Did I just waste $360?

I made a mistake and had my wife order these thinking I confirmed with Cyba that they were his.

I guess only thing I can do now is wait for them to show up and see how the quality is.

Anyone here ever try these?

How much you wanna bet that the manufacturer Cyba is using has just started trying to sell these themselves and cut out Cyba?

Typical Chinese attitude and methods....

If they suck, just return them or chargeback...

Phil, can't help it but these looks like Cyba to me. I am sure Cyba buys them somewhere as well.

Exactly what I was thinking. Just hope the quality is what everyone has reported on the Cyba tips. If the quality isn't there then the $100+ savings wasn't worth it.
But on the flip side...if they are from the same manufacturer, then I just scored!
Guess I'll find out.

Thanks (H). Once I get them we can compare them to yours.

I have Cyba's carbon tips and they do look very very similar (if not exact).

Agreed. They look identical to mine - at least from the pictures.

Exactly...I'll post to let everyone know. Heck, if they're the same and $75 less (without the sale)... then I'm sure others would be interested in knowing about them.
