I think a few people said you can get the 580's on ebay for $129 from hififorless.com

580's are usually going for $150. do an internet search.

forget about eBay - those fools are paying MORE than lowest internet prices.

listening to Shannon - "Give Me Tonight". Grado SR80's: tight bass, bright highs, clear mids.

The cheapest I can still find them for is $150, I've searched everywhere

 

[bthorny]

I would really like to find them for cheaper than $150 if possible.
That would be

Hififorless(which doesn't even list senn cans on their site) is selling 580's and 590's now for buyitnow $150 on ebay.

And as to the "Ebay is now more than retail" thing - it was, but now it has stabilized, in addition to starting to define, at the after-market price to the retail price. Headphones are a small market, and easy to overlook/not know a good price for, which is why I was able to get the DT770's for $80. Many have anecdotes of great deals off ebay, but the majority on ebay is usually a little under retail, just like retail is usually a little under MSRP. It has become, for all intensive purposes, the "online mall" that everyone envisioned becoming the standard 4-8 years ago, and that failed utterly at the time. You will probably find many more permanent reseller items, at near-retail prices on ebay now than small incidentals that people found in their closets.

Have to agree with the previous comment. Ebay is more of a store these days: it seems like a price is established for an item, and all the auctions go to that price. Supply/demand.

Amazing deals are getting harder and harder to find. . .

I got mine from hififorless for $150, well worth the price. If you can find it for less, awesome! Just remember to report it to head-fi or you're in for a flogging

I ended up getting the 590's factory refurbed from ubid for 127 shipped.

which I think is a pretty sweet price.
Espically considering they come with a one yearfactory warranty, Schweet. I can't wait to hear them.
