Dr dre beats- REAL OR FAKE? Bargain alert

seanie69r

Through ebay Iv emailed the seller and they have stated that these dr dre beats wireless headphones are 100% real. That they are not fakes and everyone that has bought them have had no problems. Iv also checked their feedback and all looks good. These retail at 250e in Ireland. And they are for sale for 120e plus postage to Ireland for 20e. Sounds a steal if they are authentic. They also confirmed that serial number will be given once bought.

Where I need you guys. This is the item number you type into eBay search box and youl get all pictures up (180888401050) and judging by the pictures can you people confirm if they are real or are they good fakes. NOTE- I want the official beats. Thanks guys.

There is no way you'll get new electronic products on ebay for less than half of what they retail normally.

Also don't bother going with Beats as they're rubbish value for money, sound poor and if you buy from a non authorised retailer, likely to be knock-offs.

Thanks. So what headphones would you reccomend for value for money?

Have a look here and see if anything tickles your fancy. Most are available for delivery to Ireland.

Thanks. And is there a particular earphone/headphone you'd reccomend. My partners brother got the beats and when I heard them first it blew me away. Hence my interest in the beats.

Go into Arnotts and test for yourself. They have a load of headphones you can plug your mp3 player into to test including the Beats.

I found that my trusty (and relatively cheap) HD 205-II's sounded the best.
