UE is dumping their stuff(yeah I know this word is only used when international trade is involved but I can't seem to find a better word). They make money on customs and they already have a huge sum of money(Logitech) and they're dumping universals on the market. 
 
Look at amazon triple fi, do you think that could happen without Logitech behind their back funding all that loss (or near zero margin)? 

 
 
Pretty sure they are making tons of money the amazon $95 TF10 a pop price, but if people are willing to pay more..... why not.
 
I mean how much money do you think the materials cost to make a TF10? I would be shocked if it is over $20 a pop.

Hi!
 
There're some shops in Finland, which sell AKG K 518 LE for around 30 € = 40 $. IMO that's quite cheap, actually it's such a steal that it makes me wonder if they are fakes or not. So, are there fake K518 in the market that i should beware of?

Well it does have 3 BA drivers, so that may make it more costly to produce. But pretty much after that the rest of the stuff is of relatively low cost.

MEE one day sale, 12 hours left: 20% off M21/M21P with code MEE_M21 don't miss the great deal on a great new product!

 
Link to the M21. Quite a good deal for those who like heavy but not overwhelming bass - for what it's worth I find the M21 more to my liking than the pricier M31 and M11+ models.

k518 is crap.  bass is very boomy and soft, no texture at all,  impact is very lil, bass decay is the longest i ever heard
you can only hear the vocal and bass nothing else.

Meelec sale, on the M21, use code MEE_M21 for 20% off on both the M21 and the M21P.
 
These puppies are good, better IMHO than the Meelec M9, so don't miss the sale!
 
The sale only has some hours left. Sorry, but I discovered it too late in Facebook. Better late than never, anyway

Thanks for the warning, Hero Kid. I did a quick pass to check if the deal was already published and I missed ljokerl message. And as I told, the deal was about to expire. I just found it and wanted to share. A pity I did too late.
 
Sorry
