    Maybe a member in a neighbouring EU country? If you can convince the seller to ship a little further ...

    5 glass heads? Or 5 pairs of DT48S? In either case, why on earth ...

    Headphones arrived, look kinda cool and sturdy as well. I like the weight. They also work thankfully. Now we need to get them across the sea.
