News: No more new products from Oppo Digital
A sad day in the world of A/V, Oppo Digital (the US persona of the company based in the Silicon Valley) is going to stop making new products but will continue to provide support, warranty and repairs for their existing products. This was posted in a farewell post on their website. We discuss this more at the content-side of this website…
How this will impact the pricing of their existing inventory, only time can tell. It depends on how much else they have available to sell, how much people love them, and what other competitive options are and will come out in the next few months/years. They will continue to sell them through their own store and other marketplaces such as amazon.com.

Monoprice Metal Closed On-Ears for $18 w/free S&H
Another couponless Monoprice sale and with free US standard shipping to boot! It’s the new condition Monoprice Metal Closed On-Ears, PID 18515, going for $18 with free standard US shipping. No coupon needed. This is a limited time offer but expiration date is unmentioned. It averages 4.4 out of 5 based on 38 customer reviews and has 13 questions answered (23 answers available).
Since the above gets free shipping, it should absorb most (if not all) of the S&H fee of this $2 new condition Monoprice 1-button earphones, PID 18591. They average 4.3 out of 5 based on 60+ customer reviews. Shipping is extra, so append to another order to absorb their S&H fee.

JBL T280A earphones for $15 w/free S&H
On the budget side of things, with free shipping (but not the faster 2nd-day air shipping because they are under $20) you can get the new condition JBL T280A earphones for $15 with free shipping in your choice of three color schemes from the official JBL store’s weekly sales where they average 3 out of 5 based on 42 customer reviews, so read up on them if not familiar – the score is a sign of issues and/or trade-offs (and/or user-confusion).
