Nowhere...
You can only buy them new direct as far as I know... and still I wouldn't recommend...
 
My third pair ...
 

 
Construction sucks... worst constructed pair of headphones I've had... They sound great, their build sucks! I think I'll just use superglue and that's it!

Wow ok thanks for the reply. I think I'll go with the M and D MH40s.

I own the H118 and H128 and never had any problems.

Same here.  The H128 is particularly sturdy.

Are you guys actually using them every day?
Ultrasone, Beyers, thoser are sturdy... these plastic things... meh. Sorry but after three pairs, totally disagree! (and i baby all my headphones which is the most surprising aspect...)

Your experience seems atypical and decidedly peculiar.  As the H118 is nonmetallic, I take extra care not to stress the plastic hinges when folding it inward.  As far as the H128, I always detach the cord and place the headphones back in their storage case whenever they’re not in use.  I find the ADL H128 to be just as exemplary as every Alpha Design Lab and Furutech product I’ve owned.  The ADL H128 never leaves the house, but I frequently take the H118 with me on the road.  The sound of the ADL H128 paired with the demanding Lotoo Paw Gold is transcendent to my ears.   I use both headphones regularly and they’re performing, as well as looking, as good as new.

I'm curious, how do you differentiate the two as far as use?  I've found the H118 is particularly suited for watching movies... or rather, listening.

I like the lack of bombast and harshness. I think the 128 might be a touch more refined but the 118 might be the more natural of the two, where everything integrates a little better. The 128 brings up the bass a bit.  I use both for music
