well I had assumed that they had copied the originals to the "b" I'm pretty sure the drivers are most likely the same, and the amp design is identical, but i need some time to A/B wouldn't it be a RIOT if they sounded Identical, they already look identical enough that if you bought a real pair you'd have to put a label on each designating "real" and "fake" so you don't get them mixed up.
To be honest, for $30 a pair, I feel comfortable buying 3 pairs, ripping out the internal amp and finding a way to shove a Pa2v2  in there, and install some decent closed drivers.

Hmm for $30 I'd consider picking up a pair of unsanctioned beats, since that is closer to what they are worth before markup. Got a link?

My dad's GF actually FLEW to China on business and picked them up and brought them back, I might be able to get her to buy 2 more pairs for me, but I'll have to pay her for them and I'm a greedy mofo and ain't gonna give em up.
Last I checked a run to China costs about $2k last time my friend went a few months ago, my dad's GF's job pays for her trips.

fact is if your buying beats for style it's best to go with fakes. i have seen pictures of fakes that look much better then real beats (ferari beats, etc). plus they are cheaper so it's a win win situation.

Thing is with beats in public, noone hassles me or gives me weird looks, they are the "socially accepted" large headphone
thing is these knockoffs don't sound that bad, if they retailed for $100 I wouldn't feel ripped off at all, they sound like Ultrasones, but with slightly recessed mids, all in all not TOO bad, no way in HELL I'd pay $300 for them though. I paid $280 for my Sony MDR-Z1000's and they are quite nice, considerably smaller than I thought they would be though...

Head-Fi is starting to feel like Goodfellas. Good luck with that, it seems like you have a really good opportunity at hand. It would be a great DIY project too: driver transplant into the Beats. However, any DIY without durability is not worth the hassle, and if the original Beats already broke by you looking the wrong way at them, these can't be any better.
 
I agree that they are probably made from the same factory that makes the Beats, this is very reoccurring in PC hardware, in which a factory creates 500 CPU chips, sells 450 at Intel, and sells the other 50 themselves for 1/10 of what Intel charges. But in this case, that only tells us it's just as good as the Beats in durability, which really isn't saying much. But hey, maybe you'll get lucky good luck!

for $30 I don't really care, and she gave them away to family members and friends. You do NOT sell counterfit stuff on Ebay, or anywhere for that matter, it is a big no no.

Sadly i don't think i have enough $ to go to China.
Any website which we can purchase from at $30?

 

[crayonhead]

umm..
30 USD with shipping..impossible. 30 usd for the headphones and accessories, and a bit extra for shipping, very possible.
 
about 30 usd for b-stock white or black for studios. 35 for a-stock white or black.

Please note, I do not know the sellers, so I cannot attest to their reliability. Nor do I condone buying fakes. 
 
Finally, I don't know if they'll ship internationally. My house cannot be the conduit due to the fact that I'm already under tight bounds by the Chinese Government.
