Reviews on these headphones, or recommendations?

Awhile ago I saw these headphones in a headphone thread -

Philips Customer Design Headband Headphones SHL8800/28
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130457082258&rvr_id=175330760699&crlp=1_263602_304642&UA=WXS%3F&GUID=f510988912b0a036617068c0ff8723d3&itemid=130457082258&ff4=263602_304642

They look cool, but I don't know if they are any good. Reviews for these are non-existent, so I'm skeptical.

Since you probably don't know about these headphones, could you guys recommend some good over-the-ear headphones or buds?
I'm willing to spend $20 ~ $30.

Thanks again

Sweet ign. And why does amazon.uk always have reviews
Those headphones look nice, but it says the functions work with ipods. I use my trusty sony ericsson phone

Also, Koss portapros are kick ass, but I don't think I can stand wearing them in public....
I laugh whenever I see people with them

Also, if you're looking for a solid competitor in that pricerange, you can look into the sony mdr v250-300's
Although the bass isn't too strong, I feel like the sound quality is pretty nice for their cost.

philips shl 9600 look like they have better build quality and I've heard that they are not so "only bass" as these headphones are
But I've never used either, so I don't have any personal warnings or remarks. Not to mention that the shl9600 is only available in Europe
