It's pretty hard to find a legit Xiaomi piston seller but I bought a set a couple months ago from this company and they were legit so I ordered another 4 pairs at this price.

You need a paypal account to order easily. My first order I used their regular checkout and it took 5 or 6 emails to get everything straightened out. With paypal you login and click a button and they take care of the address and everything.
Their free air mail takes 4 to 5 weeks to get here and you have to sign for it so that adds a couple more days to delivery if you're not around to sign, but they're definitely worth the hassle. I personally think these ear buds are better than any $100 set I've owned and I buy a lot of earbuds.

Do they have a blue tooth version? I browsed really quick and didn't see one. I can look again later too. I wear mine while running and hate a cord version, I bought a blue tooth running set a few weeks back but the sound quality is horrible.

No Bluetooth and they have short cables. If I plug them in I can run the cable down back of shirt then plug into phone and I've got about 8" left over. My guess is because they're meant for sales inside China so even the largest ear tips were too small so I put some on from a set of JBL ear buds and work great.
They'd be great for running with the open port design they don't act like ear plugs. I don't know how sound can get through the tiny port but you can carry on a conversation with them in your ears so you should be able to hear traffic.
I guess the only thing that bothers me the wires from the switch to ear buds isn't Kevlar covered so it tangles in my pocket
