I'm not sure I paid that much for my first pair of headsets. Course
they were Sigtronics passive headsets and that was almost 15 years
ago.

You got a good deal. I build my own headsets from David Clark hearing
protectors & parts, & it costs me almost that much just for parts, & the
only aviation parts I use are the mike and boom, earseals, & plug, and I
generally recycle as much of that as I can. My boom is one I liberated
from a military headset over 20 years ago, as is the plug.

I've built a lot of stuff over the years, both electronic and
mechanical...Quite often I could purchase something new for the price
of the parts...some times less. NOw that was not the case when surplus
parts were available.
