Bought some promising earbuds from China, waited a little over two weeks for them to get here, received them today and they're fakes.

Put them on and the sound quality was awful, and then I looked at pictures + a video and noticed that I definitely got the fake ones as mine aren't even the same color, etc.

At least I only spent $20 (and in gift cards, not even legit money) so it's not a big loss, I guess. Though I already knew there was a risk as people warned that in the product reviews, but there was pretty much no way I would know if the seller was legit or not so of course I picked one of the floppy ones. Just the cherry on top of an already annoying day.
