Kay, I got a pair of Solo HD Dr.Dres for christmas,


I've just noticed on the on the right ear,


One of the hinges have actually popped out so there on a slant. I got them from HMV,

you can't return them to the store as it's too late, but can contact the manufacturers as it's still under warranty.

I'm not sure I understand why these headphones are worth hundreds of dollars in the first place.

same goes for every single popular brand out there - because of the brand logo.

Whenever my friends see someone with these headphones they always joke with each other about how the person completely wasted their money just to look "cool". I have to say there are several kids I've seen who wear them 24/7 and it's obvious they just like to show them off because they think it makes them look good or something along those lines. I don't know much about headphones to tell you the truth, but I don't know how those very expensive headphones are any better then much more inexpensive ones.

I still can't figure out why Macs are worth thousands of dollars in the first place.

My iMac and MacBook were not over priced at all in North America, and were fairly priced for what I got when I bought them :)

the point is that they're most probably not better than inexpensive ones - but people know that the brand is currently quite popular and so are buying into it. we see it all the time with clothing and because more young people are slowly getting more disposable income, they can just about afford to start splashing out on things like expensive headphones, watches, bags etc. (or get them as gifts). so your whole point can be applied to, well, everything which is purchasable and has its own market - as we all know that just because it's expensive, doesn't mean it's quality equates its price. why do people buy brand food products when there isn't much difference between brands and the supermarkets own brand? those who buy the more expensive products aren't seen as wasting their money are they? it's just their preference. which is just the same as what's happening right now. oh, and no one is "wasting their money" if they're aware that they can buy cheaper alternatives and are just buying into the brand itself - the whole concept of fashion is to "look cool", and buying things that are currently "in fashion" is what everyone does to some extent.

still don't get what i've ever done to you for you to be so stupid for nothing, unless that's actually your personality - in which case you probably need to look into sorting out your attitude :)

glad we had this conversation though, bye now!

Showed the girl the problem at the till and showed the receipt.

She just replaced them with a brand new set. Got black this time around.
