Hi guys  and girls,

 

I'm searching for cheap headset with mic. I want good quality to!

I do youtube and I want making commentaries with my headset.

 

After searching I found this: Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset

It is €29 in Netherlands.

 

My budget is around €25, but €29 is ok.

 

I live in The Netherlands by the way.

 

 

I hope you can help me.

He desires it to be a headset. He doesn't explicitly state it must be a headset.

You can find cheap good ones on amazon if you don't mind buying them used. Here is an example. (a bit above your budget but you see where I am going with this)

 

 

http://www.amazon.com/Plantronics-GameCom-Closed-Ear-Gaming-Headset/dp/B001E45XT4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1282080142&sr=8-1

Not Amazon, because my parents don't like buy form international site. That's why I can't buy games at Kinguin. My parents think that is a group of scammers :/

 

And it's a little bit expensive, sorry

 

But thanks for you help.

Why don't your parents like international sites? Amazon is surely not a scam artist.

A friend of mine in the Netherlands owns that specific headset and although the audio quality is not fantastic, it will do just fine for gaming and listening to music. The mic is great and over skype it sounds just as good as a professional grade mic (thats mostly due to skype though). I really reccomend it!

you can always buy from www.amazon.de (the german amazon site (neighbour country)) shipping price is really great to belgium (so probably to netherlands as well)

edit: you can always use google chrome and translate to dutch ;)

There is no such thing as cheap and high quality, you can pay too much for shit or you can pay next to nothing for low quality but you will never get high quality for cheap. 

 

For cheap I recommend the MS lifechat 3000.  Low quality sound, mediocre quality mic, but mine has lasted 4 years of physical abuse at the hands of two most destructive boys I know.

But is the Creative Fatal1ty Gaming Headset decent headset?

dunno. I have never used one.  If you want me to guess, I would say on the balance of probability it works just as well as any other $20 headset.

Are we questioning his way of life or trying to help?

Although amazon is pretty legit

I question everything that I'm not sure of or that I'm curious about. Doesn't matter what it is or who it is.
