Brandnew Sheepskin Slippers

Antje from Linwood

The new iconic shape of true wireless earbuds
Galaxy Buds Live’s eye-catching design stands out, even inside your ear. Reflecting the curves of the ear and face for a natural look, they're polished off with a glossy finish and even come together with a jewelry box-inspired case — to fit in your hand when on the go.

These are an unwanted Christmas present that I just don't use.

Also includes brand new soft silicone case.
