    If it was from Amazon directly, they will be fine.

    If it was via one of their 'sellers', most are fake

    I think it may have been a seller :/
    And I remember giving him poor feedback because they took about 3 weeks to arrive, which prompted him to send me an angry email.
    Don't think I'll get getting anything off a 'seller' again.
    Thanks though.
    Ended up (for better or worse) getting a pair of Sony MDREX32 earbuds, just because I was in Tescos and they were there for £15, and I wanted new earphones right away.
    The sound is good on them, good length of wire too, here's hoping they last

    To be fair the last pair had good sound quality (I'll dig them out later and have a look though).

    edit: huh, they actually are genuine

    Re: Sennheiser CX 300 - crap.

    Unfortunately, earbuds seems to have a knack of losing sound from one earpiece from the dozen or so I've had in my lifetime. However, I've been pretty careful with my last few and they're all working still (touch wood!)

    The Senn CX300s are fantastic for the price though; best I've had.

    Re: Sennheiser CX 300 - crap.

    I've had two pairs of the CX300 and loved them....The Razor quality is suspect at best so stay away if you can.

    I have the Creative version of the CX300 and again top notch...plus 4 years old and still kicking, can't remember the model number sadly.
