26% chance to pay 38$ for a pair of 35$ IEMs, blue boxes are not for international users...

noamsimBuy 2. There's no way you'd get 2 of the $35 ones and the others are discounted enough to make up that $3. Plus you'll have a nice birthday gift for someone.

noamsimNot to mention you get hit with a customs bill in Europe. In the UK this is £8 ($11) plus 20% of price. I paid at least $15 in customs for a $15 pair of Sennheiser CX 1.0 in a previous Bluebox, not to mention the shipping I paid. It was a lottery ticket, not a fair exchange.

tarhanaI think I might have got caught up in a frenzy. It's humid here at the moment. I think what happened for me is the price that the Sennheiser CX 1.0 sells for was less than the price I paid on the drop, especially with shipping. Then I got hit with a £10 customs bill. The Sennheiser CX 1.0 was selling for about £10 on amazon.co.uk, about $15. I paid $25.49 for the Bluebox grab-bag, and then paid $10 for shipping, with an added $15 for customs. Total price paid $50 for a $15 IEM. I've edited my original post to fix my erroneous statement. I think they will put the price you paid, but the price you pay may not match up with retail value, so be careful. It's been too long since I got that package to recall what price was on the package.
