All shipping for headphone is free since two months ago, IIRC. Head-Direct is a Head-fi.org sponsor and I know the owner (Nankai @ Head-fi) quite well even though I never met him personally. In fact, I just recently bought a set of filter from him and it is currently on route to me, not to mention I received RE0 about a month ago. His website might be a bit outdated but the service is good.
