A few years ago I bought some the same way, those actually came vacuum wrapped onto a retail hang package for the same price. I don't really care one way or the other.

They're probably all made in the same place. They didn't have the same material as the original Avid but they're semi-metallic and they work well wet or dry, last a long time and don't wreck the rotor so I don't know what else you could ask.
