I saw these new in China for not much more than $100/pair.

I certainly could not guarantee that they weren't some kind of very
very soon to be lethal less-durable knock-offs, but they looked legit
to me and worked just fine at the store.

Shipping would certainly be less than $200, but could take a while.

I've been nursing a very slow to heal broken arm for four months
already, so I think having said that I'll now bow out of this little
club!
