Default Moog springs with no label, fake?

Hello, I ordered a set of Moog springs from Amazon. They came in an unlabeled box with a photocopy paper with instructions with no Moog logo or anything anywhere. First time ordering Moog springs. Is this normal, or did I get ripped off with some fake sh*t?

It's not the way they're usually packaged, but that doesn't really tell you they're not what they're supposed to be.
But being in a moog box wouldn't really guarantee that they're moog springs either. There's a bit to be said for dealing with reputable outlets.
They might be what they're supposed to be. Hopefully you didn't pay too much.

Could be that the box was damaged at the warehouse. Mine came in a moog box (824's) but the box was toast by the time it got to my door.

Measure the free standing spring height and compare that to what it should be.
