Refusal to take responsibility.
Hi, Just thought I would make a note here of your handling of my issues. I ordered a pair of HD6xx headphones and then earlier today recieved the package. I drive to go and get it, as I like in the UK I had to pay import tax and handling fees. These total £47.92. The breakdown being £35.92 in tax and £12 in fees. These taxes were calculated of the shipping label of the box, which marked the shipment as the 6xx headphones of $199 value. Before leaving the parcel depot, I open the box to find a $35 lord of the rings mousepad. So now the problem is not only do I not have the headphones, but you have marked the shipment wrong so I have paid £47.92 fees for the handling of the mousepad. Which would have acrued £0 of fees if marked correctly as it is under £135. I go back to the desk but as I have already paid the fees I am unable to reject the shipment, but as the box said 6xx, there was no way for me to know before opening it. I contact support and they offer me a replacement, which...

Whether it's out of my phone, AVR, hybrid tube amp, portable amp/DAC, etc. the Elex sound amazing. It's essentially a budget Clear at less then half the price. You can't really beat that.
You certainly have every right to say that you would buy them for $500 and not $700! Assuming that you actually know what the Elex sounds like that statement is based on either (a) taste (as in you want more bass like in the Fostex) or (b) you only have $500 to spend on new headphones. But I can tell you that at least for some - like me - they were worth the $700 (based on taste and ability to pay).
I am sure that over the next few months some used pairs will become available and may eventually hit the $500 price point you want then pick them up - assuming that they meet your tastes!
