I'm looking at the prices compared to Walmart, and the difference is significant. Are these legit?

It also looks like none of the plugs are an American standard. Does anyone know why that is?

You get what you pay for. If you want to risk shorting out your device or starting a fire to save $1, that’s your decision.
