Yea, this is a pretty hot price. Too bad it isn't the Vibe DUO version that is iPhone compatible

I think the early version has the better sound quality. Lot of ppl are not fond of the newer versions.

Picked up a pair. Amazing for forty bucks, tax in. Not perfect acoustically, but very comfortable and much better than any other headphones at the price point (and IEMs to boot).

First time living up North has ever come in handy...the store I went to had three pairs left when I got there last night. I bought two, the clerk noticed the sale and bought the third.

Found a pair last night, they sound amazing for $40 taxes in, and I haven't even broken them in, gonna let them run all night. Pretty sure they are an older pair due to the amount of dust on the packaging. They wanted $119 for them and didn't believe me that they were $35 on their site.
Thanks OP!

great headphones for the price.. excellent sound quality but questionable durability imo...

i had a pair of vibe duo's the busted (after 6 months) and got vmoda to send me a new pair (these have lasted about 4 months so far on my iphone.

even thought the vibes don't have the call/answer button you can still use them on your iphone and they should fit the first gen iphone 2

probably not since it's clearance and older merchandise, but doesn't hurt to check your local TSCC

Just so people don't get their hopes up about these canal phones, they are very entry level. If you are encoding your mp3's at a high bitrate, have a decent mp3 player and are looking for a headphone to play your tunes at a quality in tune with that investment, these are not them. Any decent review will show problems with the build quality and bloated bass. If you are in need of something to replace a broken set of iPod buds then these are a logical step up.

BTW, you can use these in a iphone and still use the iphone's built in mic

If I had some extra cash, I would've pulled the trigger now. It isn't bad for working out I guess as I have my Super Fis as my daily IEMs.

I picked up a pair of these the other day. The clerk had to get them out of the back and was also surprised at the price. I've been using them for a few days now and I really enjoy them. I love bass and for earbuds they arn't overpowering for bass but they definitely produce a good level of it for the music I listen too. Great buy!

I bought them when they went on clearance about a month ago, then saw that they were on sale, so got the difference back and bought the warranty. So now when they die, I'll replace them with the $100 senheiser in-ear buds. since there were very few of the v-modas in town.

If anyone is wondering, they are the old model with the straight connector. Sound is pretty good, heavy bass and light mids as all the reviews state. I find them different, but at least as good as the Sennheiser CX 300's I've been using for the last couple of years (and they're not broken in yet).

I think I got the last pair in Ottawa this morning (Carling). There are 4 left in Gatineau if anyone is still looking. The clerk tried to tell me that there was only a 3mth manf. warranty, after I got them open I noticed the warranty clearly states they are covered for a full year.
