If you look in the for sale forum here you may find someone selling them at your price points. It happens often.

How long have you had with the ety's? They may be a bit of a shock if you arent familiar with a lean sound.

It could be the music I listen to, but I find the HF5's have great bass texture and presence for what they are; transitioning back to the GR07's was an interesting experience, because everything sounded bloaty until I learned the sound again.

It sounds like you would be happy with the Klipsch Image X10, which can be had for about $120 or so. It's the only bassy and full sounding IEM I've heard, and it's also the most comfortable.

If you're willing to go eBay, TF10's are down to $120 new, without bidding for the moment. It's probably worth a try, despite concerns of fit and such. Also has fuller sound in terms of bass and treble than Ety's. Heck, I thought they'd probably never fit but it turns out they fit best with some (ridiculous and slightly deep fitting) dual flange tips. Isolation's enough to walk around with a smartphone powering it at 3/15 of the volume bar.
