That's not true... there is a scourge of chinese knock off Bones bearings on ebay [VIDEO]. If OP is buying them from a legit site like Tactics then they're probably safe, but don't think for a moment that there aren't knockoffs out there...

100% no way is bones swiss $20, like in etsy. These bearings are probably the most copied skate parts in the world. [LINK] Edit: Here is the bones manager talking about how it's impossible for bones swiss to be sold for $20 because that's lower than what it costs them to make the bearings. [VIDEO]

Where did you buy them? Amazon/ebay/wish? If not from a skateshop (online or right around the corner doesnt matter.) Its probably fake stuff.... ​ [VIDEO] Statement from bones.
