I ordered these from 3d Corp but today received two pairs in boxes that say the company name is "Hi-Shock". Did I get a knockoff brand?

Check to see if it has 3DTV on the side. I don't remember what my box said. If they work well I would count my blessings :)

It sounds like it to me. Mine I ordered had 3d corp on the out side of the box.

B. Brown I'm not sure since I recently tossed out the box that they came in. However, on the side arm of the frames it has 3DTV CORP on it.

The glasses I ordered and received were stamped "3DTVCorp" on the left side. I suggest contacting 3DTV directly. Their customer service is really great.However, do they work?

The ones I purchased were still in its original packaging and everything included were not copies or fake. When I plugged them into my IPOD it recognized them right away as Heartbeats. I listen to music loud and when I made the volume just passed half way it warned me about the dangers of loud music on the screen. (Regular headphones do not do that.) They work incredibly well. I hope I have helped you out.

No they are not a knock off they are official headphones by Ludacris. The best investment I've made.

If you got them through Amazon, you're most likely ok. But there were (at least in the past) a LOT of counterfeit Monster Turbines (regular, Gold & Copper) on the market.The biggest tell-tale sign of the fakes is a recessed grill. You'll find some images here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/512386/fake-monster-turbine-pro-copper-comparing-real-vs-fakeBTW, congrats on your purchase. Assuming these are genuine, these are about the best IEMs you can buy, for any price :-)

I'm not too sure what point cybertext is making but I'll reply anyway.... I have purchased the "Plantronics MX150 Flexible Boom Headset with 2.5 mm Plug" from the seller "NEWandOEM" before. And I placed another order for the same item from the same seller just now. True, cybertext, the item is NEW. Also true is that this item is not OEM -- or at least I think it's not. The item(s) I previously ordered from this seller are marked "MX150BCAE. I just got off the phone with Plantronic -- and they have no such model number. Nevertheless, these possible knock-off and/or non-OEM versions DO work. And, unlike the other OEM versions which cost $30, these are less than $5 each. If anyone can show me where to find this model in a fancy-packaged OEM model for that price let me know!

Mine came from Amazon, but from a different company. Therefore; they are not the same. The picture is different. I sent them back and they re-sent them to me. Very unsatifised.

The pair I received for $130 are real...most are used and these are discontinued because the studio 2.0 are out now...with all tech prices eventually drop as upgrades flow into market

thats what made me nervous too. I've been trying to research... klipsch lists them as an authorized dealer on their site i tried calling but haven't had a call back from klipsch to verify authenticity and refund policy incase there is some tom foolery going on.

I've read posts that there are third party sellers selling counterfeit Sennheiser products. Did you purchase yours directly from Amazon and not a third party? Just curious.

Mine don't appear to have a model number on them anywhere- at least not a permanent one. All that is printed on them is "Global Vision_Kickback," "Taiwan CE," and the little eagle logo.I don't remember if they had any model number stickers on them when I originally got them. I have the packaging somewhere, so I'll see what (if anything) I can find tomorrow.

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.

They are unbranded. But I'm assuming its audiosync because they are the seller.

Mine were knock-off, they were called "Ultra-Firo's" Branding not visible in any picture. Don't waste your time with these. The correct ones are silver UltraFire from BatteryJunction.

They are genuine IF you buy directly from Amazon and not through third-party sellers. Some sellers are legit but most are not. Also, if for any reason you think that you received a counterfeit from Amazon (which is rare) you can just simply return them.

All you have to do is go to the GHD website and register it. If it doesn't let you, then you have received a fake. However I was instructed to buy from "sold and shipped from Amazon" and those were all originals.

My original set came in the box with my S3 so I never saw any other OEM packaging. I ordered a third pair recently as back up and the packaging doesn't look like OEM, just two plastic bags. One bag contained the earbuds and the other contained different size earpieces. They look, function, and sound identical to my other pair. For what it is worth Samsung is printed on the side of each bud but that doesn't prove authenticity. Mainly just check seller reputation. Bought the last pair from Simple Cell.
