why have these gone from $20 to $60 in less than one year?

this model is discontinued and no more available from Sony - I got this from retail for a very high price

Nobody has found a good alternative to these? I used to pay $10 and now they're $94.99?! Come on Sony! They used to only last about a year but I had no problem spending $10 a year on them.

I've had these for about 8 years, and I've had to replace the cables about once a year. I suppose I should invest in a higher quality cable, but it's cheaper just to keep buying the more affordable replacement cables. It is pretty obnoxious, given how expensive they were initially. It seems Sennheiser went cheap with their cabling with these particular cans.

In 2012, this exact item and qty was being sold on Amazon for $21.99. In 2013, I paid $19.59. In 2014 it has skyrocketed in price. Still a good deal at $46? Possibly, but something has changed either with the supplier or the demand for the product. Kills me to pay $46 for something when it was available for 1/2 the price previously.

I have definitely seen them cheaper in the last couple months. Keep checking back. I do love these stackers though!!

oh, i just looked at them again and they've gone way down in price.....i would say go for it. I paid the higher price or that's what I remember....bought them about a year ago.

I was wondering why myself as well. I've seen them as low as $16. Yeah the price fluxuation is rediculous. I'm sure they have their reasons, but it is irritating.

There is some independent seller (for some reason?) selling for that price, but through ReSqueeze and Amazon they are $14.99 :)

The price has gone up dramatically for some reason. I purchased these in June of 2013 from the same seller (Green Stuff Only) here on Amazon for $16.49 with Amazon Prime. Now the same seller is selling them for $29.99. I have no idea what could have driven the price up almost double over last year. I was hoping to buy more but am looking for alternatives at the moment.

I have never seen the $20.00+ set. It's possible they are being sold by a specialty store, so the price is higher. That is why I prefer Amazon; I can often find the same item for a lower price.

They have raised their price to $9. I buy these a lot for running, but the quality of the connection piece is poor on every set. I'm on my 7th. You have to also pay for your own shipping to send it back to them. So with Amazon selling at $15, you're really only saving a couple bucks with their warranty, but you also have to deal with a long wait period. I just send in 3 at a time and cut a check for $27. They will inevitably fail on you, and it won't take a year to do so.

The message changed from "we don't know when or if these will be available" to "sign up when these become available", so I am taking that as a good sign. It appears that these have been a sales success, so I would think that they will be back. I do hope they drop the price back down though. They recently raised the price to $99 a pair. They are worth that, but they are no longer a great deal at that price.

I can only assume that it is due to supply and demand. The new ones are $135+

Yes, Laurie, they were 16.95! I went to reorder and now 59.95. I thought it a mistake and used the question section, hoping for a correction. Can you believe somebody voted negative for the comment?? Perhaps not a mistake, as I see your comment dated on June 13, 2014 and today is July 28, 2014. Such a bummer.

I'd be willing to guess that Behringer buys these same units from the same factory, puts their name on them and marks them up $20. Then again this is only my guess.- Jay

Um, why did these go up about $12 in less than 30 days? Yeah, I'll definitely be buying elsewhere!

Yeah, what's with the price hike? These were like $6 or $7 a week ago. Amazon's pricing sucks.
