I personally would not buy expensive items like ie8s from Playtraders.  Too much of a risk.   Quote:

  Cool moulds by the way!! Quote:

Too true but £137 is a fair bit of money.  Had they been clearly described and I was aware of what state the IEMs would come in, then not a problem.  I would have still bought them.  But they didnt.  Its the principle of this matter that makes me cross.  A once excellent online service all round...

When buying IE8's I dont think you can ever consider buying off a playtrader.  As BennyBoy71 said to me earlier, Sennheisers are probably the most faked headphones in the World!!!   Quote:

Quote: Too true!!! The arses at Play.com wouldnt even let me have the ones I bought back.  I have had to settle for a refund.  Ive bought them now at Amazon.uk for a bit more money but hopefully I will have piece of mind that they are brand new in a box and come with all attachments...

  That is exactly how mine came.  They didnt even add the salt pad.  What a cheek!!!!!!!!! I have been told today that I am getting a refund. Desperate as I was to have these IEM's , I even asked for the ones I returned to be sent back.  However the woman from the INDIAN call center said that...

I really dont know what to do now.  I think it really sucks as it is clearly evident that I am not the only one who feels MUGGED.  Where is "the set of ear adapters (S/M/L) for gawd sakes.  I only got one pair.  I got no cleaning tool/bass adjuster either.  Am I going to miss out on my...

This is a post regarding the unboxed Sennheisers from play.com.  I contacted Sennheiser direct and this is what they said   Thank you for your email. Please be advised that Sennheiser are aware of the batch of headphones being sold on Play.com that you may have received. Sennheiser UK...

Just got an email from play saying that my replacement item is being processed and that current status is awaiting stock.  Hopefully that means they are going to get in sealed units.  May take a while but its better than a refund

Im thinking now that if they say they can only offer a refund, I may just ask for the headphones I originally bought to be sent back.  

Well I think its a bloody con !!! Perhaps had they made it clear that the headphones came with no accessories I probably still would have bought them.  But they didnt and I felt mislead hence why I sent them back.  My only concern now is that Play.com states they are no longer in stock and are...

Gdogg can you let me know how your arrive?   Quote:

Thx for the info soozieq!! Thats ok then, Play should have them soon.       Quote:

Quote: Heya !! Just a quick question? Did your Ie8's come boxed ? I bought some and they didnt.  They only came in carry case and were missing all accessories.

Quote: Spoke to play.com and the woman who I spoke to could not give me any guarantees that my replacement will come boxed etc.  I felt there was a slight language barrier as she didnt seem to understand my frustrations.  All she kept doing was regurgitating the same script along with "I...

I've just contacted play.com the am and I must say that their customer service is useless.  The lady i spoke to said that she could not guarantee that my replacement sennheiser ie8 will come boxed.  She went on to say she has no contact with the people that dispatch the items to put my request...

I guess you are right about the box thing.  I'm just paranoid about them being fake.  I have spent months and months trying to decide what headphones to get.  I even bought some Dre beats Tours of Play ( May I add that they were boxed and sealed) but sent them back because they were rubbish.  I...

Hmmm !!!!!!!!!!! that is very worrying.  Im going to phone them today and ensure that they post my Ie8 's in a sealed package. Headphones on their own are very dodgy i think.  They could be used or even fake.  I cant think Play.com would send out fake goods but when you pay £100 + for something...

Gutted and not happy !!! I received my IE8's that I bought from play.com and they came without packaging, ear tips, hooks, wax cleaner/bass adjuster.  Just headphones and case.  Now I will have to wait another week for replacements.  Not good at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi all !!!   I have just joined this forum.  Have just bought some Ie8s for £137 from play.com.  I waiting for them to arrive.  I cant wait to listen to the .  Hope they are good!!
