I think I got a fake Moto bluetooth

I just purchased a Motorola Bluetooth from ebay and after receiving the package, I have a feeling that it's fake. The bluetooth headset itself is almost believable, except something bothers me, perhaps it is something minute and I am reading too much into it.

The arched "M" insignia which is placed in a silver circle on the phone is not symmetrical to the rest of the device. It's clearly crooked. I've never seen any bluetooth device come with crooked features, especially not a crooked logo. The package itself looks believable too, but still, I have a feeling.

I don't know what to do now. I don't think the guy offers refunds, but nowhere in the listing did he say it was a Motorola replica or an OEM device. What should I do?

Looking from that photo, it looks ok. Picture quality isn't that good so can't give a proper conclusion on this.

And plus if the bluetooth headset works I'd say theres nothing to worry about

Yeah, sorry about the picture...it looks better in the picture than it does IRL. But...I'll just roll with it. We'll see how it goes. Thanks for your input.

most likely it is fake. seems to be alot of fake motorola bluetooth headsets on ebay compared to other manufacturers anyway.

I personally advise reporting to ebay/paypal. perhaps contacting motorola and see if they can push ebay to stop him/her trading on ebay. if its a business seller, would also recommend speaking with trading standards
