Legit Lighthouse capsules?

Hello, I'm new at Numista and in general coin collecting.
I wanted to keep some of my coins in Lighthouse capsules, so I recently bought a pack of 10 just to test. 
Today I've found similar capsules being sold also branded Lighthouse, but a bit cheaper.
Can anyone tell if those are legit? The package pic is attached below.

Have you looked on their website? There you should find all the information you seek. They have different kinds of round capsules that have different packaging but if those are cheap Chinese knockoffs with the same packaging design nobody will be able to tell you from some low quality stock image alone.

Sorry about image quality, that's all I got.  I couldn't find the same packages on the official site.

I believe these are made by Lighthouse for marketing by Numis.  From the site:

 

Original LIGHTHOUSE coin capsules are the optimal protection for your coins. 
Made of extra durable, scratch resistant acrylic.
Chemically inert. Acid- and softener-free.
Securely locking, yet easy to open.
Compatible with Lighthouse coin boxes.

It's not your wrong doing.
 

Maybe they are just old stock images [LINK] and/or old stock, sold for a reduced price.

The grip ones that look the same don't have the Numis marque on them [LINK].
