Amazon.com is the best place to get the ATH-M50's. The price usually hovers around $100-110, but now it's increased to $130. Still a good deal though, considering they cost almost 9k locally.

For shipping rates and times, read this link:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_navbox_596184_tips?nodeId=596188

I would suggest instead that you course your shipment through Johnny Air Cargo, that way you can avail of the free shipping to the US, then have JAC ship your package here faster. More details here:

There's one in tpc for PHP 8300.00. A bit pricey but if you really want them now, have extra cash in hand and want to avoid shipping hassles and waiting time.. then it's not that bad.

Haha.. if he got it off amazon for $11 then YES!  ;D But I think the seller got them locally since he still got an official receipt and its under warranty.

Speaking of ATH-M50,

Anyone knows where it is still available locally? I've checked a few stores that had them and they're all sold out. :(

These cans are really expensive compared to Amazon price. Are they still wort it at the local price?
