Does Amazon guarantee these are the real deal and not knock offs?

I have no idea about guarantees, but they're just as real as the first ones I bought, which were the "real deal". I don't think Amazon could get by with selling them as a "name brand" if they were fakes.

I'm no grey market filter expert but the ones I ordered here appear to be legit. I saw no indication of fakery with my order.

Yes they are originals. Watch out for those marked "Re-manufactured" though, they are not quite the bargain they appear to be.

I bought a pair that were fake on this site, the user refunded the money but never sent me an address to send them back. Buyer beware on some of these and I recommend buying them from the Amazon fullfillment center.

I think these may be counterfeit, or if not, certainly refurbs. The two I ordered were scuffed up and the one I tested didn't sound too good on eithe end. I sent them back and ordered a different brand. I agree with an Gordon that Amazon is a very high quality Web retailer, and I don't think they knowingly misrepresented this product. They were great about the return...sent me a pre-paid label and everything.

Buy directly from Amazon & not a 3rd party seller. That's the only way to be sure it's genuine.

They're authentic. I haven't seen any bootleg ones going around so I'm pretty sure you're safe with theseb^_^

Any product that is fulfilled by Amazon is authentic, but as another commenter pointed out, warranties may or may not be applicable. Always check warranty status before buying!

I'm trusting on Amazon that they are original. I've always bought from here and been very satisfied. I do know they're duscontinued. Regardless they will only work properly with Apple products.

Yes, these are genuine. You are right to ask, though... there are reputable stores that have sold fake versions of these (doubtless they were unaware of their lack of authenticity). I bought one from a popular online tech store at the same time I bought this one. The Amazon one was real, the other was not. I've spent the past 3 hours going over the details... there is no doubt about this unit's authenticity. (and it performs much better than the fake!)

No, these are definitely not knock-offs. These are what the government and industry buys. They are a heavier duty battery, i.e. longer life.

I was skeptical but they are marked Tommie Copper. I doubt amazon would risk fraud.

I just bought one and it was 100% authentic. I would just make sure that the seller is Amazon and not some other company.

Everyone I have ordered have been the real deal. Here is some help in identifying the fakes http://www.ngk-sparkplugs.jp/english/techinfo/fake/

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
