I suppose I should have somewhat known better – what good are headphones when they come from what looked to be a zip lock bag, were 2/$25 at Pacific Mall, and make some kind of questionable cracking noises when adjusting the soft ear pieces? A nice Gadget Girl Fail. Serves me right for dilly dallying into a store looking for a micro USB car charger, and moseying out with two pairs of headphones.

Lesson? If it’s too good to be true, it’s probably fake. Well foiled Pac Mall.
