i no i feel bad, but i paid like 200 dollars like a jackass. and i posted it thinkin ppl would try to talk me down but he just said i have cash i want them. so i said okay.
and thers a guy tryin them on this site and he says there workin fine, so it cant be that bad, but now i wanna get a name brand one jus to be on the safe side.
