Earphone from Ebay

I decided to the buy a new earphone. Thanks to the deterioration of my current headphone which I got free with Nokia 5800, it was from Sennheiser. Then problem was which one to buy. I initially thought I would buy one from Sennheiser itself but it turned out to be costly. After some online research I settled on Sony MDR-XB21EX .

Its a relative new model. I actually am not a fan of online shopping. I like checking out and feeling stuff before I buy. But I could not find a place to buy this one. Couple of shops I inquired didn't have the model. I guess that was because this was a new model. So I turned to ebay. Which had the same model listed at the same cost as was in the Sony site.

I had made just one online purchase earlier. That was one mp3 player from ebay. That was not for me also, it was for a friend who asked me to buy on his behalf. I went for a seller in the same city as me. I thought that would result in faster delivery and I was correct. It was shipped and delivered in just one day. I ordered it yesterday and got it today afternoon :)

And it turned out to be a good earphone. Though I would say the sound quality is not as great as my current Sennheiser headphone.

Evening there was a mail from ebay containing there current offers and promoted products and there was a 15% off offer. Damn they could have sent it yesterday. I could have saved 500 bucks. :(

Now waiting for another purchase I made online. Its a Kindle :D
I pampered myself with one last Sunday. Its on its way to me. Now its in London. That would be separate blog once I receive it.
