    As they are in ear headphones unlikely to be used and, I posted that they are Amazon warehouse (hence the price).

    With so many pairs available I am hoping they are actually new and they just found some stock lying around - find out tomorrow - its not unheard of with Amazon.

    When they arrive the ear tips (selection of sizes) are attached to a rubber strip and have to be removed from that to be used - it will be very clear if they have been 'tested' - if that is the case then, back they go or, Amazon discount them further - it's not hard to come by ear tips for such headphones and I already have a set of 65t Jabra anyhow which were purchased new.

    As with any Warehouse purchase, which I know to my disappointment on a few occasions - there's a bit of a gamble and weigh up whether saving is worth the potential hassle of a return.

    At £25, to me its worth it.

    If they have to go back, not the end of the world.

    Ah feck, I ordered these after seeing the thread and I didn't read the fine print. They will arrive tonight, the fine print say that the user will need to order replacement earbuds. I hope at least that its just the silicon and that I didn't just order a case.

    Has anyone received them yet? The few reviews are all from people who received them and they wouldn't take a charge at all. Obviously not a big deal as can just be refunded but I'd love to hear from at least 1 person who got them here 1st at least.

    I got mine today. Ordered ones that said very good with some minor imperfections. So far I cant find any imperfection or sign of usage. They come with new set of earbuds and perfectly packed. I will charge them now and report back if any issue is found but so far so good

    Edit: Left earphone doesn't seem to turn on. I read that it's a common issue. There might be the reason why there is plenty of stock… If someone finds a solution please let me know

    Edit 2: I continue reading plenty of problems about connectivity issues on this headphones. I asked for a return

    I have a set of these for about 5+ years and they are great for work. One complaint is that if you do not insert both in to both ears at around the same time only one will work. Not a huge deal but you cannot put in one and then the other. Both need to be insertered more or less at same time.

    Has anyone actually received a working pair? Seems like the experiences here match the latest Amazon reviews unfortunately.

    they came perfectly packed, but the right earbud is completely dead. Left one has flashing LED when I put it back in the case, but nothing for the right one….off to customer service…

    Just a suggestion, but people might try and clean the contacts on the buds and case with some isopropyl alcohol (or vodka if you’re stuck). I bought a different brand a couple of months ago that seemed to be stone dead, but 30 secs with a qtip sorted the issue.

    Nothing out of mine either, kind of expected once I saw the thread and then when I saw the amount of dusk on the box I was certain they wouldn't work

    Bought a couple of other products that were DOA from warehouse despite the "like new" description. I'd be reluctant to buy another electronic product from warehouse, chances are it's faulty.

    I use the Soundcore Space A40. Not as good as the Bose wired earphones the replaced, but at about a fifth of the cost they do a pretty good job. I rarely use them for calls but wor walking in windy conditions and travelling on planes they are pretty decent. Might be worth considering as an alternative to the Jabra65t, at not much greater cost.

    Sorry everyone - seems like not even 1 of of us got a working set - maybe we can combine and make a couple of working sets!!

    Shocking by Amazon and unfortunately seems typical of Warehouse lately - how many defective sets are they just recycling - surely it's better even for them to return them to the manufacturer and get their money back than keep posting them out and incurring return postage/restocking costs.

    We need a group action on this one against Amazon so basically rather than the 'hassle' of returning them we simply all get refunded and bin them on their behalf.

    Warehouse used to be so much better but, like another poster, I think I am going to avoid anything electrical from warehouse in the future.
