Default If you need some ear buds....

I'm not affiliated with the seller, but bought 3 pair of these the last time they were on sale. At $5.99, they have better sound quality than some I've paid as much as 50 bucks. I'm still on my first pair which speaks to their durability.

I have a pair of Audioque buds that are amazing for the price (24.99 shipped).

But, I bought 2 pair of these to compare just now. Thanks for the link.

I gave up trying to buy them, stupid playpal wouldn't let me use the card I want.
I have two cards loaded and it doesn't let me select between the two. I give up, I will just keep using the factory iphone ones.

Thanks for the link. I bought 3. That should last me a year or so until I break all of them...

Default Re: If you need some ear buds....

How long did it take you guys to actually get your package? I ordered on 8/30 and it's now 9/06. I received an order confirmation right away, was billed the next day, and haven't received a shipping confirmation or anything else. I realize there was a holiday in there, but the website says they usually ship within one business day. Pretty poor service.

It takes awhile for these guys to ship. I ordered an iPhone speaker dock on 8/28 and got shipping confirmation yesterday.

My earphones got here in about 7-10 working days. Not too bad for $6 ea and free shipping. Very nice product to boot.
