Last year someone gave me a pair of Sennheiser headphones—dead ass gave them to me. I was ballin’. I got to be a homeless person with an iPhone 12 and a pair of Sennheisers. And then my idiot friend set off a series of unfortunate events that resulted in the loss of my headphones, along with everything else I owned at the time.

So last month when this very sweet devout Christian saw a comment of mine about being a homeless drug addict, and sent me $300. I bought a new pair of Sennheisers on Mercari. I’m pretty sure it was the same model even.

I finally got around to checking my mail and—the headphones are fucked off. They won’t pair or fucking anything.

I had to fight the screaming urge to slam them on the ground.

Any chance they just need a harder reset of some kind? Bluetooth stuff has annoying interfaces like "tap three times and hold" and things like that.

okay bear with me but you could, MAYBE, buy an identical pair on Amazon, and then when they arrive return the broken pair for a refund? idk if Amazon is smart enough to ever refuse shit like that, they seemed not to be

yes obviously this would require you to have the $$$ to make it happen, but, it might be an option rather than having some dud headphones

if you do that make sure it says it's sold/shipped by amazon and eligible for free returns or it might be a pain in the ass

If I were gonna spend money on another pair it would be a different model I think.

I mean the idea would be to replace the ones you got that are broken for free
