Best so far, I would say the HD650 deal for $340 w/ a $50 itunes gift card. I already own a pair and i'm tempted to buy another. lol.

 
I'll have to say that the tax from Sennheiser hurts the deal a little bit. Between that and not liking itunes bit rate, I'd sooner buy a $500 gift card from sound earphones, get a HD650 for $375 and overnight shipping...

I dunno! The $50 itunes gift card helps ease the tax quite a bit. hehe.

Just got done "chatting" with a live rep from Soundearphones and he stated that the largest amount they will currently sell for gift cards is $500. They will not make gift cards for custom amounts and they will not stack them. I have to say they move fast when it comes to changing their terms.

 
I don't think they changed their terms.

It's gone live people
 
Heir Audio has put their 4A custom on sale at 40% discount which works out to $419.00. The 8A is also on discount at 25% off which works out to $975. Considering all the other BF sales hate Canadian consumerism I'm impressed China based Heir Audio came up with such a nice sale that's open to absolutely everyone. Two thumbs up towards China for being so liberally minded and a big BOO goes out to the Yankee Red Hoard for keeping the sweet deals to themselves.

Yeah but.. $55 shipping fee + customs fee. I don't understand why they insist on charging such high rates instead of using epacket shipping or something. There's no way a set of ciems weighs over 4.4 kg.

That HD650 deal is so tempting.  Still debating whether I can justify spending that much right now though.  Has anyone seen them that low in the past?


not for brand spankin' new...way I look at it, I'll also sell the iTunes card for cash making it closer to $300 after tax for a new HD650

tax for me was $23. Like I said, sell the iTunes card for cash, takes care of tax plus gives you another 27 bucks in the pocket...

Have you tried selling your parents? It's important to keep your priorities straight!

Hmm, I ordered the AD900s from eBay and received this message:

Hmm, the free shipping bit kind of sounds like a marketing ploy to get people to order other stuff from them. Probably was their plan all along!
