Bought these about a year ago for a good price and used them maybe 5-10 hours when first got them. They have been put away unused for the past several months. They come packaged (almost) as new in original box with paperwork, cable, carry pouch, and 1/8" - 1/4" adapter plug.
$45.00 shipped to CONUS.

Bump...
How about $40.00 shipped?
You'd be hard-pressed to find as nice a set of headphones for this price. These are very well made and sound nice. -
They do sound sound great and comfy too. I paid way more than this for mine, this is an excellent deal.Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

Comfort is OK after hours of listening? They look a bit small for over ear, so I'm curious. I think I'll take them if you can confirm.2007 Club Polk Football Pool Champ

I honestly haven't worn them for any great lengths of time - maybe about an hour or so at most. And, it's been a while since I used them. Honestly, I don't find any headphones comfortable after a couple hours. I even have some older over-ear Sennheisers that have the softest velour ear cushions and head cushion. They are very comfortable, but I find even these get uncomfortable after any longer listening sessions. I can say that the cushions on the buckles are very soft leather. I do agree that they look small for over-ear headphones, but IIRC, they fit nicely and were very comfortable for the times I used them.
It's up to you... I wouldn't want to steer you wrong! I'd completely understand if you didn't want to chance it.
@jeremymarcinko - How do you find the comfort of yours after longer periods of time wearing them? -
I never listen for more than a couple hours at a time and they were fine. I have a relatively small head though so the fit was never too tight.Oh, Listen here mister.

Update - I had no PMs or interest in the first 3-4 days, but in the last day, I have 3 people interested in them. To be fair, I'll offer them to the people in the order I heard from them. @jflail2 has first dibs, but I have not gotten a PM. If you're still interested, please let me know. If I don't hear back by tomorrow, Juan @la2vegas is next in line. Third in line is @tophatjohnny.
Thanks!
