fake? I notice a lot the the private sellers here are selling this 50 dollar product for 17 dollars. Are they the same product or ripoff?

I just received my headphones from "StashurCash" and I too think I just got ripped off. I haven't opened the packaging yet, but I might just ship them back and hope I get a refund.

I just got a pair from seller "clearav" for $39. The sound is tinny and completely bass-free, so I think I got ripped-off as well. I see they charge a 30% restocking fee, which also leads me to believe these aren't the best folks to be dealing with. I'm going to return them, take my medicine, and chalk it up as another lesson learned.

I just ordered two sets from e-bay. Would you mind telling me who you got them from? I hope I didnt' get dupped.I was really afraid of those .99 ones. I knew those had to be fake but the guy had great feedback and people were snapping them up.

I bought a pair of Sennheiser CX300B's on eBay, and got a fake pair. They look completely real, and don't have any of the signs of being fake that other people posted online, but I noticed one difference (aside from the sound quality): The plastic on the headphones is cheap and shiny, not grainy in texture and slightly rubbery like the real ones. Do not buy these on eBay. The person I bought from seemed 100% legitimate, as they had no negative feedback and had sold a couple pairs of these before. I paid $20 for a piece of useless plastic that delivers terrible sound, and I'd advise anybody not to take that chance. I bought a pair of Sennheiser CX300B's on eBay, and got a fake pair.

Amazon sells fakes too! I bought mine directly from Amazon.com and they turned out to be fake by every indicator. Poor sound quality, shiny plastic, etc.

I'm wondering the same thing. After my own positive experience with these phones, some friends also bought the same phones. I bought them for close to full price, and they came in *very* retail packaging that was extremely difficult to open, so I'm sure mine are legit. However, the friends in question both bought them for less than $20 from 3rd-parties, so we'll be able to compare quite easily if they're Chinese bootlegs. When they arrive, I'll make sure to post back if they turn out to be fakes.

I had two different friends pickup CX-300's on my recommendation. Both opted for the < $20 retailers, and both ended up with fakes.Generally speaking, if you bought them off eBay you can bet that it's a counterfeit, which I've begun calling "Fakeheisers". These are good knockoffs; unless you had a pair of real Sennheisers to compare them with it'd be hard to tell the difference in appearance without disassembly. The sound though, is far, *far* inferior to the real thing. If you want Sennheiser quality, buy from a reputable dealer. If you try to get the lowball deal, you might as well go for any old generic Chinese phones instead. I had two different friends pickup CX-300's on my recommendation.

Yes. There is a tremendous amount of fake CX-300B from China out there. Anyone selling these for less than $40 is selling the fake Chinese versions. Google "fake cx-300B" and you will see what I mean. I would recommend purchasing directly from Amazon or an Amazon Fulfillment store to ensure you are getting the real thing.

Bought mine for the $30 price. I agree with Bryan that it's probably just different sellers. Go with your wallet!

To my knowledge this is the genuine product sold by Amazon. I have found you have to shop around because there are many persons out there who don't mind charging as much as they think they can possibly can get away with. I have been taking the product now since April and have no complaints with it.

I have bought several, and most of these are fake. I did buy one that was the real thing. I can't find the seller,

I would start by checking the sellers satisfaction rating and reviews. Fakes or bootlegs are almost always much much cheaper than the real thing. That is a big red flag. I'd say this probably isn't a bootleg. This figure in particular is new enough and unpopular enough that I would be surprised if there are fakes made already. Amazon should talks care of you if the seller misleads you. For me, if the deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

I cant tell you exactly why they sell it at such a low price but I can say that when I purchased this exact item it came in perfect condition and worked wonders on my skin. So, if your wondering about the validity of the product, its definitely legit. So go for it :P

This is is legitimate, I can't speak for third party sellers, but products sold and shipped by Amazon are absolutely authentic. it illustrate this. Both Best Buy and Nordstrom's will price match any item sold on Amazon as long as it is listed as shipped and sold by Amazon and new. I just bought a bottle of Hanae Mori Eau de Parfum 1.7 oz that retails for $74 for $25.15 since I could get it for that on Amazon Prime, same with a 3.4 oz bottle of Bvlgari Man Extreme Eau de Toilette which sells for $84 for retail was reduced to $42 when I scanned and showed the Amazon Prime price to the clerk at Nordstrom. They won't accept pricing from third party vendors though. So buy with confidence from Amazon at least.

Thank you for noticing! I thought I was the only one who questioned this. I would never have known if I hadn't tried to order one for my mom's birthday because she liked mine so much. I nearly dropped my teeth when it was listed at $119.00. I checked the next day and it was $249.00! In addition, there was a new seller. It appears as if the second seller bought out the first one. Other sites seemed to have their stock dried up as well. When I bought mine Amazon sold it and I used my prime membership to save on shipping. Seems like someone figured out a dirty little way to scam us. I wonder how many other low profile products are going the same way. I called customer service. I did not get a satisfactory response, so I e-mailed them just now. I hope they take notice.

I face the same problem. I believe some sellers under this product sell the counterfeit item, and it's not identical to the product image shown on the product page. I already contact customer support. Be aware of this issue.

I really would like to listen more about purchases from those who bought this Sennheiser CX 300-B directly from Amazon.com. Right now I would not even trust the 3rd party seller in Amazon that selles earphones at full price EVEN with 100 % positive reputation. At least guitarsonmars seems to be a lucky guy who got a legitimate product. If more guys show up telling that they got a legit product from Amazon, I would be encouraged to regain my confidence with Amazon (only in with this product), but at the moment it seems to be rolling dices at best. More updates would be highly appreciated. Therefore, plz. anyone who purchased Sennheiser CX 300 write something here.

I ended up with a knockoff one too, from "West Port York." This is such a scam. Everything on the page indicates that its a TheraCane made by TheraCane. This one has no name on it anywhere and came in a crumpled plastic bag with nothing else, no manual, label, nothing.

You should ask what ever seller that you are purchasing this from and not post here. I would suggest buying direct from Amazon as you would be less likely to get a counterfeit product.

Thanks for posting this. Because of this I decided to buy direct from Amazon only. Not any sellers I'm pretty sure I have the real one, The only difference with mine is the charger but I don't care if that if fake or not. I know I have the real wep200. Plus I got a great deal with amazon like 25.00 don't know if it was a clearance or just a sale. Thanks!

If it is, it's a good one. It looks exactly like the one in Edwin Watts, but it is $50 cheaper. I think that's the whole point in buying online. If it is counterfeit but performs the same would you have a problem with paying $50 less?

I KNOW right?!? What has been happening to Amazon lately? More than half of the reviews I read seem to be "fake"! This really makes me feel nervous about buying the products because if companies have to pay people to leave fake reviews, its says something about their integrity, and probably about the quality of the product too...
