Hello neighbors, my name is Maximus. I recently got a new headset from my parents that I don’t need as I have just got another new one.

The one I would like to sell is brand new and unopened, has a 2 year warranty and retails at 160-170 depending on retailer so buying it at 120 or near offer would be a bargain.

If you have any questions or queries please feel free to ask.

Thank you Maximus W

Price: $120
