“My suppliers let me down” – But sellers like ieverise86 continue to sell fake Sennheiser IE8′s.

ka2me has just posted on head-fi the story of buying fake Sennheiser IE8′s from the ebay seller ieverise86 . If you look at the negative feedback given by ka2me, there’s the old and tired excuse from the seller.

The only problem with a response like that from a seller, is that ieverise86 has gone on to sell more pairs of Sennheiser IE8′s to others, for the same suspiciously and obviously counterfeit price of well under $100.

The Excuse

The excuse of, “I need to check with suppliers” and “My suppliers have sold me fake” implyuing that the seller knows nothing about it, is just pure garabge, and in my experience of buying fake headphones, it’s and excuse they ebay sellers use.

Sennheiser IE8 price in Australia

If you have a look on headphonic, which is one of the most reputable online headphone stores that I know of, the Sennheiser IE8 retail for $548 (AUS). Now that’s a lot of money, but there’s one overriding redeeming feature about the price, and that’s the Sennheiser’s authenticity.

At below $100, like this joker ieverise86 has got them priced at, you’re taking an unnecessary risk with your hard earned. Don’t do it!

Other Suspiciously low priced headphones from ieverise86

Looks like there are some other interestingly priced headphones from ieverise86 including a pair of Sennheiser IE7′s for $29.50 and a pair of Bose IE’s for $54.50. Like they’re going to be genuine. Again according to headphonic, the IE7′s retail for $380.00 and according to the Bose website, the Bose In Ear retail for $149.00
