Why are so many people buying these if the reviews are soooo bad?

For me price was right as I only needed one for my ar build, they are very cheap and the smaller ones bend easily even if hit lightly. Hope this helps

the people posting the bad reviews DO NOT know how to use thin punches. Pins are tapered they go in from the left and come out from the right unless the manufacturer specifically specifies otherwise. If the piece you are working on is not properly supported, with room for the pin to move as it is being removed, you WILL damage the weakest link, the same goes if the punch is not in proper alignment wit the pin. In complete and brutal honesty, those posting the bad reviews seem to be the tools, not the punches.

Its all in how you want to perceive these forged steel pins-------they are not bad and if properly used should last a lifetime! Sometimes folks that write negative reviews have not actually used or read the merchandize they purchased and blame the maker of their goods they bought rather than themselves as being inept use as using the tool the correct way.

They are cheap, do the job if you don't abuse them, and if you want to just use them a few times it makes more sense then paying 4 times as much.

Yeah something is screwy here. It seems like price gouging somehow. I've seen them for $109 a 2-pack of the medium's elsewhere, but it's out of stock there too. I don't think anyone has these. People have been waiting months and still haven't received them.

Same feeling here. I have never seen a product with 93 5-star reviews and only 1 one negative, 1-star. Nothing in-between. Seriously??? Plus a number of people have mainly Ozeri reviews.Plus all these reviews are extremely frequent: one every few days. What are the chances???

when you click on the who is selling at top of this page, you find tons of sellers, they ALL CAN"T BE AUTHORIZED SELLERS so I went to Sennheiser website, authorized dealers, amazon, click on amazon and it just goes to the amazon website BUT NOT TO ANY AUTHORIZED SELLERS ON AMAZON, worthless help as you ALSO can't SEARCH the names of companies that are listed on sennheiser on amazon, worthlessat sennheiser website, if you click on some of the authorized sellers websites, search for these headphones, they are an average $50 more than the price on amazon, great

I always look at a reviewers profile. If they give a super amazing review, and they have only reviewed the 1 product, you can pretty safely assume the review is fake. Or they've only reviewed the 1 product plus a second other random product, (which seems to happen a lot to make them seem more "believeable") I assume those reviews are fake too. I think many companies pay people to write the reviews because it seems very common. I see alot of this on amazon especially with the health & beauty and cooking-type products. I wish there was a way to make people more aware of this.

If it sounds too good to be true, then it usually is, too good to be true; especially with this many bad reviews. I'm not taking a chance, most images this time of year are family & friends, both are much to valuable to risk loosing just to save a few dollars.

I've notice that, too. Looking at buying a receiver and all of them seem to have this rate. Is it perhaps sample size? Most of them seem to have less than 100. Sometimes I wonder if the negative stories are real. But in one case I trust the person and the review is real.

I depend a lot on the reviews here on Amazon. More and more, I am seeing bogus reviews being written. Not only do I want to see Amazon deleting these reviews, I want to see these liars punished for their attempts to mislead consumers. It is bad business for both the companies doing this, and it makes Amazon look careless for allowing it to continue.

This seems to be a forum to ask questions of the folks who bought the product, not the vendors. You may want to ask the sellers this question.

Easy, they're out of stock so one idiot had to charge an outrageous price for them. You should see them in the $5-10 range.

You should really look at the other comments. I made a mistake and didn't pay attention and ordered this piece of crap for a family member. Anytime an item has more 1 star ratings than 4 and 5 star combined, you should reconsider your purchase. Just my opinion.

Because they are nothing but junk. It will be nothing but a headache. My suggestion, return it for a refund if you can.

I am seriously surprised that people are still willing to shell out their hard earned cash for trash like this gate. How many bad reviews do you need to not buy it.

I wonder that too, looks like many of the reviews could be fake or people from the company. They only have 1 review and it happens to be this product....

Seriously??? WHY are you paying any attention whatsoever to a lot of these REJECTS who likely don't even research the product before buying it and have no idea how to use these things?

There are many people that write deceiving reviews. Some are being paid and some are getting free product. For instance a person that gives 5-star reviews for three like products from three different companies the same day or within a couple of days. Saying for each, "nothing worked until I tried this". Also a variety of different products. It can take up are lot of time to do this research. Check the other $100's of various products reviewed at the same time. I have written down the names of 14 people that reviewed the same items around the same time, saying about the same thing. But not giving info that is significant.
