I just received mine today. I haven't removed them from the packet yet. I'm in the process of taking some pictures. I'm sure these are the same as I purchased previously at a market for £15.
Thing is, if these are fakes which I'm almost sure they are, they're very, very good, especially the outer packaging. But if you look long enough, you see some that wouldn't be expected from a large manufacturer such as Sennheiser. I'll point them out when I post the pics later. But they are good/close enough to fool 99% of purchasers as proven by the overwhelming positive feedback of the sellers.
As for the actual headphones, I was very impressed by my previous pair until I broke them, but then I'd never owned a pair of ear-canal buds before and never spent more than £20 on earbuds at all so I'm not the best person to judge.
Anyway, I'll pop my pics up later and I'm seriously thinking of ordering a genuine pair (£20ish) and comparing, taking more pics. Only thing is if I was going to buy a £20 pair of buds, I'd probably go for Shure EC2 at £35.
What to do...
