I would report the situation to eBay and to PayPal. |

What do you recommend I do? The
seller is offering a full refund, however I don't want to see this Mic
back on the market. eBay has erased any record of the transaction, so
there's only my paypal claim to try and recoup my loss. Should I go to
my local authorities? |

It is definitely counterfeit. We
work with eBay on a daily basis to remove counterfeit products. Each
month we report about 4000 counterfeit items to eBay. We recommend
purchasing Shure products through a local authorized dealer. Items on
eBay are pulled at our request. |

I have purchased an SM57 off eBay.
It was not a too-good-to-be-true price. But eBay pulled the listing and
gave me no reason. I had already paid, and the mic showed up on my
doorstep. It just felt wrong. It sounds wrong to me. So I disassembled
it, and took pics, and put a multimeter on it. I have documented it
here:

Could you please look at that and tell me if I have a fake or not? |
