I can’t buy multiple units just to test this, but you may be eligible for one freebie IEM for every eligible over/on-ear headphone you buy. It looks so in the shopping cart when I added multiple units to price-check them. But I did not place the order, so it’s not 100% certain 🙂 I wish I could just buy headphones by the pound just to test offers, but unfortunately none of the retailers accept Monopoly money 🙂
