Hello!
Since your skullcandy headphones are brand new, you could get the warranty.
Warranty covered one of two ways, Aggressive Listening, which is defined as:
Aggressive Listening: Skullcandy products that fail
or break due to a crazy crash on the mountain or a violent head-banging
session... or any other reason that is not a product defect, as per skullcandy "
we will
still hook you up! Send in whatever remains of your product, and we will
send you a coupon good for 50% off any product in our Online Shop."
or
Defective Product Replacement: Which is defined as
any Skullcandy product that is still in one piece and not working
properly or any product damaged in shipping. In this case you will
receive a brand new replacement product at no charge. In either case you
will need to complete their
warranty form.
Please click here and fill out the
warranty form,
after you have completed all the fields as requested and submit your
information, you will receive an email with instructions on how to ship
your product to Skullcandy. After they receive your product they will either ship
you a brand new pair under the Defective Product Replacement warranty or
