[QUOTE="Audiophile101, post: 760775, member: 15672"] Yes, I have chosen the DT880E version. I find that getting it locally is a lot of trouble too. I don't know of a single store where I can walk in and purchase it off the shelf. Then I find the online stores (local) that have it, but not in the version I want. After post-purchase research, I found that I could have bought a pair locally for only a few hundred rand more - but again, not in the version I want. Some of the local online retailers advertise it but they don't have it in stock; some charge over 1000 rand more than what I can get it on ebay. I have been fortunate enough that every item I've ever ordered on ebay has arrived, but I understand the risk of it going missing in transit and I certainly hope that doesn't ever come to pass. As for needing to actually use the warranty, well, it's not impossible, but it is improbable. All in all, I find ebay a less-nonsense approach, but I concede with you in that there are risks. Ebay does have a money back guarantee, should your item not arrive and I hope never to use it, lest they become like Amazon and just refuse to ship to SA. [/QUOTE]
