    Nice catch, but it probably won't work and all orders will be cancelled. :eek:

    Actually they didnt, but I am not sure how legit it is. You have to click on the buy it now button, and it sends you to a paypal for 19.99

    They probably wouldnt honor it anyways, and im not sure about how credible the website or where the payment is even going....

    Looks like a scam. I can't find it on reddit nor can I find anything about the company via google. Searches for the company only bring up a few results similar to the one the OP posted. This isn't "going viral" as the OP says. Plus the OP is a dude that has zero rep and only 20 posts to his name...

    It's probably clever viral marketing advertisement by that website.

    Never understood why headphones cost 200 dollars to begin with. Those headphones cost more than my LG G2x. :eek:

    The thread starter is making this whole thing up so he can still your money on his website. I mean he just joined these forums and 3814 said it's not on reddit at all.
