Yeah, they have great value I got mine for £6 (about 10 bucks) Just be careful with the rubber my cousin's cable broke in just one month....

skullcandies look nice but they suck, they don't stay in-ear for anyone

whats your strategy for keeping them in? they come loose every so often while im using them. i tried the different sized caps and found the one that fit me best but somehow theyre still a little loose. is it just my ears or is there a special way to keep them in?

Well, what I did was use the biggest in-ear size to keep it in, but thenit kept falling out everytime i took it out of my pockets...

I recommend NOT getting and Skullcandy in-ear's...I had mine for half a year until the the left-earpiece stopped working for no reason, like it just gave out! :mad:

As of now, i'm looking into some Phillip earbuds, something that looks better than my 3-year-old crappy iPod headphones...

you have to admit that the earphones that come with the ipods last a looooooooooooooooong time... well at least mine have haha no buzzing or anything :P sennheiser earphones are about 30 or 20 something dollars those are good. ive had those skullcandies i didnt like them all that much kept falling out and started buzzing at high volume

yeah, I recently exchanged my iPod touch for a new one, and in some weird twist I got a 40 dollar gift card for bestbuy.... So i bought these headfones for 20-something bucks... They're like a generic Phillips in ear type deal...they stay in for hours on end!!! they even stayed in during a whole nite of sleep...
Uhmm on the box it's like model SHE5910

i put the smaller caps on instead of the bigger ones and found that they actually do fit much better. i get a better sound quality now and no looseness.

Not a big fan of skull Candy. I used them, and felt they didn't deliever. Switched to Sennheiser CX300, and felt they were better quality for what I listen to.

Only problems I had, which I have will all inner ears is the left side is loose on the largest. But that's more my ears fault than theirs.

I have SkullCandy Ink'd "Smokin' Buds"

For $15 they are absolutely AWESOME. My friend went and spent $20 on the model up from these, and they sounded like crap, so more expensive isn't necessarily better.

I love my SkullCandy Smokin Bud Rasta headphones, they're fantastic. They're snug in my ear and the sound quality is good too. This is my second pair though, they break really easily. All my friends who have them are on their 3rd pairs already because they break easily. Just be careful with them.
