Got an e-mail yesterday that the package has been shipped, UPS Express being the shipping method. Will let you know how long it will take to arrive (as this has been one of my questions in this thread). I e-mailed my mobile phone number at 15 December 2010 so I'll set that as the ''purchase date''.

forgive my stupid question because I'm still a noob and I have no exp with any DAP
is it worth to get a HM-601 compare to a clip+
I want to buy a music player for a long time and don't plan to change it each year
and if I buy it and sell the re-zero without using it how much I could get because I hate in-ears and want to get a portable headphone
please answer me quickly the deadline is coming and I don't know if it is still a good deal any more :-s

from what I listen while HM-602 driving Senn HD800... I think HM-601 would outclass Clip+...
I never hear Clip+. But I used to own Fuze (sold already) and I heard Clip. Fuze is more elegant sounding than Clip, though still not-warm enough, while Clip more raw and dynamic and thus sounds more powerful than Fuze. HM-602 has enough power to drive HD800 but do it elegantly... So, HM-602 (supposed the 601 as well) sounds classy than other DAPs (except HM-801) that I ever hear...

The package arrived about 10 minutes ago. Unfortunately, I had to pay 23.11 EUR at the door in order to receive it (Europe; Holland; shipped from Hongkong)

When I e-mailed Head-Direct about my HM601 they sent me this link for download (manual):
http://down.head-direct.com/manual.pdf
It is the HM 801 but I guess the same applies for the HM 601...

AC Adapter has died after 1 charge. o.O
I'll e-mail Head-Direct what to do now. I'm definetely not sending it back on my own expense.

Sorry i'm a noob at making online purchases such as these.
 
Can someone tell me the procedure of how things should happen after i place my order online?
I placed my order for this combo on 31st Dec 2010 and immediately i received an email from paypal that my payment of USD$259+$20 has been sent to the seller.
 
So then am i supposed to receive a confirmation email from head-direct or an email asking for my mobile number or telling me my delivery status? Or do i just wait for the package to be delivered to my home address?
 
thanks in advance

For the couple/three things I've bought from them in the past, if you don't include a phone number with the order, you get a request for it when the item is ready to ship.  I haven't received much in the way of notification of shipping or projected arrival dates, but they tend to be surprisingly short given that a trip from China to the USA has been involved.

Confirm (in my case)

My package to Europe: Finland did not get caught by taxes or customs. The package was marked as 20€ mp3 and gift. So i wouldn't say its Head-Directs fault if it gets caught by customs or tax-hits.

with C.O.D. I did not know what this is. I googled it and it says Cash On Delivery, but it does not make sense at all. Either way the guy told me straight away to pay for the package in order to receive it, so obviously I did that. I mean, it's not the first time I have to pay for stuff like this, but then usually it comes from America and not from China (never had it when I ordered stuff from China).
 
These are two out of three papers I received (the other one is about the li-on battery I believe). 
 

 
It says that the price of the MP3 player is $30. 
 

Niet belastbaar = Not taxable 
Sales Tax = 13.11 EUR
Voorschot provisie = Advance fee (translated directly from English to Dutch) =10 EUR
Totale kosten = Total costs
 
Not taxable vs the rest does not make sense at all but obviously I did not see it before I got the package, so no chance to ask the delivery person.

Customer services said I did have to send it back, which also does not make sense to me. Like what is the value of the charger anyway, compared to shipping costs.. But customer services did not say where I have to sent it and if I can get a refund for shipping so I e-mailed them about that. They then e-mailed me that they wanted a copy of my payment so that they could check whether it is ''under guarantee'' or not. I sent them the same day the documents as posted above (+ creditcard transaction for this purchase). I find that pretty ridiculous for such an issue but maybe that's just me. I believe that was two or three days ago and they didn't get back at me yet (still not knowing which adress to sent too btw).
