Default Magnaflow Muffler id?

I dropped my cherokee off at a local exhaust shop while i was at work to patch up my exhaust and install a magnaflow muffler.. Well when i picked it up it sounded quieter than the stock muffler, and has no magnaflow stamping, i questioned the shop and they swore it was magnaflow... Do some magnaflow mufflers come smooth with no id?

I got a magnaflow a few years ago and mine has "magnaflow" in big raised letters on the bottom. But be sure to look on top for anything.

Well i got the ole bait and switch.... I Questioned the guy at counter (owner who i talk to originally wasnt there) He tryed telling me it was stamped on top... i told him it was smooth. He then proceeded to the backroom to call his boss. Came back and told me o they "accidentally" installed wrong muffler just drive up on lift we will fix it. He then came back to tell me they have no magnaflow mufflers in stock , so i accept flowmaster, they dont have those either.... And after i drove up on lift the guy who originally welded on the exhaust asked me why i was there. I told him they didnt install a magnaflow muffler on my jeep, he argued then went and also called his boss (he didnt know first guy already did). So guy #1 comes back to tell me " Erick ordered some magnaflow and flowmaster mufflers they will be here monday, just come in and we will install them then". To end my long post i told him they already cheated me once and i wasnt leaving without something in paperwork telling me they are installing the correct muffler monday free of charge.... Dont want to bad mouth a shop in public unless people want me to post the name and location of this sorry shop... I couldnt understand why the guy kept apologizing, because they installed wrong muffler or got caught....
