Did lendmeurears @ ebay increase the price of the GR07s from $159 to $195 USD suddenly. I was about to purchase these from them. But I am not sure if I should wait for the price to come back to the origial price or not. Does anyone have any idea? There is another seller who is selling them for $159 though. But they are not authorized retailers.

According to their Facebook page, that is to be the new price of the GR07, quote in line with the revised pricing from Vsonic unquote.

Wow, just picked up a pair of these last week, guess I lucked out.  Had no idea there was an impending increase.

So the GR01 is cheaper now? 
 
Nvm, the GR01 is now $208, glad i bought mine a couple weeks ago for $183.
 
Im shocked to see such a price increase. I suddenly see Vsonic's sales dropping.

Is BigBargainOnline on ebay a legit Vsonic seller? They still have them for $159 USD.

Wait, what? What is the reason for the price change? That takes it from being on the fence to probably not buying a pair, at least not right now.

Same thing here. I just happened to get one, and next day I hear the price increase... really lucked out on this one. Could the price increase be due to an increase in warranty period? (from 1 to 2 years, that's what I've been hearing anyway)

I find it surprising that a company would raise prices. I know it happens but it's very rare unless you are talking about having a cheaper price for pre-sale then increasing it. It's a really bad marketing move. I doubt Vsonic was losing money at $169. All of a sudden they feel they need to make $30 more profit?

It just makes it hard to recommend them now at a higher price. The GR01 was already the most expensive TWFK based BA, besides the CK10. The R50, B2, and DBA02 were already cheaper. $208 for the GR01 is just high.

Hmmm. I think I need to find something else for me now. 

For about ~150-160 max.

I think it was in the MK2 thread that vsonic was going to increase the price as well as change the warranty to 2years.

So, this is why I noticed GRO1's price go up in my ebay watch list from $176 to $196 last week. I'm not sure lifting GRO7 MK2 price is going to help sales. Luckily I bought mine for $151 from a excellent seller who suddenly stopped selling them internationaly due to their popularity in-store.

I don't know if I could call GRO7 worth $195. It's lendmeurears who will suffer, people will find them elsewhere at their original price before stock runs out.

It is still listed as having 1 year warranty only @ lendmeurears on ebay.

Why not?   There are few IEMs under $200 as good as the GR07.   
 
 
But you do have point...the TF10  now looks to be a better bargain.  However, if you add a cable to the TF10 you will spend around $200 or more anyway.  If you can get them for the Black Friday price of $99 they are the best bang for the buck IEM you can buy.

The store that sell them on Amazon always had them for $179.  If they raise the price to $220 or so then...ouch.
