Very disappointing - Walkers Digital HD Elite Game Ear 40dB Hearing Enhancement

I purchased two of these a year ago but did not try using one until this month due to working out of town the past year. While attempting to attach the sound tube to the ear hook, the ear hook broke off of the body of the unit. I contacted Optics Planet, who said they could do nothing since the unit was out of warranty. I contacted GSM Outdoors, apparently the parent company of Walkers Game Ear, who offered to try to fix it for $69.99 plus tax and shipping. I declined, since I think I have already invested enough money in a defective unit I was never able to use even once. I had previously heard good things about Walkers Game Ears, I can only assume that they have now changed to inferior quality Chinese manufacturing for their products. I will not use them again.
Pros: broke before I could determine any
Cons: broke while attempting to use the first time
