maybe use the skullcandy LIFETIME warranty?

I completly agree. The sound quality is nice, the rubbers generally fit all ears, but they dont last at all. Im a sucker and always buy these cause they are cheap and look cool... Gone through 4 sets and i think the record time of not blowing a bud out was... 3 weeks. I don listen to music 4-8 hours a day though so... Maybe if your a casual listener though it would be better for you then me.

Oh and when i say the sound quailty is nice i mean that for $30 it is nice, Comparing it to sony's $40 or $60 pair, these don't even come close, well worth the extra $10 or $30. And Sony seems to last long in my experiences (2-3 months)
