EASCO is an old, now-defunct brand that was owned by Danaher before the APEX Tool Group days. Even farther back, when it was an independent company, EASCO was the OEM for many Craftsman tools.
Those wrenches are clearly old stock, as the brand has been discontinued for years. They're the same Danaher-made wrenches that were sold under brands like Craftsman, Allen, K-D, etc. They're basic, but they work.
My thinking is the seller pieced these kits together with closeout tools for cheap. You were right to return them, as they were misrepresented by the seller.
I bought several of the K-D branded versions for cheap several years ago from a place that sold lots of NOS closeout tools.
