Skullcandy...

Koss has lifetime warranty.  How about trying the ksc75 or portapros?  Maybe it's not your fault that you're breaking your headphones, and it's skullcandy's fault.  Imo, lifetime warranty should not be the reason to buy junk that is expensive.

Yup, I can tell you for a fact that the mark-up on SC products is pretty large.

I have ALOT of experience w/ Skullcandy. Instead of simply telling you to buy "better" headphones, here's a real answer to your question: I suggest the skullcrushers. IMO they're the most use full Skullcandy product (very good noise isolation), the bass boost is a neat feature, and the resell factor is pretty decent (especially if you demo the "bass boost" feature, it gets them every time :p). I don't need to tell you how the sound quality is, I'm sure you know what to expect by know. But the 'crushers have alot more pros than other Skullcandy cans. Anyways, hope that helps.

Buy the ones which sell for most and then sell them on ebay and then get a pair of AD700s or M-50s

look into HD25-1 they can be had for 160 as stock B from sonic sense (Authorzied Sennheiser dealer) as well as for 150 from Audtio topica (also authorized dealer), HD25-1 are considered to be very robust headphones. They are simple in design and are very well made, and will outlast and SC headphones. (I tried some heshes and skull crushers and both felt like they gonna break when put on, HD25-1  feel like I can kill some one with them and then put them on and walk away...every one jokes about useing the cable for strangleing ppl...)

What are some of them? And what are the best headphones from them? I think I'll buy some Skullcrushers because they're like 30 bucks off, use em till I break em, and then send them back and see if they forget about the sale and give me full 100 dollar credit back. Then get some new headphones and sell them, then get some real headphones. Skullcandies headphones may be crap but they do have some quality customer service. They just randomly gave me like 10 bucks store credit for no reason.



 I had Skullcrusher for about 8 monthd before I broke them. They're just okay for the money..you can get a lot better headphones with better overall sound quality. The bass control is nice but it drowns out the mids and highs. Save your money and do some research. Sennheiser, Grado, Audio-Technica, and Shure are known for producing cans with extremely clear and strong sound quality.

IMHO you should buy the most demanded headphone, and the one that will sell for the most. Order it, do not open it but just sell it. Use the money you have made to get a much better sounding headphone

Honestly who pays for music these days? High opportunity costs if you know what I mean.
