So my Ipod earphones, the one that comes originally when you buy a brand new Ipod, stopped working. So I decided to go to the Apple Store to replace my earphones. I asked the salesman there where can I get Ipod earphones, and he directed me to it. I saw it and grabbed a box of the Ipod earphones. To my surprise, I saw the price on it at $29.99. I mean seriously? I mean $30 ain't nothing to me, but for some cheap Ipod earphones to be charged that much is beyond ridiculous. I mean they don't even last long, and they fall off your ears easily. So I said f**k it, and decided to go to Best Buys, and I bought a pair of Phillips earphones which was half as expensive, and worked 5 times better than the Ipod earphones.

I would have done the same thing! I'm sure not going to pay that kind of money for things that don't even work to there standard. I'm better off investing money with bose.
