I received my Bower XBGPK7 Professional Battery Grip from an ebay Top-Rated Seller today and it works just like it should. B&H has it for about the same price.

Looks just like the "good" chinese one. (edit: and probably is the same one)

I could have saved money by purchasing the ones on ebay direct from China but my Pentax 1.7x AF adapter /TC took about a month from China and I wanted it in a few days. If you are not in a rush then you could save some money.
