I am looking for a headset that has a decent mic and big since I have a very large head. The build quality needs to be good and durable (1 year +). I live in the US, so it needs to be able to be bought in the US.

Zm-Mic1 with headphones of your choice: http://www.amazon.com/Zalman-Zm-Mic1-Sensitivity-Headphone-Microphone/dp/B00029MTMQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1414444518&sr=8-1&keywords=zalman+mic

Maybe HARX700's? http://www.amazon.com/JVC-HARX700-Precision-Sound-Headphones/dp/B0013OWPV4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1404882376&sr=8-1

This is $50 and from a reputible brand. I can't say much for the build quality since it's a $50 headset, but that goes for almost all headsets in that price range. Good luck OP.

Kingston HyperX is the only good value headset. It's $80. If you want something less then you have to go headphones and a mic instead. Superlux headphones with the zalman clip on would be good. 

My personal rig - 4790k 4.8Ghz, Asus Z97 Pro (wi-fi ac), Corsair Dominator Plat 4x8GB, SLI GTX 1080 TI FE, Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, Crucial MX100 512GB, EVGA G3 1000W, and cooled by a hardline liquid cooling loop.

I agree with the hyper x 100%. Its worth the extra $30 for a headset to last for years. I hear the zalman can be pretty sensitive.

It's terrible. Sounds bad and breaks after like a month.
