Cheapest price I've ever seen, it's from a Malaysian seller so it could be grey import.

Looks like he is selling more, at a slightly higher price w C5OZ = AU $226.94
LOL. Time to report the seller!!!
Gee where is he getting all these QC35's from. Must have sourced a pallet full worth of stock or some thing huh.
Yeah peoples here who bought this, you've all been had and you allowed yourselves to be had. If it looks too good to be true…
Look at the knob who bought 8 at this $238.88 price.
Fixed
The neutral and negative feedback from this seller from the past 30 days doesn't look favourable. Looks like the seller is into cheap knockoff products.
I recently saw a pair of Dr Dre Beats on the Dandenong Market for $10. I'm sure they're genuine. It's where I got my Ralph Lauren leather belt, which I hope is genuine or I'm out $5!
Bought one in the morning rush….
Now its wait and watch..
Sales of these headphones from this seller seems to have slowed down dramatically. I guess peoples are starting to wake up to it?.
Yeah any way. I'm thinking these are either counterfeit or hot goods. No doubt about it.
Whoever bought one, Let us know how you went or if you received it :P
Taken from the listing:
Q: Are these headphones legitimate Bose brand? Or are they replicas? 01-Aug-17
A: dear buyer thanks for your message items the same as show on our listing would you mind visiting our items description carefully,hope it can help you hope we can have a chance do business with you. any question,please feel free to contact us have a nice day thanks
I think this says it all.
Completely dodged the question as if not admitting any fault. Is for sure the seller knows is counterfeit.
Lol someone bought 5.
Someone bought 8 from his latest sale of this. And a few 4 here and there.

I just got the Item Sent message.
Seemed to be prompt on dispatching with estimated delivery of Aug 14-25.
Eagerly waiting now.
Yeah. Why are people deliberately buying counterfeit QC35 just a save a few bucks. I mean they know it's counterfeit, it's screaming that way.
Its surely fake. Item Description "Brand: Unbranded"
Thats clearly written there. Also the dimension does not match with the original ones.
Well paypal or eBay has probably got your back if they're fake, although isn't it illegal to post counterfeit items?
So when they tell you to return the item at the sellers expense, do you just tell them that you can't because it's illegal and PayPal/ebay isn't above the law?
Yeah sure, Paypal has your back, not. It's written in the Paypal terms and conditions that if Paypal can't recover the money back from the seller, then it's not a guarantee that you'll even get your money back, it's upto Paypal's discretion (goodwill) in that case whether they will give your money back or not. It's written there in the Paypal buyers protection policy. And you have no automatic entitlement for a refund. Paypal is not a payment money insurance company.
S9.5 Where we are unable to recover the whole or part of your payment from the seller we may, in our absolute and sole discretion, decide to make a payment as a gesture of goodwill.
S9.6 You have no automatic entitlement to receive any payments under the PayPal Buyer Protection Policy.
S9.7 The PayPal Buyer Protection Policy does not indemnify you for loss which may be incurred and it is not a contract of insurance.
https://www.paypal.com/au/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full#…
It amazes me the people who buy things thinking that it's a sure bet that they'd automatically get the money back through Paypal any way, treating them like a payment insurance company. These people have never read the Paypal terms and conditions.
Is it the exploding version?
Item description: UNBRANDED … good luck
Unbranded is likely a mistake.
It's quite clear from the pictures provided that it is branded. It has Bose written on both cups.
So does this 1:1 copy counterfeit have Bose written on both cups. That's why they are called counterfeits, exact looking copy. They are made to look just like the real thing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6YM7RxSTCc&feature=youtu.be
well the case definitely gives it away.
The color is not matching around 2:22 in the video
So why would the intentionally label it as 'unbranded'?
A fake is intended to trick you into thinking it's real. Why would you make it obvious that it's a fake? Honesty and fake don't go hand in hand. To clearly leave hints that it's fake defeats the purpose of fakes.
I'm not saying it's real. It might be fake. If it's fake you wouldn't admit that it's fake though, or who would buy it? If it's fake, it isn't fake because it says unbranded. It's fake because it's too cheap.
So that way they have an out if they get caught:
"Oh, BOSE QC35 is just the name of the product, not the brand - the brand is actually generic!"
Or something to that extent.
Selling fakes is illegal. If they're caught out they're done.
Bose QC35 is not a generic item like a sponge or soap where anyone can make their own brand of it. It's a brand and a model in itself. If they just titled it generic 'headphones', that would work. They'll still get in trouble for showing Bose logos on the cups though.
