Are you looking for some in-ear ones or normal ones.

TK Max sell some pretty good ones - for cheap prices.

Just stick with a decent brand and you should be fine.

Pretty sure I've had them, may not have been the ECO version... couldve been the CX300 I, but they're ******* mint.

Ipod headphones are crap, they break so easily. If you get a pair of headphones that are around 9-10 dollars (that's around £5 or £6 I think,) they usally work pretty well and last a while.

Skullcandy lowrider headphones i use around the house for my mac, for £20 -30 off amazon,

JVC jelly headphones i use for my ipod for out and about, as their comfy, qualities decent , and their only around £5,

JVC Jelly's are the way to go for cheap headphones, can get them from places like Asda/Argos/Currys for about a fiver. They can easily be compared to £30 ipod headphones.

Skullcandies have horrendous sound quality.
Seinheiser is probably a safe bet for quality and they do have some cheaper ones also.

The sound quality is alright for cheaper sets of Sennheiser but the build quality is flimsy.

Ooo free shipping!

Agreed with Apple, I've went through a ton of Sennheisers but they're relatively cheap and really nice so i dont mind lol

No.

Listen to Skullcandys and then try some from a decent brand. Epic difference.

This is true, I had Skullcandy then I moved onto a £50 pair of Philips and these are amazing compared to them and they are only Philips nothing special.

The following brands are terrible and should be avoided like the plague:
Sennheiser, Skullcandy, Bose, any of those "LOL COLOURS EVERYWHERE" headphones.

The following brands are excellent and should be purchased in mass quantities:
Audio Technica, AKG, Grado

I have to disagree with you there, Bose are great in general and the higher end Sennheiser are also good.

Bose and Sennheiser are both ride-on-reputation brands, they had great products, now they just make bog standard junk, they may or may not have 3 good products in the higher end but nothing for the everyday person.
