To check real or fake the Sennheiser site describes QR code on box. My box doesn't have a QR code. Fake? I bought it from "sold by Amazon.com" :-(

Yeah, if it's sold by Amazon, it's real. I called ahead to make sure that they were an authorized dealer. I ordered it, and got a real one.

They're real, Amazon.com is an authorized dealer in the sennheiser site so you're good.

I don't know how I'd be able to tell them apart from fake ones but I have a friend who got there same ones from the mall and ours are identical in appearance and quality. Also since mine completely destroy my Sony headphones that cost over twice as much I'm sure they are real

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.

I don't see any authentic PX100 [original/classic] anywhere on the web or fleabay now. If anyone knows of authentic, let me know. and for you who use them, know them, know the competition - what's the alternative?I use mine for live sound - i'm a bassist and occasional guitarist - these work so stinking well with my personal mixer.... incredibly clean, do not color, efficient yet will not clip unless stupidity sets in.

LG reflective sticker on box shows authenticity. The coating on the blutooth is shiny. The fake ones are dull. The logo on bluetooth has the perfect LG printing. The fake one appears large and does not seem like the original LG logo (You have to really look at the LG logo to determine a real from a fake) The real one offers 3 sets of different earbuds sizes, and also a warranty card. Knockoffs does not offer a warranty card. Also buy from a seller that has good standings with amazon - the ones that have sold a lot of things (preferabbly in the thousands), and look for 4-5 star rating. Dont buy from 3 and under star rating. Good luck LG reflective sticker on box shows authenticity. The coating on the blutooth is shiny. The fake ones are dull.

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.

No. I did have to return my first pair I bought off of amazon.com as Sennheiser had no record of the serial number and confirmed they were fake. The second pair I purchased off of amazon I ensured that it said sold and fulfilled by amazon. Sennheiser was able to confirm the serial number with the second order. No problems with them at all.

Yes, There is a QR code label and when U scan it on your phone browser will take you to product verification site. Under the verification site, some characters will be displayed in the browser and you will be asked whether these characters appear on the QR code label on the package!!? If Yes, then its a legit product!!

The Clarasonic that I purchased was unopened, in original packaging and verified as real? I read the reviews regarding counterfeits which made me very reluctant to make a purchase. I decided to make the purchase and as soon as I received it, I immediately contacted Clarasonic to register my Mia2 and spoke to thenm about counterfeit units. they went thru a series of identifier for counterfeit units. i gave them the serial numbers and they registered it with no problem. My sister also purchased a Mia 2 and had no problem registering her Mia2.

No, Mine were made in china and look 100% real but they are fakes as the real ones are not make in china. they sound decent for the price even if they are fake. the metal band is off center and the band and plastic and already separating from each other. Deals on Wheels is not a Sennheiser Authorized Dealer. you should read my review about these. I decided not to go cheap after a bought these and purchased the Monster Turbine High Performance In-Ear Speakers http://www.amazon.com/Monster-Turbine-High-Performance-In-Ear-Speakers/dp/B001LNO722 Direct from Amazon.com and not from a reseller.

It was not a fake. I had complete Sony packaging. I bought the fake later on and the sound quality was terrible. The Sony was great.

A couple days ago (August 2014) Amazon seems to have restricted this listing to just the genuine Bose pads. Before they did, I bought mine from Accessoriesplus on this page. They were $5 cheaper and didn't charge sales tax. I'm 80% sure they were authentic. If you buy the ones that are fullfilled directly from Bose, then you can be 100% certain that they are legit, but you'll pay more for them. The other thing you could consider is buying one of the $7 or $8 pairs of obvious knockoffs. Then you'll have no doubt about their authenticity. I haven't gone that route yet, but plan to next time.

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.

If you look closely The Beats symbol on the outer part of the earpiece is a sticker on the fakes. You can also check on YouTube. Hope I was helpful.

It just depends on who you buy them from. I did my research on the companies who sell them, look at reviews and just trust they are selling real beats. And when I got them it came in a legit box and the guy I bought them for loved it and knew they were real.

Amazon sales may or may not be from authorized dealers, and that may change from day to day, so you need to make sure yourself. You can buy this headphone from the Apple store online, but if you buy from someone else for a reduced price, you may risk getting a fake. Always buy from an authorized dealer at the dealer's price. You can find out on the Amazon site whether a dealer is authorized.