This is Malaysia we are talking about. Yes a foreign seller in Malaysia. They might not give a crap about these western laws.
I wonder how many listings we gota report before eBay bans this seller. found another gem http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/282594692196
Gee some thing seems strange there, price of $299.99 with a $99.99 Economy delivery. That delivery price alone is a scam on that sale considering that the seller was supposedly yesterday able to get them here for $228.88 delivered on the same Economy delivery.
I hope this isn't a case of a power seller got his eBay account hijacked by a scammer who is doing over heaps of peoples. Most of the stuff the seller had been selling previously has been $1-15 junk and suddenly starts selling Bose QC35 headphones for a hundred dollars?. Yeah sure sounds suss.
Has any one though that it could be a case of a hijacked Powerseller eBay account and you have been scammed?.
It would be funny if peoples starting receiving parcel boxes filled with $1 junk in them and they got scammed big time.
ok and the listing has ended with "This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available." which i think is a bit suspicious.
I also purchased these after receiving an email from eBay advising of a price drop. I have contacted the seller and he has responded stating he will issue a full refund immediately and cancel the order. If anyone's on the fence about these it might be worth doing the same thing.
Same, he also said will issue a refund, but still hasnt!
I've just had the initial paypal refund notice come through. Looking positive at this stage.
That wasn't an email come through right?. And are you sure that it actually originated from Paypal itself?.
Log into your Paypal account and check whether a Paypal refund has actually been lodged through there, if not then you've received a fraud email.
Yea had mine come through as well. Might leave a review warning it is likely to be fake
He's dropping the price even further?
No, well I'm not sure, however I had the QC35's in my cart prior to yesterday so when this guy uploaded his item, eBay sent me an email advising I should know about it. That's how I found it, then after seeing this post on OZB I thought it would be best to cancel. The transactions been cancelled via ebay, have to wait for the paypal refund now.
This seller is at it again this time selling what is most probably fake Nintendo NES Classic.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nintendo-NES-Classic-Edition-30-G…
As for the BOSE QC35, they all seem to have disappeared from sale. Maybe a bit suss that is after it suddenly sky rocketed the other day to $299.99 AUD, perhaps to try make it look like a genuine with the pricing.
So anyone who got them can confirm it was fake?
I have requested and received a full refund after not receiving anything from seller after 3 weeks….
Total waste of time.
The estimated delivery is 14Aug- 25Aug so they have till Friday then I will request a refund also.
So it's Friday 25 Aug now. Received any thing yet?.
By the way i told you would all be disappointed. This deal was not legit, plus you would have received a counterfeit any how. Also for what i can tell, all this sellers traces of prior listening have been removed from eBay and looks like may have been banned. Will probably resurrect under some other name to scam more peoples.
I have a tracking number now.
It was sent via china post, who's tracking isn't showing much information but when I put the tracking number into the iOS tracking app Parcel it says.
It was sent on the 22/8 and current status is 'Dispatch from Sorting Centre, AUSYDA'
please let us know if you receive
This deal thread was made on the 1/8/17. Why did it take them 3 weeks to ship it?. Maybe they were manufacturing more counterfeits in China?. That's dodgy.
Don't be surprised that it's a counterfeit. It was cheap for a reason because it's not a legit.
And also. This eBay item page for this deal has completely disappeared even although it was only made a few weeks ago, no trace on it. I click on the link in this deal description and it comes up as 0 results. I think this seller on eBay may have been banned or done a complete runner. All the sale listings from this seller that was posted on this thread is saying that the listing has been removed. Which is only supposed to happen after 90 days or more after the listing has ended.
So in my suspicion, these are definitely fake counterfeits and this seller has been banned and done a runner.
Even this sellers feedback link has been completely removed. He's been completely banned. Maybe a heap of peoples around the world started receiving counterfeits and was reported to eBay?.
Item arrived today and I’m sorry to say I have checked with Bose and they are indeed fake. You wouldn’t know however. They are amazing, sound quality and NC are off the charts. However they will not pair with the Bose Connect app or show up via USB on a PC or MAC.
I’ll start the PayPal process.
Told you all so. Fakes.
Funny how the seller seemed to had packed up shop and disappeared shortly after selling all these fake QC35. Even all the previous listings disappeared from eBay. He must have thought he had won the lottery when there was a sudden surge in sales of these fakes. Seller/scammer has probably gone on a luxury holiday.
Damn. Time to raise a PayPal case for buyers protection
