    That is what i am hoping :)
    For that price. Also the fact that other stores are selling them for over €20.

    Unboxing they look decently packaged - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj9wUOnKB7g

    The lowest price that they were on Amazon was $20 and the average was $38

    and the reviews are not the worst https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/B01LY8QAEO

    I am not expecting anything great from them at all, but i will be looking forward to receiving them :)

    Mine were dispatched at 02:48AM this morning so hopefully they will not take as long as they said on the eBay listing.

    Bought a pair there for the kids , €4.88 , bit worried it says choice of 3 colours but doesnt give you choice to choose , so might end up with brown or red rather than the desired black.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,782 ✭✭✭pissed


    Thanks OP, just bought a set now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 626 ✭✭✭shardylan


    Just got mine (mine are black /red as in pic) and very happy thanks op.Havent tried them out yet but they come in a fancy hard case and look really excellent quality so for €6(I paid higher price ) total bargain

    They are also back in stock with seller now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,211 ✭✭✭✭Suckit


    Postman was knocking on my door at 6:45AM.. I could not peel myself up (it was during snooze time between alarms).
    I thought it might be a wireless repeater that i ordered, i guess it may have been them.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,211 ✭✭✭✭Suckit


    I collected mine from the post depot.
    Exact same as the video above. I am happy. I am charging them now so i have not tried them, but i will be keeping the case, it is decent and will be good to have.
    One hard case.
    Two cables, one male to male 3.5mm audio cable and a micro USB charging cable.
    Phone ring-stand thing.
    Red and Black headphones.
    Instruction manual.

    Edited.
    Ridiculously good for the price. The extras alone would be a much higher price in a B&M and probably many online stores.

    I ran a few tests, i was not expecting much but they did quite well, very well in fact.
    I do find them a bit muffled, but nothing worst than an average pair between €20 - €30.

    I ran these tests and got decent results.

    I am aware there are plenty of other things to take into consideration, but using my phone and these €6.50 (€5) headphones, the results were excellent for the price and good depending on how much higher you go.

    Can the 3.5mm cable be used on the headphones when the battery is dead?

    Yes, and the cable that comes with it is a fairly decent length.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 963 ✭✭✭chavezychavez


    Available under here again for approx €6.43


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,556 ✭✭✭sioda


    Dammit thanks BA another random purchase thanks op 😁


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,580 ✭✭✭✭Riesen_Meal


    Hmm

    My order seemed to have morphed from Bluetooth headphones to a USB 2.0 cable overnight...

    I might have to get onto them for a refund if so...

    Mine too. The €4.93 link. I am going to contact them now.

    The headphones from the original €6.58 link arrived yesterday.

    Edited.

    When i view order details, it still says the headphones.

    Apparently the seller has already been talking to some people and assured them that they are the headphones.

    180 days to get a refund from paypal anyway.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,170 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    My order has also been changed to a USB cable. When did the people who already got theirs place their order?

    Not confident now, but we'll see.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,322 ✭✭✭sham69


    i ordered these a couple of days ago.
    Got an email from seller to say he had no stock left and would issue a refund (which he did)
    I spotted another ad he had with the same headphones slightly more expensive.
    I asked him could I get these, he said I would have to reorder as he had already issued the refund.
    I think the new ad had them at $6 or something like that.
    I went back on to order them and the price had changed to 14 euro.
    that was that...
    Raging I missed the original price, they look decent and would have been ideal for the kids.
    Best of luck those who got them.

    I ordered mine 14th Jan and they arrived 2 weeks later .Ordered 2nd pair and when dispatched it says usb cable but seller said it was a mistake .i think it’s fine but Paypal will refund if incorrect so don’t worry

    Same as this.
    I got the first pair (from the €6.58 link), waiting for the 2nd pair (€4.93) that have changed to a USB cable in the description.
    I got this message from the seller this morning.
    Dear friend ,
    We are sorry for making you confused .
    You did ordered a headphones ,and we shipped it to you .
    But after that ,we found the headphones was out of stock ,so we upload another item to the same listing .
    That is why you can see it .
    Please don't worry, you will get a wireless headphones .
    Hope you can understand .

    Before the headphones were in the listing it was a rechargeable battery and people received that, so it is something that seller does. Maybe they find it easier to change the description than adding a new one.

    Maybe they don’t get charged by eBay for changing the listing rather than creating a new one ?

    Possibly, i don't know. Ebay probably aware though, as i am sure many people have contacted them to ask what's going on :D.

    I am willing to wait as i reckon it shouldn't be too hard to get a refund if there was something wrong with them, even if they do not arrive until March..

    I’m just waiting on 2 pairs for siblings (ordered when the link was first posted - thanks again Suckit) :)

    How did everyone receive theirs? Via courier or post? I tracked my order via the NL post international track and trace system, and it stated that the package arrived in Ireland on 27/01/18..... no sight nor sign since....... just wondering who I should I email to follow up

    Mine arrived by normal post, i missed the postman and had to collect it from post depot.
    They may be checking it for customs value. If they are, you will receive an email or text this week asking you for a copy of your receipt and possibly bank statement.

