Not sure of postage costs as it differs for different states.
Pretty good price for these, I've been waiting for a deal on these for a while.

Excuse my ignorance, but will these puppies work with my Xbox one. Don't need the chat, just for audio. Thanks
System requirements are listed as Windows 8, Windows 7 and Windows Vista so looks like it's only officially supported on a PC. Probably won't work on the Xbox One.
"Does G35 work with video game consoles?
Consoles like Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 do not output in-game audio through their USB ports, therefore G35 is not compatible with those consoles."Source: http://blog.logitech.com/2009/05/06/logitech-g35-headset-und…
I've used a Logitech G330 USB headset with my PS3 with no problems.
Logitech G330 uses a 3.5mm input and mic jack plugs to USB adaptor that's probably how it's working on the PS3. The Logitech G35 however is straight out USB all the way. Requires an inbuilt windows driver to operate.
The G430 is a better option compared to the G330 (and maybe better than the G35 because it's cheaper and has a 3.5MM connection). It's got the same headphone and microphone sound quality as the G35. And the same USB adapter as the G330.
In other words for a Windows PC only.
I can vouch for the G35 headset.
Very good sound and VOIP.
You can also have your mates in stitches when you change your voice to Chipmunk or SoundWave (Transformer).
Are they comfortable for long periods of use? I find lots of headsets are too tight, give me headaches.
They are adjustable of course, my head is not bigger than normal so I can only say it is not tight.
However, in summer you can get sweaty ears.
I have found them to be pretty comfortable over long periods, I wouldn't say they're tight, but everyone is different so YMMV.
I find them quite hot when used for long periods of time. Surprisingly good mic though, bought a refurbished pair for about $50 a while ago as a cheap temporary solution and still use them.
Decent sound from these, but unless they've released an updated version the headband is kinda balls. It's quite floppy and won't hold the set on your head that well as you move around (this is anecdotal from my friend who got a pair). The G930 on the other hand has a much better headband, still very comfortable but it holds the set on your head quite firmly. I've got the G930, it's basically a wireless version of the G35. Worth the extra $30 or whatever vs. the G35 that it normally is.
Excuse my ignorance, but how can headphones be 7.1 channels when there are only two earpads? Are there multiple speakers inside each earpad and if so which side gets the .1 sub?
"Virtual 7.1" - 2 physical speakers, software emulates the 7.1.
Spot on…it's all about the timing.
Since we only have two ears, our brain uses comparison of the timing of live sounds arriving at each ear to extrapolate real-world location in 3D…this can quite easily be mimicked by software to emulate position within the virtual soundfield.
Some cram 4 or 5 speakers into the housing, not necessarily a good thing having 4 little cheap speakers and a cheap sub each side instead of 1 quality one.
Had two pairs break at the swivel point on each ear. Had a few returned at work the same way.
Sound is ok, boomy and boxy. Mic is exceptional for the price. They gave me headaches for long use.Mixed bag for me but I would recommend them at this price if you need a headset for VOIP whilst gaming.
$105 when I look now - I assume this deal it over
Good price.
Good functions.
Sound is good enough, though I struggled with in some BF3 multilevel maps locating the sound source.
The fake-leather material used on the ear and headphone padding started to deteriorate / fall to pieces in about 12months. I still used the headphones for years after.
The headband can also give you a serious bad hair situation.
Cheapest on staticice is $108 so to me looks like a good deal.
