Heya!
 
I was looking to buy Denon AH-C551 from: http://cgi.ebay.com/Denon-AH-C551-In-Ear-Headphones-Earphones-Black-/260667959965?pt=Other_MP3_Player_Accessories&hash=item3cb1056a9d#shId
 
I was about to click purchase until I remember "when things are too good to be true, they're usually aren't". So I wanted to bounce this off people.
 
So what are your thoughts about this? Legit?

Well lets see, the user is based in hk, 98% feedback.....fake i guess. Call it audiophiles six sense

Haven't heard any fake Denon C551 yet. It's not really well-known IEM unlike Sennheiser which has so many fakes around.

I haven't seen any fakes, doesn't mean they aren't out there.  
 
That reminded me that I bought a pair of these myself (real ones) that I never use.

Just one look at the link and it's 100% fake. Hong Kong-based. "OEM Package". Furthermore, it only comes with M size stock tips (no box, no accessories).

thanks for the heads up

I was really tempted to order them!

120% is fake. It is selling for roundly 27$ (~ 180CNY) in China. However, the sound quality is very similar to the real one. Unless you have both of them at the same time, otherwise you can hardly tell the difference.
