CX300-II

I'm trying to find some for a reasonable price at a reputable seller.

Seeing as these have always been a fakers favourite i'm loathe to take a chance with Amazon or Play who are both using 'marketplace' sellers not themselves. (edit - in fact, they're both using the same one Best Digital Market) (edit 2 - especially having looked through amazon's reviews, the last few months have people complaining of poor build quality and no bass, two traits I certainly would not expect to see attributed to genuine items. "So I bought these again, the design had changed slightly, and they didn't even last a month." That just screams of suspect items currently as I don't think Sennheiser have changed them at all.)

I'm sure somewhere must be doing them for sub £20 that isn't completely dodgy?

If not I might just get some MetroFi 220s. I heard the Sony XB20s were meant to be a very good alternative to CX300s but having looked at a pair the bit outside the ear is HUGE so i'm avoiding those.

I know a few people here ended up getting some a while back, where did you end up purchasing and how much were they?
