I know this not to be the case. Many of them are but there is some legitimate inventory there, I know several people in the industry.

  I just searched on Amazon for "Apple headphones". On at least the first page, all of the reviews stated they were fake. Can you find a link for genuine Apple headphones from Amazon?

    The first link has almost 11 thousand reviews and currently 34 sellers. 44% of those reviews are 5 star. 34% are 1 star. It is certainly the case that some of those sellers are selling fakes. It is also likely that some are selling authentic products.

      This is the first link https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MD827LL-EarPods-Remote-Mic/dp/B0097BEG1C https://www.amazon.com/Apple-MD827LL-EarPods-Remote-Mic/dp/B... The Q and A section and many of the reviews are saying that they are fake. They are $13.99. The real Apple headphones are $29.99 https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MNHF2AM/A/earpods-with-35-mm-headphone-plug https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MNHF2AM/A/earpods-with-35... Apple never sells anything at wholesale at over a 50% discount. Where would a third party company be getting new Apple headphones from where they could sell them profitably at $13.99?

        Carrier auctions, mostly. Anyway, if many of the units sold are fake and some are real, you'd expect a large number of reviews both ways, which is what you can see.

          Some wouldn't know they were fake and others wouldn't care.
