Kind of wondering why 3 people consider this a bad deal? I'm not saying its certainly a GREAT deal, but to me it was. Anyone have bad experience with Sennheiser products? Know something about these phones that I don't? Am I going to regret my purchase?
If its just that there are cheaper noise canceling products out there - I agree, but to me Sennheiser products are worth the premium. Sennheiser certainly is not for everyone, but there are few out there who can appreciate them!
Thanks

PuvMan -
Thanks for the post - in for 1! I don't know why people are considering this a bad deal. I have been tracking these since August for a purchase and this is by far the best price around. The previous best was at DAKmart for $217 shipped but they were refurbs and only had a 90 day warranty. These are factory new and come with a Sennheiser 2 year warranty. I am guessing people just consider it too expensive for noise cancelling headphones rather than a reflection on your post. The cheapest I had ever seen these new and shipped was around $240. For those that don't care as much about sound quality, they probably seem like expensive toys, but for those annoying loud flights with engine noise and screaming children, these headphones are a godsend! PuvMan, don't let the negatives get you down, for those who know the product, this is a hot deal based on its historical price and I thank you for the post!
awesome - I'm glad more people have seen this thread and got in!! I did overnight shipping. Ordered on the night of the 17th. Was at my door today at 1 PM. Can't beat it
Headed for a 2 week trip to the far east next week... will be taking a total of 11 flights between Nov 24th and Dec 9th
My new NC cans and I are going to get to know each other REALLY well!!!

Just checked and saw that it was OOS (could not add to cart). But this is a good deal for these headphones. The Bose QC series sells for more and is not as good sound wise.
