I too have a question about the authenticity of my headphones. When I received them I thought, wow these dont sound so great my $20 Sony buds sound better. Then I started doing some research and came across this thread.
I purchased from Buy.com via reseller Sebago Trading.
They came in the blue cardboard packaging but with the L connector. In addition 3 sets of buds came in a plastic bag and they also came with the pick. The metal tin had a big dent in the bottom.
Is it possible to know if they are authentic or not from what I described above? Are they just old stock?
thanks
edit- somebody posted pics of an authentic pair, the inside has what looks like a mesh screen inside the tube. Mine do not.
