snr 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 ok first in first served don't think twice, this will not happen everyday brand new one coming from US my friend coming back to sg with 5 flat pads only this pad is a must for grado/alessandro owners US price for pad US$30 plus US5 for the delivery which equivalent to SG$58 delivery within US$5 for each pad but since we order 5 at the same time, we get cheaper delivery rate so the saving goes to sg buyers only $49 each pick up location sls, funan, taka or eastern mrt station preferrably eunos or kembangan I also have limited stocks of senn414 yellow pad only $20 each currently out of stock in sls and islandwide 91495914 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaya86 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 (edited) u got to be kidding me, sennheiser pads for 20 bucks? eh i got mine for 8 over at sennheisers, sorry for being rude, but ur deal dun reli seem like a good one to me, even hung brothers sells the pads for 17 a pair and i feel that they rip pple off big time Edited December 19, 2004 by papaya86 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snr 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 i agree with u papaya86 that sg$17 for just a pair of pads is a total rip off. but maybe u are not aware that my senn pad has been cut with a perfect round hole.. all of my previous buyers are happy with the pad mod since they hate to cut the pad with a coin. hope u understand the cost and time that i have spent are worth the price Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaya86 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 aaaa, i tink u didnt catch me there, its selling IN singapore RIGHT now at$ 7.50sing dollars per pair, hey i dun mind helping pple cut a hole in the pads for 3bucks a pair, and pple who does this mod chooses the size of the holes themselves to suit their audio preferences, the time taken for me to cut my pair of pads was about 5mins or maybe less? and i do believe the grado flat pads are selling in "musicbydesign" at a much lower price than wad u have quoted. after i check with them on the availablity and price of the pads ill post it here. all in all if we can spend 7.50 to get the same pair of headphone pads, do u tink pple will still get from u at 20?

snr 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 i'm afraid that you are the one who misunderstood me no pun intended i bought 8 senn 414 pads from hung bro's for sg$17 each so you said you don't mind helping ppl by cutting the pad for 3 bucks a pair ok that's very generous of you i sold the modded pad for $20 each which means i only "earn" $2 for a pair my buyers did not mind to pay an extra $2 since they knew the risk of cutting it wrongly. did i say i bought the senn 414 in US or $8 only?.... no hard feeling bro Quoted from previous reply"do u tink pple will still get from u at 20?" well, i dunno but let the ppl be the judges Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nakedtoes 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 $20?? $20 for 3 would be a fair price.. wrong forum to rip ppl.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slumber 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 (edited) $20 for 2 would be fine, $20 for 3, he would suffer a loss.... For $7.50, you would have to go straight to Senn to buy from them. Who knows whether he bought the pads for $7.50... and trying to rip off the forum users ... Sorry if i may sound rude.

ght 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 guys cool down i'm sure snr is not trying to rip off anyone here in fact he is one of the nicest guy i've ever met. i went to his house to pick up the sennheiser pads in july. he cut the pad in front of me with a tube cutter. now, i am not trying to defend anyone here since i don't know whether he bought it for 7.50 or 17 but at that time the only place that i'm aware of selling the pad is only sls at level 3 just my 2 cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

snr 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 Let me repeat this again I am not earning any real profits for doing this I do not how to prove it to you all but my consciences are clear till this stage I have received an order of two pairs of flat from sms this afternoon I have made a decision to cancel his order due to these simple misunderstanding The main topic of this sale is the flat pad not senn 414. you can email Todd the vinyl junkie for his current price. US$35 is equivalent to SG$58 and yet I am only selling it for only SG$49 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snr 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 quoted from previous reply "Grado flatpads for $49/30usd ? You have got to be kidding me! Don't these go for 10 or 15usd?" I will take that as a compliment thank you very much http://www.toddthevinyljunkie.com/products...e%20Accessories grado flat pad US$30 as stated there plus US$5 delivery not stated there I sell the flat for only SG$49 because you don't have to pay for the delivery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaya86 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 yes its stated 30usd for the pads for this website... but musicbydesign in singapore is selling the pads at a price way cheaper than wad you have quoted... so its impossible for u to unload these pads to the pple here in this forum at 49bucks... if i rememberd correctly from my previous visit to MBD, it was around 20bucks or lower, cant remember the exact price. and one more thing, i seriously dun understand how a sane person would go get 8 pairs of sennheiser headphone pads from hung brothers at 17bucks, thats like 136bucks and also purposely bring back 5 pairs of grado flatpads from the states. u have a fetish for headphone pads? even if ur reason is to help pple here in singapore to get something dat cant be gotten locally (though both the items ur selling are available locally at a cheaper price), u could haf asked the forumers here beforehand if we wanted the pads and upon confirmation there is demand, u can safely purchase them. but the funny thing is that u just suddenly pop up and push ur sales all over the place. and i dunno want to luff or to cry,previously after tellin u the senn pads can be gotten at 7.50, i stated hung bros was ripping pple off by selling at 17 and u replied with "i agree with u papaya86 that sg$17 for just a pair of pads is a total rip off.", so if hung brothers rip pple off at 17, and u sell them at 20 with a hole made, i guess its safe to say ur worst off than hung brothers. its pretty unethical to charge 3 bucks just to make 2 holes if u ask me. k la flaming session over, u should reli revise ur prices for both the pads if u wanna sell them off fast Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sigma 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 (edited) So what's the price of the flats from MBD? Anyone? BTW the head-fi group buy going on now for flats in Australia has a quoted price of AUD 36, which is S$45. Edited December 19, 2004 by sigma Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
av98m 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2004 Oh, I got the sr60 pads and the flatpads mixed up, my apologies. Come on guys, lets give him the benefit of the doubt. Those who dun want to pay $20 can buy for $7 or $8 from sennheiser and cut hole yourself(I did that), others can pay the extra $13 for perfectly cut holes , its a free market. After all he took the risk of buying all those pads knowing the possibility that he may end up sitting around sucking thumb with with all his unsold pads Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
