Black Solo HDsWhite Solo HDsWhite ProsBlack/red powerBeatsSome pictures don't have the logo, but that's just to keep themselves safe, and plus DX does get a bit PhotoShop happy sometimes.
The headphones themselves are apparently ghosts (made in the same factory, same machines, same materials), but are out of usual working hours). Some say the quality is a tiny bit worse than the 'official' ones which cost x5, but really that doesn't bother me considering to money saved.
I've bought stuff off of DX before, so it's fairly trusted I'd say. They do take a fair while to deliver though.
Happy head bopping!

Wow, EXPENSIVE! for DX stuff.
But nevertheless looks pretty good. Too bad I'm in a bit of financial trouble (lol lanhax).
Please note that DX once took 4 months to deliver for me! Four months! But everything will get delivered eventually. (Last order two weeks ago just got delivered, so they can be quick at times).
Rich: you got them yourselves?

They're delivery times can vary a bit :p
And not yet, but they're on the way, and a few for my mates (selling to them for £80 -> monies!)

They advertise before they have them in their warehouses if I remember correctly.

You guys, real or fake even at those prices DO NOT get Dre Beats.
They are overpriced! 'REAL' headphone companies such as Sennheiser, Sony, AKG, Grado, Audio-Technica, etc sell QUALITY headphones for fair prices, while Dre Beats are just overpriced sexy things to get everyone's money! Even at those prices I'd still look into 'real' headphones in the same range and compare.
I do love DealExtreme though! And Rich, I know you were just being nice and showing us all a good deal, thank you for that :]. ^All that's just my opinion.

Haha no problem, that's your opinion, and I'm not going to argue with it :)
Well, everyone over here is actually creaming over Beats right now, so if there's money in it for me, good times! I'm going to be coming home from school tomorrow with £320 in my pocket, so that can't be bad…

Exactly. I picked up some sennheiser HD595's a while back and near the same time my friend was out looking at Dre's.
I bought mine off an authorized dealer (AD) off ebay (Sennheiser lists all of their AD's on their website along with the companies website URL)(You only get the good warranty from AD's). Totally worth it. They are amazing and the best sennheiser has that doesn't need to be amped.

My cousin bought a pair on boxing day, he loves them but yeah I'm sure they are terribly overpriced for the quality. And Rich thats some phat dough!
5 pairs arrived today. 1 for me, 4 for my mates. No problems, and sound just as good as confirmed real ones.

Because the order was quite expensive, they gave me free premium postage, and they were here much quicker.

I don't see how they can be 'a tiny bit worse' if they are the same thing, just without the logo.

Or you could get equally as good (probably even better) headphones for a tenth of the price – if you don't want to be a complete consumer whore. :D (seriously, what's so good about these headphones except "OH MY GOD IT'S DR DRE"?)
