Anyone?

it's good to be sure..
but when I've tried that, in my younger and very sure days, ... it didn't work...
there were power needs that were not being met, somewhere in the set-up...
but, hey, for $11 for three sets... it's worth (you) trying!!!

My cat thought it would be great to jump off my desk and snag the cable on the way down. It ripped right off my head and broke both ear pieces off.

now you have an earless cat? poor kitty!

XBOX LIVE HEADSETS USE 2.5mm JACKS RATHER THAN THIS 3.5mm JACK, BUT YOU CAN PROBABLY BUY AN ADAPTER.

edit: and by are there I mean where :-p

But you can get an adapter if you want.

In for 3... figure these are good throw away headsets for family members.

A lot of refurbs are items that have actually never left the factory, but, were made, and tested but weren't perfect, so they had to be fixed and are then sold as refurbs. Which means they are brand new, just had to be made right the second time.

thank you kind wooter.

The foam is attached to the ear pieces. It is do-able, but they won't be as nice as they started out. Altho, at this price some compromises could be made...

Ordered 3 of these 14 days ago.... still have not received them. FedEx tracking says "Anticipated ship date: March 30". That's the last update! Woot staff says "wait till end of week and if tracking is not updated, we'll look into it"... sigh.

Yay! Back from class and didn't miss anything important.

if only i could use this on my ps3

bravo6 wrote:daaaamn it.. are their adapters that would work??

Yes

Something similar to those, that is kind of an expensive adapter. Try eBay

In for 3. Been looking for some decent non-USB ones. For the price, these will do.

After all the Todd's Dirt, USB lights, and Bacon Salt; it's headphones that make me better than everybody else?!?

Took one for the team. Need a new pair since I tripped and tore the cord out of my old set...

Okay I caved and am now in for two. At less than $10 for both they're practically disposable!

So, you were in customer relations in Afghanistan, eh? When? We might have been there at the same time. By the way, how often did you get shot at?

Could use a headset.... and a backup when that one breaks... in for 2

thanks, I was looking for the wrong size, no wonder I couldn't find them

Could probably get cheaper but this was a quick search.

c'mon woot. how about a roomba!

As an IT guy at a collection agency, I'm getting a kick out of the woot write-up. (And these replies)

I could have sworn I selected "I want 2", but my order says one. Did this happen to any one else?

Not once since I moved out of LA.

*If you did serve in our Military, thank you. Very, very, very much.

Then clean it when you get it. Geesh. Is everyone in America germaphobes. We aren't talking large amounts of earwax on the headset.

click on the photo and see for yourself.

Why is the mannequin so pissed off?

Would have thought that SOMEONE at Woot would think to put in the description whether this headset was STEREO or MONO.

Not me, I clicked 2 and my order says 2.

I have the utmost respect for our soliders (at the same time as I want them all to come home) but PTSD refers to trauma. Angry screams and insults and even death threats from customers is traumatic too. Maybe not as much as getting shot at with guns or seeing your friends get ripped apart by an IED, but still trauma (especially if it was daily/repeated/long-term).

will these work on my 2g Itouch for Skype ?

I have these, and they are really good. Surprisingly comfy for the style. Normally I cannot wear behind the ear style due to my glasses, but these fit fine.

ladyinthestorm wrote:I could have sworn I selected "I want 2", but my order says one. Did this happen to any one else?

E-mail them, chances are they will have an extra and can bump your order.

Just got my order of three in today. First one I opened had multiple hairs coming out of the foam! That's not refurbished, that's USED!!! I'm afraid to touch the other ones.

Also, they were described as coming with clip-on colors, but these have none.

I think I'm tossing these in the trash (or fire) and learning my lesson... NO REFURBS FROM WOOT.

I'm happy with mine, no "DNA samples" in them

Adequate headphones, been using the for a while, clear sound , no one has complained about the way I sound through Skype (so the mic is ok) and I don't see them falling apart any time soon either.

They (3) came with all their color swapping stuff. They only bad thing was the packaging (bad look for a gift) but it costs about $12 new. We paid $1.99 this is one of my top3 Woots.
