Yeah, they are new - and they are 60 bucks for both together

Is Yaoyaotiger on AliExpress a store known to Head-Fi'ers? a good shop to buy from or one to avoid?

I've bought several things from them and haven't had any issues yet.

Has anyone tried these from MaGaosi/HIiLisening? "With Tuning Filters 1BA With 1DD HIFI Bass Metal Shell Headset With Replaceable MMCX Wire". They are listed as the "S8" on MaGaosi/HLSX/HIiLisening's site. At least I think those are the S8. Their website is horrible. I bet @1clearhead either has them or will have them soon. http://www.hilisening.com

US $99.00 / piece

Sale Price: US $89.10

Yea, had these for quite a while now and they share a similar sound signature with the PRO HD, but the resolution is much better and significant on these. They should be called the "Magic Beans", since they look pretty much like a bean.

Thanks. I've added the store to my bookmarks. Do you know if they routinely mark the package value correctly for customs processing, or do they mark value low to save customers costs?

I can't answer that one.

Sorry, but I can't answer your question. I do know they're responsive to questions, so it wouldn't hurt to just ask them.

After doing a little searching and finding nothing that really leapt out at me, I went to the classifieds here and decided to buy Lurk's AKG N40 - it was the best deal I'd seen at roughly 1/2 off the actual MSRP and most of $100 off the best price I'd seen. Remember to hunt the classifieds here as they have produced most of the best deals I have gotten.

Good choice man! You won't be disappointed!

I've also used them a couple of times without any issues.

I always tell them how I prefer things to be and they do it that way. There's of course no guarantee but it has worked for me.

Yeah, $40 each or $60 for both.

The way I understand it they're for existing customers of VE only (I believe one needs to have minimum two purchases from them or something like that) so I don't think they'll be available on Aliexpress anytime soon.

The biggie is very tempting. I saw them on sale in VEclan's taobao store in 11.11. So I thought it would be on Ali soon.

Thanks both

Right now I have Penon Audio, Shenzhen Audio, NiceHCK, Yaoyaotiger and Joybuy on my list of trustworthy sellers. Seems like a pretty selection to cover most brands.

Maybe I will add Aoshida to that list if they are also good?

Ok, maybe they've changed the policy after all.

 

[BramblexD]

I recall Lee saying on his facebook he needs to prepare something for 11.11, so that might have been the launch of the biggies on taobao.
But for international fans to buy the bundle you currently need to email him personally and have him approve it, the instructions are on the VE facebook.
I should be getting mine in less than a week, pretty hyped.
