i bought my mic from crazyfrog, not expecting that great of a mic due to the price. it shipped very fast, and i recieved it in perfect condition. it works just as well as, if not better than, my mic that came with an iphone. it works great with my ipod touch 2nd generation mc model. i would strongly advise anyone to buy this who's looking for a high quality mic at a low price. don't let those bad reviews scare you!! i don't know about the quality from other sellers, but crazyfrog delivered mine in perfect condition. great buy.
