I got this new from Amazon. I wanted something cheap and wireless that would work for in-game chat for online multiplayer on the PS3. This works well, there is a good bit of volume adjusting between the in-game volume and on the headset to get where you can hear what's going on without someone screaming in our ear. When you get the in-game microphone/PS3 system volume setting right the headset will pick up your voice, and any sounds you make (coughing, sneezing, etc) with out picking up other people in the room-it will pick up your cute, cool, or annoying cell phone ringtone from across the room though. The only complaint I have is the noises that come out of it if you forget to take it off and go too far away from the PS3 while the headset if still on.
