how long did massdrop take from usa to australia? had a look on their site just before and they state:
"Customers in the US can expect to receive their product within 2-3 weeks of the drop ending. For those outside the US it usually takes a bit longer since products have to clear customs and be delivered by the local country's own postal service."
that to me sounds like 3-5 weeks for australian delivery.
3-5 weeks Sounds about right
It was around 5 weeks.
You also need deep cryogenic treated cables and an amp worth $1000 in order to "do these justice".

May want to update description to state as the black and white models have sold out, only the lime colored model is available.
Bugger sold out and missed the deal for the second time :( Why do I sleep!
Damn.
Out of all the random headphones I've been buying due to OzBargain, these are the only ones I've actually wanted too.
Got these last time and while they sound ok for the price the build quality isn't as high as say Sennheiser and feel kind of cheap.
I love my Q701's i got from the last deal.
Just letting some of the newer audiophiles here these are definitely not for portable use due to size and open design. The small cable is 2m-3m and you will need an amp unless you have a powerful output (strangely my Sanza clip zip sounded fine with it)
I fell in love with music again but it makes my portable set sound a little dull :(
These are an absolute bargain. As bargain a bargain can get. I got them from the last drop and despite all my expensive collection of headphones, these still have a place. Get in quick though, there's not many stock left.
Did you happen to get the Philips Fidelio X1 or the HIFIMAN he400 posted here last time? If you did, how is the sound compared to these headphones?
These keep popping up form time to time one day im not going to be able to resist!
Wow, that was a good price. Sad I missed this one… :(
Got these on the last drop
Pretty good headphones but u will need a good dac and amp to hear its full potential (someone also quoted u need to run it in for 100hours +)
