When is this supposed to be delivered because I tried to cancel a while back but apparently it didn't work. And apparently the transaction has already gone through and can't be canceled, so I just want to know when to expect it to be shipped.

"Same as this one - it's all one batch. We would have extended the drop but due to a technical limitation we had to capture payment last night." - nicpope
If you were using PayPal, you can just open up a dispute ticket, but I'd try to message the Mass Drop mods/admins/marketing first.
I'm personally just going to wait out and see how these HE-350 drop goes. I'm having a look around for other pairs of open-back headphones while I wait for them to ship and arrive.

hydroforgeThanks. I wasn't using PayPal. I just used my card. I had sent an email to customer support and got this back "Hey there!
Thanks for contacting Massdrop Support. Since the group's order has already been placed with the vendor, I am unable to cancel your order. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Please let me know if you have additional questions or concerns." Oh well I guess. I'll have two pairs of headphones now. One closed and now one open back.

JayDayHad a play with a friend's ATH AD2000x, such a nice pair of sounding headphones. So something like that for me. Also having a serious gander at a pair of Alessandro MS Pro. But for me they both seem like a fragile headphones, I tend to break everything I touch (R.I.P. In Pieces TMA-1 Studio 2014-2015) so as much sound quality is as important is, solid build quality is a must as well.

Typhoon360ZThat's a shame. I used my CC as well so the only option you have of canceling the transaction is via charge back. That's always a painful thing to do but if you must...

hydroforgeNot sure how much I can help you find a pair of headphones, because I mostly rely on Zeos nowadays, but I want to try to help.
Z calls the ad900x a sort of "little brother" to the 2000x, so if you don't want to spend too much money and get a similar sound signature, the 900x looks like a good option.
If wanting to spend a bit more, the Phidelio X2 also appears like a great option. I have the SHP9500 instead of the these 350's since only 3 days ago because of Z, the only other thing I have is the M50 with srh840 pads. I am very heavy on customizing the EQ to get the most natural sound I can from headphones, the M50 has a ton to EQ I've customized. I felt like I could use the SHP9500 without an EQ, but it always helps.
Z likes the Hifiman 400i/400s with HM5 pads, another appealing offer.
You could always try out the T50rp mk3 and see if it becomes your new favorite, like Z. Just make sure you have the power to make them run, though people have said in the comments that Z probably just got a bad pair. I've read people saying that they can get comfortable volumes with in IPhone 6.
The only personal recommendation is for the SHP9500 because from what I listed, that is what I own. Maybe you could get the LCD-X 😛 (I don't use emotes often).

MrPokeboy8I'm starting the like the idea of the HiFiMAN HE-400s or the HE-400i. Would be nice to have a pair of Planars.

hydroforgeYou know, I heard of a rebate thing going on for the t50rp mk3.
http://www.americanmusicandsound.com/en/pages/promos/promo_fostex_50_rebate_RPMK3_2016.html
From what I understand, if you are in the U.S., and buy from an official Fostex distributor (I think that is $160?), then you can get the mk3 for a end total of $110, not counting taxes, shipping, V-Moda cable, and 1540 pads. Looks like a perfect deal to me. If you don't have the power to run these headphones, I don't, maybe the $50 saving can go towards an amp. If you want to use on say a phone... choose having a portable amp, hoping on the power of the phone, or go to the HE-400s with the extremly low power necessary to run; Zeos loves the 400s with HM5 pads.
I am just trying to inject ideas. Lasts until July 31.

MrPokeboy8Not an Ameribro so I don't think I can take advantage of such rebates. Thanks for the effort though, I'm sure others will take advantage of it! I however already have a FiiO E10K Olympus 2 powering my Kingston HyperX Cloud Core a pair of "okay-ish" closed backs, that's I wanna give a decent pair of open-backs a go now.
