Saw someone mention this on Whirlpool, so I decided to check it out myself. They're PC only, so they're no good for Xbox or PS3 users. I don't know how good these are sound-wise, but TDK is a good brand and $5 isn't a lot of money, so even if they're absolute rubbish, it's no big loss. They'd be more that good enough for Skype/Msn.

It's my first bargain submitted here so be nice. Please don't start a Dick Smith flame war or anything.

Edit: Turns out that Dick Smith have started their online sale a day early, so there's a whole heap of discounted games as well.

Update: Deal has expired, so it's been marked as such

    You might want to put 'PC only' in the title

  • Thinkswithelbow on 10/04/2012 - 10:06

    with these can i just plug in via USB and not worry about the other two plugs?

    Might be good for my mums laptop and Skyping.

    • Mr White on 10/04/2012 - 10:11

      The USB plug only provides power for the headset. You have to use the other two plugs as well.

        Are you sure? If it say USB gaming headset I don't think you need both, I think should be either one.

        Anyone own one can confirm?

          I got one before Christmas for about $50. The USB is to power the extra bass effects or you can use an included battery case if you don't want to use up a USB port.

        • superforever on 10/04/2012 - 11:10
          +1

          So if I don't want the extra bass effects can I just use the USB for talking?

        • Ughhh on 11/04/2012 - 20:51

          the USB is to power the headset for extra bass (it vibrates), not involved in sound and mic - also not required if your just chatting.

  • dancube on 10/04/2012 - 10:08

    Good deal, need a new one of these. Just ordered.

    Damnit I hate Dick Smith… but I had to buy one of these anyway. Been looking for a cheap headset for a while so $5 is pretty much impossible to pass up.
    I find solace in the fact that DS must be making a loss on these.

    • MadMaxHeadroom on 10/04/2012 - 11:11
      +1

      At $5 with free postage, I would guess that they are pretty much giving them away, and possibly even subsidising the cost of postage.

  • txn25 on 10/04/2012 - 10:38

    Yes! Very happy. Was in urgent need of some headphones.

  • cyssero on 10/04/2012 - 10:42

    Great deal, last time they were here they were $40.00 (from RRP of $89.95): http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/57938

    Will use for VoIP, been mucking around with BT adapter and BT headset but this is much better.

    • [Deactivated] on 10/04/2012 - 10:54

      TDK says their RRP is $60. lol

      • cyssero on 10/04/2012 - 11:23

        Must be $60 then, but back in Nov they were pitching these as $90 headphones.

  • kickmiass on 10/04/2012 - 10:43

    Yay, impulse buying..

    Rkn they are trying to get rid of everything game related by the looks of it.. firesale all their stuff..

    still, can't pass up 5$..need a spare temporary headphones whilst i am overseas or if my good pair break.. which they did yesterday =_=

    Apparently they were $39.94 (Save $50). So $89.94!!
    Bought one… just for the heck of it !

    EDIT: Extra one-year warranty costs $17. Bwahahaa

    • udyz on 10/04/2012 - 11:49

      buy 3 more for that price and i guess you will be covered for a long time!

    • Krabboss on 10/04/2012 - 10:48

      Well today is one of the days DS managers said they would continue flushing out old stock. There's a few other things on the website that have just dropped in price a fair bit, so I imagine that's what it is.

      Dude! Find someone else to do that, and you can combine your monies for a cone at Maccas!

      • hashtagbargain on 10/04/2012 - 18:20

        10 cents more and that gets you 2 cones from maccas.

        Without the 10 cents, you get only 1 cone from hungry jacks.

        So choose your investment options wisely :)

      Got the same thing, so put through another order. Just found out the first one worked even though it errored. Have 2 payments in Paypal and on DSE website.

      At least its only $5, and not paying for shipping at all, let alone twice.

  • [Deactivated] on 10/04/2012 - 10:57

    Isn't it wrong to say this doesn't work with PS3 or Xbox? If you have a home theatre plugged into the game console couldn't you just plug it into the home theatre's USB and 3.5mm jack. Couldn't you also order a PS3 audio to 3.5mm jack to also solve that problem and plug it to the PS3 USB. Don't both solutions provide power to the headphones?

    • bigosmallo on 10/04/2012 - 11:00

      The headphones also take 2x AAA batteries.

    • z00m on 10/04/2012 - 11:03

    • Mr White on 10/04/2012 - 11:05
      +1

      The Q & A section on the website says they're PC only, so I said it to be safe. I guess it could work if you have a home theater, but a lot of people don't and I'd prefer to avoid the wrath of angry OzBargainers.

      • Noraneko on 10/04/2012 - 11:12
        +2

        I'd assume that it would work with any 3.5 jack (With batteries/USB plugged in) but as the PS3 and X360 don't have the jacks they will not work out of the box without additional hardware. Thus they state it doesn't work to save people complaining that, when they buy it and plug the USB, they get nothing.

  • Explosions_Hurt on 10/04/2012 - 10:59

    • wog_ta on 10/04/2012 - 11:01
      +2

      why would you get warranty when the warranty cost more then the unit and they are only obliged to give you the cost of the item back when their is a fault… right?

      • [Deactivated] on 10/04/2012 - 11:52

        Because if you purchase 4 of them, they might all break in one year. Highly unlikely, but you never know…

    • johnno07 on 10/04/2012 - 11:03
      +4

      WHYYYYYYYYY? Why would you pay for 340% of the purchase price for a warranty? The headphones would have break and be replaced four times for your warranty to be worth anything! Actually, as you have bought two, you would need to go through seven broken headsets! Are you mad?

    These appear to have been over $90 originally and were selling for $40 months ago through DSE a few months ago via Oz bargains deals-Seems like a great deal and has noise cancelling as well. I wonder if they could be used on flights-Does anyone know?

    • kickmiass on 10/04/2012 - 11:13

      pc only, as in the title

      • superforever on 10/04/2012 - 11:14

        Also at the top some people said the USB is only for power the bass and cannot use USB only for sound and mic.

        Any idea?

        • KevinFine on 13/04/2012 - 12:57

          That's correct

    • bym on 10/04/2012 - 11:16

      The noise cancelling is for the mic. Nothing to do with the headphones.
