Thread URL: My PIF for getting the G19 from this here thread..
Item: Corsair Vengeance 1500 V2 Dolby 7.1 USB Headset *takes a breath*
Age: Almost 9 years.. I bought them new from Landmark PC back in 2014.
Warranty: That expired about 8 years back.
Condition: Pretty damn good for 9 years old.. Proof of life in this Google Photos album.
Location: Merrivale, Howick (about 10 min North of PMB)
Shipping: I can, if I have to.. but the original packaging is long gone, so I would prefer to hand them over in person. I do have wheels, so I don't mind meeting up somewhere.

For the super techy fans, this is the "CA-9011124-WW" model, but the "global" Corsair website seems to be down for maintenance at the moment (will check again in the morning). They are identical to this CA-9011124-EU model though.

With regards to their condition.. I have cared for my black and blue babies as well as I possibly could. But obviously there are a few age-related "issues".. The plastic does squeak (creak?) a little though, more-so on the left where the earpiece connects. It's not terrible, but could get annoying if you tend to move your head around a lot..

Electronically, they are sound.. :p (sorry, couldn't resist.) They are in perfect working order, the earpiece speakers and fold-out microphone are still clear, and the inline volume control buttons still give satisfyingly solid clicks.

FAIR WARNING: These things are stupendously loud. No joke.. With the volume increments in steps of 2 in Windows, I literally use them on 2 (maybe 4) for music, and then crank it up to about 20 to 30 for gaming, depending on the game. Also, it has a 3 meter long braided USB cable, thanks Corsair. :|

I will be a little sad to see them go... But I find myself doing more woodwork than gaming these days, so these are gathering a little too much dust these days.

So who wants 'em then...?
 
I'll take them so DIBS, but not sure the value to re-PIF.
Hmm.. Since this is my first return PIF, I'm not really sure what to suggest.

If it helps at all, they were a touch under R1000 brand new, 9 years ago.... As for current-day value though, honestly not sure. My view of them comes with a healthy dose of sentimental value.
 
Well I'll look after them nicely and keep the treatment as you've done. I can't re-PIF the sentimental value because the item I will PIF I've never used.
😊😊😊
 
There should be an award for best PIF background story. Some have been excellent, as is the background you gave. 👍
 
Alrighty, well if you're happy to let a courier get them from me to you, I can make a plan to package them securely.

I'll drop you a direct message to work out some details.
 
Quick update: @greatnation will be taking the Corsairs, we've made plans to get the headset over to CT.

I'lll keep the thread open for the moment, and close it once everyone is happy. 👍
