    Saw these on eBay the other night...as low as $25 delivered. Also had the better specced EX90lp for not much more.

    This seller has all the colours and is pretty cheap, feedback isn't bad.

    [edit] As with any asian seller there is a risk of buying fakes...so buyer beware.

    Like I said, the lower and mid range models aren't fakes but a lot of the high end sony MDRs from Asia seem to be. I was tempted by the MDR-EX700's but at ~15% of the retail price, all you're getting is the housing and bog standard drivers and magnets...buyer feedback isn't always a good indicator as to them being genuine.
