Good mike but sound pick up yu have to keep very closae.
Price
This is the standard shure vocal mic - you see these everywhere because they are affordable and a great mic!

Packaging/appearance
The pop grilles were dented and the foam inserts were turning to powder.
Competitiveness
This is a great alternative to the sm57.
The mic it replaced way probably $400 - $500, and it was awful, by comparison.
It is the predecessor to the sm58 and both looks and sounds sort of like it.
