AirPods Pro fake or not?

I bought headphones on aliexpress and it turned out that these are airpods pro. Am I interested in the original or not, and does the seller have a license to sell the goods?

Well, first of all the price is more than suspicious. I can't tell from the picture of the case and AirPods but just the packaging itself doesn't look like Apple packaging as there are usually no gaps between the lid and the box. Also the plastic looks cheap.


As a rule of thumb, anything not purchased from an Apple authorized retailer has the potential to be a fake product, especially if it's being sold at a fraction of the MSRP.
