The states in which they charge tax account for 78% of the population of the US.  So yeah, that's pretty much everywhere.

It's $2 more than the lowest price ever on Amazon and you're waiting for a better deal?

I guess you are right. But after spending some time online hunting for deals, i realized there is always a better deal round the corner. Also, for some reason, i didn't want to spend $300 on those headphones, and i am in no rush. 
 
Having said that, i dont think this model gets that many deals, so this is probably a good deal if someone is keen on getting it.

Yeah, more exotic / less popular brand are usually pretty stagnant in price or has a strict Minimum Advertised Price.

TIL "everywhere" is now defined by % of population.  Have any more straws to grasp at?
 
 
Needless to say, any intelligent consumer takes taxes into consideration when making a purchase.

Hey, you forgot Michigan, which joins the ranks of state sales tax paying citizenry starting next week. That should tip it past the 80 % mark. So that takes it from "practically everyone as far as the eye can see" to "basically every single Joe and their cats and dogs from New York to LA." (By the way, I'm looking at all you past offenders of evasion of our state use tax. jk :p )

MEE audio A151 Gen2 for $24.99 ]w/Free Shipping really $27.94...code is NEWA151
http://www.meelec.com/Armature_Series_s/351.htm

Edit:
So...when I typed in my zip code and hit the 'get shipping options' and even the 'recalculate' button on their web site the shipping charges stayed at $0.00. However, the ugly shipping troll lives in the Checkout page...bad web design. Cheapest shipping I could choose was $2.95 making the total cost $27.94...still a bargain based on the reviews (http://www.head-fi.org/products/meelectronics-a151p-2nd-generation/reviews).

I still have and listen to my A151s; think they were $30 -- a solid value to this day for me. Based on the reviews, I'm expecting an even better experience with the Gen2's.

For those of you that had/have the A151 Gen1...here's a FR comparison chart from their site

Also liked the first A151, my teen daughter likes them as well. At the offering price, will make a good holiday present. Ordered.

I can't get any lower than $44.99 even after the code.  Says 
  1. Coupon code " NEWA151" is not valid.  What?


Remove the space at the beginning.

" NEWA151"
^ You have a space there.
