I have an Orange Micro Terror that I know is made in China.
Orange has marked it on the back side "Made in China" NOT "Made in PRC" (Public Republic of China).

I think that probably is the correct way, and not Made in PRC... sounds like a fake...
Please see the above photo of a genuine Orange Tiny Terror that clearly shows "Made in PRC"
The original poster's TT is probably a genuine Chinese made TT, but it is unliklely to be a genuine hard wired TT.

Just gonna throw this out there but if an amp was a fake wouldn't you have a problem registering it on Orange's website?

Can't see where it says second hand. Just that it was purchased via E-bay, and being sold as a HW when it clearly wasn't. :?

If the OP hasn't done anything about it via EBay I suspect it is now far too late. The fact that they had contacted Orange (21 Aug.) suggested to me that it probably was a new amp, but who knows. Maybe we never will...
