I Have No Title for This Post

Fuck off.
The last time that I had to replace my iPod earphones - and it wasn't too long ago - I had to pay $40. True, it was still a bit pricey for just a pair of earphones but I found it within a reasonable range since it's an Apple product, but holy shit, man. I damn near cried in the store when the salesman showed me the earphones that come with a mic (I think there's a mic?) and a controller. The new earphones, he said, costing $48.
I asked for the ones without the mic and controller but he said they no longer sell that; those are the ones they're selling now and in my head, I was like, Fuck me. $50 for a pair of earphones? Now that's just too much.
To further clarify, to ensure that we're talking about the same pair of earphones here, I mentioned the $39 that I had to pay the other time and he nodded in his stoic demeanour saying, "Yes. We no longer sell that."
Well.
I told him I'm going to think about it.
I'll most probably be back tomorrow and buy one.
Oh God, forgive me for spending so much. :(
