Fired off an email in the morning, requesting more info from him but, so far, no response. Such lack of communication is a bit worrying to me..

No emails. I wrote to him 4 days after the auction, they were already mailed and I got them about the time he replied, or the day after.

Omg why can't this guy ship internationally? Did you manage to invite him on here?

The verdict is in - Livewires win.

I suspect the only place to go from here are UE10 or UE11.

I am gonna bump this thread because international people can't seem to get the same deal from bobsound1..any alternatives? ecost dont ship internationally either.

Anyone know if bobsound1 still has any e500s left?

 

[Judge Crandall]

He doesn't have any items listed for sale right now.

 

[davidw89]

Did anyone manage to ask him why he didn't ship oversea?

 

[davidw89]

Its tough luck for int'l customers. Best option for them would be to grab a used one on the FS forum.

Not just americans, it 's to anyone inside the United States of America, even illegal aliens

Actually, I have found it a pain to ship outside of the continental USA. I've done it here on head-fi 3-4 times since August because we're a tighter community, but I don't on eBay. I've been ripped off a few times, not anymore.

Yeah, it can be iffy sometimes. I shipped a bass guitar to a guy in Canada one time, and it went missing for over a month... Freaked me out, but they eventually found it (after I complained enough for them to look into it.

) I've shipped a few expensive things internationally since then without any problems, but only in instances where I couldn't find any other buyers... Stresses me out too much to offer international shipping by default.

As for the seller with those E500s on eBay, he's great... I bought a set from the previous batch he was selling on Wednesday, and they arrived here on Friday. I'm definitely liking them so far... They sound a bit like my HD595s, but better (more detail, better bass.) It's going to take a while to get used to the sensation of having these things jammed in my ears, but I think I'll be able to adjust.
