This is the path I walked before finally getting Apple AirPods. I felt the hot glare of Sam Vimes on my neck as I discarded cheaper crap I tried to save money with repeatedly.

I’ve followed the opposite path because I’m constantly losing my filthy expensive high-end earbuds; after misplacing the second pair downgrading seemed like the financially prudent move.

Unrelated to the above: You really are a worst-case scenario, aren't you?

I think three pairs would be a worst-case scenario.

It'd certainly be an awkward poker hand.

I used to lose pens all the time, until I bought myself my first serious one in the early 1990s. Since then, only one has been lost, and that one was destroyed in a freak accident.

That said, earbuds are something I DON’T buy anymore. Besides the fact that I don’t find them comfortable, since almost all of them are wireless/bluetooth, they’re so much easier to lose.
