  1. Group pressure never scared me


    I've bought these:
    as my brother's Xmas gift, I'm sick of seeing him struggle with crappy earphones.


  2. Great, that'll be the most random PM he's received.

    Regarding headphones, I'm looking at either the HD-205 II or HD-207 post Christmas, tried some HD-205 on in a shop and they sounded great.


  3. The gifts dad's gonna get are better.

    I need new earphones.
  4. The 205 are killers, Tim! But 49'50€ was a bit over the top for my lil bro


  5. They're significantly cheaper over here. £31.50 on Amazon when they were around £55 in the high street shop. Probably will go for the 205, since I've used them. The 207 could be better or worse...
  6. I really can't understand why the fuck EVERYTHING is miles cheaper over Amazon. And I mean:



    I don't understand it. New articles are sometimes even cheaper than used ones over eBay or second hand stores. It's unreal.
  7. Bigger market=Lower prices
  8. Simple. Amazon.

    It's that good, it's beyond words.

    I understand the basic market laws, thank you so much. It's just that Amazon is sometimes EXCESIVELY cheaper than it should be. I often wonder if the articles have some secret fault or damage (although I've bought loads of things from Amazon.com, .uk and now .es and everything was mint and I was utterly satisfied), because they're much much cheaper than they should.
  10. Sergio, could you repost the link to your cover of Run? I want to listen to it again.

    They don't have a bigger market, they have a massive market, they make that much money they can afford not to sell at RRP. They have numerous international websites, own various other businesses (LoveFilm for example), sell unbelievable amounts of merchandise etc.

    2010 revenue? $34 billion...

    I somehow don't think it matters if they undervalue an item or two. Some stuff is actually more expensive on Amazon, in demand stuff, such as video games, tend to be only £0.01 - £0.05 cheaper than competitors.

    EDIT: You can tell Google owns YouTube...
  12. Just got home from Christmas shopping