    Same story here. Arrived in the country on the 27th,no delivery yet. Hopefully they're not looking for printed receipts, don't have a printer and it's a pain /expense to get to an Internet cafe!

    They usually just ask you to email it to them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 433 ✭✭Danny2580


    Missed these, great bargain, wonder will any become available again soon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,211 ✭✭✭✭Suckit


    The tracking on my €4.93 pair just appeared and it says that they arrived on the 27th. I have them.

    I just assumed it was the €6.58 pair that had arrived as i ordered them first. It seems that they are the ones still in transit, the tracking has not been activated yet, so i assume that they have not hit the NL post centre yet.

    I am guessing that everybody else who received them, received the €4.93 pair (the ones that the listing changed to a USB cable).

    Mine arrived and everything seems fine with them, didn't have a chance to test the SQ before I went out but at that price they are a handy backup pair to have.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,211 ✭✭✭✭Suckit


    2nd pair (1st ordered) arrived today.
    All seems good, i have not charged them yet, Black version. The other ones were red/black.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,931 ✭✭✭jeffk


    Mine is just down as arrived at post office on the 20.01


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,580 ✭✭✭✭Riesen_Meal


    Had a quick go of these last night, surprised at the sound quality for such cheap yokes, I'd say the packaging cost more than the earphones 😂


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 355 ✭✭bossdrum


    I got a letter today from the Revenue requesting the purchase invoice.
    They must think it's an expensive piece of kit. :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,170 ✭✭✭messinkiapina


    Got mine. Very impressed for the money. The specs at 60 hour battery life. That can't be right, can it??

    Same here. Doesn't help that the price from that seller is now €25. They've accepted my paypal email receipt, though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,196 ✭✭✭pyramuid man


    Just got these today. Excellent quality. Unbelievable for the price of them.

    Kinda waiting for the catch tbh.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 863 ✭✭✭Rooy


    Got mine friday , grand for the price as a backup pair or will pass to the kids.
    Have a pair i for about 30 euro from 7dayshop last year , these are obviously not as good , not a fantastic fit on head/ears , sound is tinnier and plenty of leakage for the person beside you , but that is just a quick comparison , wasnt expecting anything more , thanks again OP


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,931 ✭✭✭jeffk


    Anyone else still waiting on them??

    Last tracking with AN Post ten days ago was left sorting centre


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 310 ✭✭kfrp


    Got mine last week delivered by an post.

    Great sound for the price.

    Is your parcel in the Dublin Mail Centre by any chance (ie customs)? Mine was delayed in customs so I dropped them an email (dmc@revenue.ie) with my tracking number, details of the order and a copy of my paypal receipt.

    The parcel was released the following working day with no charges

    I think I'll fire off an email to be sure so ,thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 626 ✭✭✭shardylan


    When I track mine it says item is preadvised .That has been showing for 10 days now .Anyone else have that ? Have sent customs an email to check if they might have them .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,766 ✭✭✭RossieMan


    Preadvised would usually mean it's not been sent to the courier yet?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 626 ✭✭✭shardylan


    Yeh had emailed nl post.
    Had got an email from eBay last week saying seller a/c may have been compromised and not to send money .Think after seller changed listing to usb wire they were trying to say a:c hacked .theyre not answering now so Guessing I won’t be receiving them now


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,931 ✭✭✭jeffk


    SO pass the pass literally and figuratively

    Email I sent got bounced to BMW Athlone post with this

    To whom it may concern,
    Please see email below.
    Regards
    Ronan Farrelly
    Customs
    Dublin Mail Centre

    Then they sent me this
    Hi,
    You must send in evidence of valuation that also describes the products. We have two packets here in total. Send to amc@revenue.ie
    Gerry.

    So I eventually found out you can download a PDF of PayPal receipt and sent that on, as a screenshot etc doesn't seem to enough

    As someone said they must look more than they actually are and customs rubbing their hands on some potential tax etc


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,931 ✭✭✭jeffk


    1 of 3 arrived, customs in Athlone last week said had two packages,so not looking good. An post tape opened for customs on the side,but didn't open the plastic around the box itself.

    Excellent sound and product,great bargain thanks OP


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,556 ✭✭✭sioda


    Got mine this morning. Very impressed so far. Well worth the punt.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,931 ✭✭✭jeffk


    Panic over.

    Got onto an post customer care, came home to two in a package. Again with the custom tape and one of the headphone bags opened with the same tape on it.

    Thankfully no messing with PayPal or broken English emails to the seller.

    In the end worth it all for a great bargain, can enjoy them now, thanks again OP

    Mine won't take a charge. Plugged em in, see the red LED. It never changes - event after an overnight charge. When I plug them out, holding down the on/off button does nothing. Have I missed something, or did I get a dud? They'll still work wired, so no biggie.
