Headphone for Library Internet use.

Does anyone out there have a source for cheap headphones or ear buds? After fighting with headphones for ten years we have decided to quit supplying them and offer them for sale.

I buy ours at Dollar Tree for $1 each. Definitely not quality products, but cheap. And since they aren't quality, they don't disappear as fast.

If you have a dollar store in your area (dollar tree or something similar), you can purchase the headphones for $1 each. I use petty cash to purchase. Then we sell them for $2 each and use the profits to purchase more. I was not able to find them any cheaper anywhere else.

We use some mid-grade ones from DEMCO. Not cheap ($9.49 each), but we check them out (not barcoded - we just take name and phone number). We have about 10 units available at any given time - we've replaced the equivalent of each of them 1x in 5+ years - about half to walkaways, half to wearing out. We've had some mistaken walkaways returned with a simple phone call. They're reasonably sturdy, with a volume control on the wire, and cleanable (with alcohol swab) "leatherette" ear covers. They come in individual ziploc bags - we keep them in the bags with their checkout sheet at the service desks. We label them with a Sharpie (plenty of space on the headset) - they have a letter designation, which matches the checkout sheet. Very simple, but we've never felt the need to get more complicated. DEMCO - www.demco.com - item # P14964060 We're a mid-sized, suburban public library. Good luck! It looks like other folks have given you some good ideas. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Louise E.
