So i was looking to buy some akg earbuds that come with the phones and on samsungs page they are $99.99 https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/mobile-accessories/phones/samsung-earphones-tuned-by-akg--gray-eo-ig955bsegus/.

But then i looked around and they were $12 on walmart https://www.walmart.com/ip/Samsung-Earphones-by-AKG-For-Galaxy-S8-S8-Plus-W-Extra-Ear-Gels-Grey-Bulk/847578010?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=326&adid=22222222228090017901&wmlspartner=wmtlabs&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=202818944099&wl4=pla-330136033673&wl5=9011521&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=111830520&wl11=online&wl12=847578010&wl13=&veh=sem

Are they the same or different?
 
Solution
Since they are being sold through Walmart but not by Walmart they might well be fake. It's also possible that they are what is called "grey good". That means they are imported directly from China and sold at a much reduced price. If they are discontinued or about to be they could be a sellout deal.
If you click on either seller you will see a phone number. Worth a call to save that much.
