You are bidding/buying 5 pairs of earplugs. ( That is ten (10) individual ear plugs). If you pay using Paypal, and pay for the item immediatly, I will throw in an extra pair for free!) Each set of ear plugs come in their on sealed poly bag that has a perforated edge so you can tear them open very easily. If you need an odd amount, please email me and let me know how many and I can put up an auction for you. These ear plugs are great to wear at night if your mate snores or you just live in a noisy place. They block out just enough to make it quiet, but if there was an extremely loud noise such as a scream or your dog barking to alert you or a fire alarm going off, you can still be awakened, which is a good thing! They are very comfortable in the ears and don't make them hurt the next day. They are bright so if they fall on the floor they are easy to find. If you need them for noise reduction at work, here is more info: The hot look in comfortable hearing protection. LASER-LITE (NRR 32) is the multi-color earplug that workers love to use. The non-irritating, non-allergenic self-adjusting foam recovers to fit virtually any ear canal. Laser-Lite’s new formula gives it an extremely high noise rating, without affecting its unsurpassed comfort. And its value remains. LASER-LITE is ideal for that portion of the population with smaller ear canals, including women and children, rolling extremely small. Attenuation tested in accordance with ANSI S3.19-1974. Magenta/Yellow color, packed by pairs in poly bags. I prefer paypal, but would except a check or money order. If paying by check or money order, you must contact me within 3 days of winning auction to let me know you are using that form of payment. Thank you.
