If you like bass MEElectronics M11+ can be had for $50 shipped. They are on sale. Use coupon code 25%_OFF and shipping_coupon for $2.95 shipping. I really enjoy these.
 
That being said. Panasonic RP-HJE900 is worth the extra $30 IMHO.

That's where the search engine becomes your friend.  Check out all the IEM's that have your attention.  I've found many a smoking hot deal via the search engine.  Here's a couple of examples: IE6 for $50.00 or about a third of full retail.  Here's an IE7 for $99.00.  A few dollars more than your stated budget of $80.00 but about a third of the price of retail new of $300.00.  I'm not trying to get you to buy Sennheiser but trying to encourage you to check out the search function to meet your goal of "Best under $80.00 IEM."  Please write that you're not locked into paying full retail as best doesn't mean paying full retail unless you're a government agency.
 
Currently breaking in my retail $450.00 IE8's that I picked up for a steal, refurbished for $186.00, Priority Mail shipping included.  The trick?  The trick is learning and knowing how to shop and not lose sight of the fact that the search engine is your shopping friend.  Give it a try as ya got nothing to lose and everything to gain; your "Best under $80.00 IEM."  And it never hurts to spend a few dollars more as budgets are meant to be added to and broken.
 
Yeah baby!

I don't have the super.fi 5 pro's though a seller is selling the sf 5 pro's for $69 and I emailed 2 people who purchased them and only1  replied but he said they're in great condition.

Thanks!

Sorry.  Not a clue.  I've heard good things about the IE7's but got nothing to share regarding the hje900's other than an Amazon.com link with three reviews attached.

rain or m11 are your best bets.

If you have a player with a good EQ, I would say the Etymotic Mc5, as it already sounds natural, and can be easily tweaked to many tastes. Also has some of the best isolation around.

Sorry forgot to mention where, it's on eBay.

I saw people selling s4 for 40-50++ usd per set on ebay.Are those real or could they be  fake?Currently I am interested in getting s4 as my m50 are too big to carry around.Hope you guys could enlighten me.Thanks.

Rockford-Fosgate Punch Plugs are a great option, I haven't heard any better in this price category.
