I've been gone a couple days...but this thread has grown so much since i last saw it. anyways, i feel somewhat lucky i guess, because i got something back from bill. i don't know if its even the same headphones that i sent him but, i have a pair of headphones. i'm done doing business with...

Quote:   From the looks of it, it does look like mine. But the reason why he removed the wood is totally unknown. And the worst part is that i've never listened to any other grado headphone so i can't compare its sound. Is it possible that this is just an SR-60 with a SR-225...

but i also told him anything extra was unnecessary. but i also thought i could get a woodied grado back.

well actually he said he would send me another package later. but the reason why i sent it to him in the first place, was so that he could mod them for me.  

Quote: yea...it's weird. i mean it sounds good, but the wood kept everything a lot smoother in my opinion.    

Quote: I wonder about that too...   Quote: lol  

haha yea sorry. When I first met Bill, I bought some MS-1's and sent them to his house to be woodied. But he messed up and busted the drivers. So he told me that he would give me his SR-225's that were already woodied. I accepted his offers and I was happy. Then a few months passed and I...

Just an update for everyone. The headphones arrived today. But I was a little confused because I had discussed mahogany cups with Bill. But he sent them back to be with the regular SR-225 shells. And when I first sent the headphones to Bill, they had these different wooden cups. He...

I got another PM Bill today. He told me that they were out in the mail and should arrive tomorrow at noon. But I haven't got the tracking # yet because he needed to go to a wedding.

well i'm happy that theres a part two. i will be able to inform you guys on any updates.

Quote: Thanks wje    

Quote:   Quote: Thanks guys! I really appreciate the thought of you even thinking about that! But Bill PM'd today and said that he would ship the headphones out tomorrow morning through overnight delivery because I will be going back to Japan on Sunday. And hopefully...

cabillas, could you tell me when you get them back in stock? i'd be very interested. thanks

gracias xaval

yes i read that but I was just wondering how much you sold them for.

GOD CABILLAS! those headphones are so nice. how much were you selling them for?

wje, the headphones that you have for sale are so nice. i wish i could buy them off of you but sadly I am going to japan this sunday for two months. they should sell pretty soon i think though, they're beautiful!

Quote: yea true. it's weird how a guy who spent so much time on head-fi suddenly disappears.  

wait so he's a lawyer but also a elementary school teacher? What?!? I don't get it.

Quote: Thanks James, I'll look into them.   I recently found this image on a japanese blog but I've never seen the PS1000's look so good.        

I keep on PMing Bila but he doesn't respond. He's probably never going to give me back my SR-225 headphones. And if Bila really decides to never return them to me I need new ones. But since being a broke college student...I'm looking for something cheaper. How does the SR-60 sound...

either way, everyone gave bill so many chances but he still didn't pull through. i just want my headphones back. i hear usps never takes longer then 9days so that tracking # was never a real one. why even bother doing that is my question.

those were my only real headphones (SR-225) and bill never sent them back to me....*sigh* stealing from a student is sad...unless usps has failed, but from the looks of it i'll never see them again.

how do you do that? can you ask usps to give you a fake tracking #?
