Ummm, might help if you give some more details of what you are after, what the main use will be, and what your price point is.

If they play out sound then they aren't fake. :-)

But seriously, at that price point, you probably won't get decent headphones on eBay to be honest.. You might as well buy some $30 Sennheiser CX300-IIs on Amazon.com.

Added it to my cart and shipping to Auckland, NZ was $5.08. Total price comes to around $33 USD.

look at the brainwavz at MP4 nation, you can buy them on Amazon but you get free postage at Mp4 nation. They are the best headphones for the price, read the reviews.

They might not look like much but they have incredible sound for their price:

I have owned two pairs of them and would happily buy them again.

The first pair I lost some of the rubber tips so I needed to replace them, I'm still using the second pair.

if you dont need a remote or microphone and on a tight budget then go for these , for that price you wont be disappointed.

My first pair of pistons lasted me for around a year before I lost the rubber tips.

Brainwavz were a bit fragile but they have improved the glue and assembly .  Wirecutter recommends them and that would be enough for me.
