Following up with my previous article on "How to spot a fake Sennheiser CX300 White headphones?", I have discovered faked CX300 even on it's latest packaging. This time round the quality of the packaging is even harder to tell between fake and real ones. Ironically this item was discovered in the recent COMEX 2007 exhibition. Here are some photos for comparison. The photos are not well taken as I only had few minutes to check it out.
High resolution scanners are use to scan the images.
