    It costs £7.99, but delivery is another £7.99 (afaik) to Ireland. Meaning that it costs £16 for these, which is about €18.50/€19 (depending on how my MasterCard handles the exchange rate).

    Is it worth it? I'm looking for them for an MP3 player that I use doing a lot of running so it is important that they don't fall out. If anyone has every had these, could they tell me whether they are any good or not?

    Thanks,
    Tim.

    postage is £2.99, so it'd be £10.98 (€13) can be bought for only a couple of quid more off HMV and you're not being put on the spot to buy like with boffer

    never tried them, but they look like very average earphones with the swarovski crystals in them as a selling gimmick

    I agree, think those earphones are designed to look good in da clubz:p ,there don't appear to be any reviews online either.

    As you need it for jogging etc, maybe something like this would be an option

    I thought it was £2.99 + a £5 courier surcharge because it's being sent to Ireland. I don't whether they'd get a courier to deliver earphones though, the post would do.

    I probably won't get them as they don't look that great.

    Sxt, those earphones look good. I might consider getting them.
