Popping When Resuming Audio
It could very well be the buffering doing it, excellent point. I haven't experienced it with any traditional media players (WMP/Winamp). I think I'll send them an email to see if they've heard of any similar issues.- Hackez

Never, ever, buy headphones off of ebay.
As others have said there's nothing inherently wrong with eBay. Out of six or seven headphone purchases through eBay only one was defective and the seller was very understanding and I eventually ended up with a full refund. With regards to what PayPal is asking you to do, I would contact...- Hackez
