Good earbuds?

I am confused. On the page you linked, it looks like you can buy a minimum of $10 at a time, for $6.84 a piece. If I google for them, the lowest (outside of ebay) that I can find them is $170.

On ebay they're like 4 bucks free shipping new.

O.o

Exactly, when I do artwork I plug them in and the world no longer exists.

Sony was a good choice; I have sony earbuds, which cost about $80; but that's in NZ bucks. More like $40 in the US. But yeah, they're good. I used to have Skullcandys, which were good, but broke 3 times in one year. So after getting them replaced each time, at the third I just gave up and bought some Sonys, which are quite strong.

I forgot to say how the Sony's went. They broke in about 2 days, which was quite a disappointment because they sounded great. I went on to get a pair of these: http://reviews.cnet.com/headphones/jvc- ... 339-2.html , and they are fantastic. The sound quality is nice, but even better the isolation is flawless. For 20 dollars this is the best money I've ever spent.

Oh, since something semi-relevant to this happened to me recently, I think I might as well post here...
While it's not a pair of earbuds, I have had fantasmagasmic success with the Logitech Premium Notebook Headset. It's pricey, but that link'll get you a refurbished pair for as little as $20. I first got a set of these bad boys a few years ago, and I've worn them down to the nubs. My current set finally gave out a few days ago, and I have a fresh one waiting for me at the post office right now. They're very comfortable, the mic is outstanding, etc. I very highly recommended these for voice chat, gaming, music, etc.

EDIT: I was shocked to see that there were no reviews, so I wrote one.

Heh, yeah, that phrase has always been in mind ever since a friend of mine bet me a dollar that I couldn't fit it into casual conversation. Suffice to say, I won the bet, and by using the phrase to refer to my ex-girlfriend's sister.

If you really want good quality, earbuds really aren't the way to go... What I did, was find some old Koss headphones, buy an adapter, and bam, I got 150 dollar headphones, for like, 20 dollars, including adapter.
