It's also warmer/more humid right now, though - I only ever get shocks from headphones in the winter, never in summer.

Yeah, "expedited shipping", if you're not paying for DHL or the like, generally just means that they upgrade it from Royal Mail or PostNL to something like SingPost, where it has less distance to travel before it gets to the re-routing center.

I just received those pistons from a different deal and don't think they are as good as the previous version. There's more cord noise while walking and the volume controls which are located at the neck level aren't as easily accessible as before.

Anyone figure out how to rewind music with these? I can double press the middle button to fastforward, but there's no triple click to rewind like on apple buds.

Or do I have to disable Google now voice recognition or something (because holding down the middle button brings up Google now voice recog right now)

I bought these from amazon a couple of weeks ago... mainly bought them with the intention of making calls with them but I was surprised how well they sound. I usually hate earbuds.

Anyone know what tracking this is? PostNL doesn't mention tracking format starting with L, and it's been marked as shipped for 12 days now.
I paid 3$ extra for "express shipping" and I'm getting less info on my shipment than had I not paid and gotten the typical China Post tracking.

It's more the last 2 characters that tell you who shipped it. If it ends in NL it's PostNL. Royal Mail ends in GB. China Post is CN. Etc. But the best site to use to figure out exactly what company it is, is 17track.net - that site recognizes every national postage system, and will determine the source country and destination country, and use both country's tracking systems.

It's just digits after the L.
17track.net can't recognize the tracking number.

Maybe I should contact allbuy's support since the tracking isn't working at all.

Oh yeah, if it's all digits then I have no idea what it is. You could try packagetrackr.com, to see if it can auto-detect the carrier, but it's not all *that* smart really. Best thing to do is probably contact Allbuy to figure out exactly what shipping method they used.
