, nonlimited Edition Chinese creation. :)

Hello Alan. That is a mighty fine guitar strap. Brand? Your guess would be good.

I bought a "Fender" leather guitar strap from a Reverb seller and when it came the whole thing was made from cheap vinyl. Wouldn't trust any of my guitars on that thing! The seller thought I was rude demanding my money and pointing out that selling it as "leather" was essentially fraud. He then somehow got Reverb to remove my negative feedback. I've bought other things through Reverb, but don't trust their feedback anymore.

I have a Dockers belt bought from an authorized Levi's/Dockers dealer, stamped with "Genuine Leather".
It broke within days, and turned out to be what looks like woven cardboard covered with black vinyl paint on one side and beige vinyl paint on the other. Attempts to contact Dockers to tell them that they were had by their Chinese partner was not met with any positive response.

Companies buying branded goods from dubious manufacturers is indeed becoming a problem.

Yes. I agree with you!

Also, buying from a "reputable source" is no guarantee that it is not a pirated item. Chinese pirate items are a problem up and down the supply chain. It is not limited to just music-related gear...

Very true. In my work function, I have seen counterfeit memory chips and Nichicon branded capacitors that were clearly fake. Luckily, the quality was so bad that it was easy to spot, but sometimes the items are just bad, not horrible, and it's not discovered up front.
