It's identical to an Oster or Wahl trimmer, except that
the plastic case is pink instead of black, and the price
is something like $60 instead of $19.95.

I decided to buy the Wahl Mustache Trimmer ($16.99 on sale IIRC) after looking at the $70 "thread trimmers", the Wahl works great.

It really is the exact same thing. It's just a case of labeling. They do the same thing with tape measures and lamps and all sorts of things. If you buy it in a hardware, drug, or other regular store, it costs a fraction of what the specialty sewing shop charges. They do usually put a pretty cover on it, though. What am I telling you this for, anyway! You're the one went to the source for the scissors and hemostats!
