Sennheiser CX500 - Best price?

Could someone tell me the best place to buy a pair of Sennheiser CX500's? Seems to be loads on eBay for around £10-£12 but can't be sure that they are genuine.

Thanks,

Sam

I wouldn't think they are real as they seems to go for about £40 on Play and Advanced Mp3 Players shop.

Play.com (UK) - Free Delivery - Electronics - Search Results: CX 500

I have always found Play to be the cheapest for genuine Sennheiser.

Be wary of the ones linked above, the are from Play trade and not Play themselves.

Good point, didn't see they were play trade. I would wait for Play to get them in stock.

The CX 500 are discontinued - the nearest is the CX 400 II (same quality as the 500) - retail is £59.20.

Don't buy too cheap or you'll get a fake.

If it's Amazon.co.uk themselves, you should be fine. If not, I can't say.
