I don’t get the chubby everyone has for Bose. I’ve always found the sound quality just marginally better than anyone else. Bose certainly is not worth the inflated price, glorified infomercial junk.
ebay is never a guarantee… I bought a few sweatshirts from a company (obviously not well established enough, even though it had over 1k in rep). I bought the items in early December hoping for a Xmas gifting, but alas they were late and hoped to use them for a mid January b-day gift for the same person. They never came. Seems the guy let over 300 auctions end while in the midst of some domestic issues and didn’t ever check on the status of all the sales he did. I fought with paypal and ebay for 2 months before I got my money back (and no sweatshirts for the person I bought them for.)
Just be wary of saying you’ll get an ebay item before a woot item.
In fairness to Woot, the coupon was obviously only valid during the pre-sale. They even said that it was probably only going to be active for “a few days”. That was over a week ago. They didn’t have to offer the coupon in the first place. Plus you had two days of woot-offing to use it too.
There is a fairly large oval button under the price that says “I Want One!” on it. I would probably start there.
Seriously suggest you have husband checked for “Sleep Apnea”. Heavy snoring is an indication. This condition can be quite serious.
It will also stop his snoring.
“Bose quality”… isnt that an oxymoron?
im kidding tho ive no experience with Bose.
One last thing… These are NOT shipping SmartPost. Which means they will probably ship FedEx Ground and should be able to get to either coast in 3-5 days from the day they pack them up. I Usually get my stuff in 2-3 days in Indiana via standard FedEx.
These have the same specs as the Bose, only 1/5 the price. I have both and can’t tell the difference between the two (aside from the wallet raping that the fine folks from Bose gave me, for which I continue my therapy).
The best part is that these puppies will leave you ONLY with the voices inside your head (aside from the voice that keeps telling you to hunt me down; let’s just ignore that one)
I have small but sensitive ears and anything heavier than clip-ons hurts them if left on too long.
Do these actually encompass (or envelope) the ENTIRE ear, and do they put pressure on your outer ear (particularly the helix)?
They do cover the entire ear,without any pressure to the helix.
I have both the Bose over the ear and the Jabra. Obviously, the Bose is better; However, for the price. Jabra headset do a good job. 8 out of 10 for the Jabra. 10 out of 10 for the Bose. I bought 2 for gifts to my friends during the VIP sale.
The shirts wanted to be my first, but lack of XL made them the worst.
So fired on the headphones and they … with a packet burst … slaked the woot thirst.
Or something like that.
Anything jabra more than $5 has got to be a joke… Seriously?
“Premium Quality Leatherette!”
That’s full of logic and sense…who let you in here? It’s always better to complain about the things a company is doing wrong than what they are doing correctly. It should have been a $20 coupon, it should have lasted 6 months, Woot staff should come over and clean my house.
I’m in for 1. Based on the Amazon reviews, Froogle, and the cost of Bose, these are a steal! Expect these to sell out quickly.
Cripes a mighty, another ear focused device. If I had an ear for every woot ear gadget offered, well… uh… that would just be weird.
Do you think these headphones would work under my scuba gear? I only go down 500 feet or so and would really like some tunes while I am building underground oil rigs.
Yea I really wish I didn’t just spend 1,000 dollars getting my Clutch fixed on my car… I want a pair of these
anyone wanna help a poor college student out on an x mas present?
