The white balancer appears to be similar in size but with a grey surface finnish.

As they are inside a poly bag with the mag the clue as to what you get is that the reflector is in the white pouch

I picked one up, what the hell, it would be worth the cover price, but it turned out to have a 1" rip down the side, and will probably fall apart on the first field trip.

My experience with reflectors is that some do not last long because the steel frame cuts the fabric, unless it is first wrapped in tape, which is not the case here. Oh well. Even expensive 12" ones do not last!
