How bad REALLY are the looks of KSC-75's?

Maybe a paint marker would work? instead of a paint brush...?

Surely you could at least paint the ear hook / mount part. But there would be some risk in painting the driver housing.

I would like to complain that it is absolutely freakin' impossible to find the KSC75 where I live. In Canada, the province Alberta, the city of Edmonton. I've tried all the music, electronics, and headphone stores I can think of. If anybody has some clue as what real store near me has the KSC75s, or what online retailer that uses Canadian currency, it would be much appreciated.

I mean, seriously, they're not merely "rare"--they're non-existent in my city. I can't even find any Canadian websites that sell them, and Amazon.com won't ship them to Canada. (Yes, I know there is a Koss website, too.)

Does anyone else have this problem or am I just crazy?

I went to at least a dozen stores in my area and only found one pair of KSC50s for $39 at a Media Play store.

Save yourself the hastle and get them at Amazon or J&R music world for ~$20.

kramer5150, look at what you quoted. Amazon.com won't ship them outside the US. I'm in Canada.

Pardon my inadequate grammar. I was looking for:

1. A brick-and-mortar store in my city that would sell them.

2. A Canadian online retailer that has the KSC75, and hopefully takes PayPal.

Obviously, I can just go to the Koss.com website, but I would prefer the two above options just because there's less hassle for me. I'm in university, I don't have a credit card, and so I'd have to bug someone to use theirs if I cannot find them in a store. I'm fairly certain that I've read posts on this message board from residents of other Canadian provinces, and they've had far less trouble finding the KSC75, so I'm a bit puzzled as to why such a major city as Edmonton doesn't seem to have them.

Whoohoooo! a fellow edmontonian headfier! verrrry cool. I thought I was the only one in this city that was into head-fi. Coincidentially I also ordered the ksc 75 a few days ago off the koss website. I think it cost around 33 bucks canadian after shipping, don't have a clue when they will get here though. What is your setup? I sold my grado's awhile back to fund some speakers, but getting back into head-fi with the ksc and a cmoy.

www.hotmp3gear.com is one of the few companies in canada that has a deal with Koss. They seem to be able to get cheaper prices than anywhere else.
