It's tied to e-mails... So only those of you got the e-mail can used it. Thanks for posting anyway, happy new year!

These headsets are woth every penny. Just as good as the beats by Dre sets if you choose to use them with other devices other than the ps3.

This is what I'm wondering as well if best buy will still price match after holidays

Should work according to bb website

So do you just use them wired with the iPhone? Wired with Vita?

Some have said they work with just about anything (iPhone, iPad, PC etc).

How do you use it with your ipod if the headset can't use bluetooth? :/ and seems like a great deal thanks op!

Edit: Nevermind, they include a cable :p

Is this going to be the msrp for the headset or just a temporary drop?

You just plug the usb to a power source and the cable to your speakers, tv or whatever you want to hear and you can listen to the audio without problems. Playing Forza Horizon and the Witcher 2 with this makes it pretty intense

I got these for my brother for Christmas at Best Buy for $129.99, and they are definitely worth the $99 price tag. It uses a USB dongle for the Wireless and then you get a wired audio jack cable to use it with any other device that uses the audio jack. However, with the audio jack, I'm not sure if you can use the Mic or not, I'm betting that you can't.

Either way, these thing sound incredible. The bass is pretty powerful too, but I wouldn't recommend it for listening to regular music, sometimes it's way off.

can confirm they work with 360. also, these fit rather tight, and i have a shaved head so they hurt lol. i ended up returning mine and getting the older ones instead.

Oh good, that was enough to get me to stop agonizing over the choice.

You can also get $20 off if you sign up for vme visa payment option. Only good for new customers. Makes them $79.99. Edit, Nevermind it's only valid on purchases of $199 or more.

Thanks OP! Been looking for a pair of these for a while now and they never went on sale during Black Friday.

i would have bought this immediately if it was like a week ago. Why put this deal out after christmas!? I really want these. I'll wait for another deal on this later on. Thanks OP.

Good deal but lack of Bluetooth kills it for me. With Bluetooth being key on the ps3 and vita, I'm surprised its missing. Would love to use these sans cord with iPhone/mp3 and vita.

Well they are not that bad after they get a little loose, but if you normally do long gaming sessions they might be a pain if you wear glasses. Probably the pressure added to the temples

I was denied a price match at Best Buy with the manager saying they only price match Amazon.com and no other websites (only retail stores) and only sometimes for Amazon. This seems pretty bogus since I am pretty sure I have PM Newegg at Best Buy before. Also, I didn't go to the location I normally go to. I thought the price match policy was pretty universal now, though. Didn't Best Buy make some big announcement about it a month or two ago?

After checking, looks like the BB/newegg.com price matching was only during the holiday special (til Dec 24).
