Amazon UK is having a great promotion on Sennheiser Headphones.

Speaking from a Singaporean perspective, add it to the cart and the VAT will be subtracted, so the price including shipping is a mere S$248 . That's a huge 38% off the S$399 price tag in Singapore. Did I also mention about the 2 year international warranty (except US and Australia which has different warranty conditions) that Sennheiser offers?   So What are you waiting for?
