Go with the ModMic. I bought a ModMic from the Antlion Audio online shop and received it in two days and I didn't even pay extra for shipping. The sound quality of the ModMic is fantastic, all my friends have commented on how it's really nice when i chat with them on Raidcall. I also have a pair of ATH- M50's and the ModMic works like a charm on these headphones. 

 

EDIT: One of my friends has a Zalman clip-on mic and it sounds like ass.

EDIT 2: The ATH-M50's are a great pair of headphones. You won't regret getting them.

I was planing on getting a pair of ATH-M50 by Audio-Technica and either a clip on mic (Zalman ZM-MIC1 or better) or a ModMic but after seeing the price for a ModMic are they even worth it? I'm mainly going to use it for gaming with my friend on skype. Also what is the quality of the ModMic
