Inexpensive headset needed

I keep (kept) an inexpensive....OK cheap...set of headsets in the hanger for the rare occasions I had a fourth person in the plane.

Well last weekend the one hoss shay of headsets disintegrated. So many parts failed it just is not worth the time to try to piece it all back together.

Any suggestions for an inexpensive set that will see limited duty.

There are some inexpensive new headsets being offered these days.
Headsets Inc has one for $119 , also has inexpensive ANR models:

Thanks HotRod, I had forgotten about Headsets Inc. I had a set of their ANR Headsets and other than being a bit heavy due to the battery being in the ear cups they worked well. I can attest to their Lifetime Warranty being honored.

I had Headsets Inc covert my DC 13.4 to ANR last year, and like it. Maybe as good as a Bose or Lightspeed, maybe not, but way less money.
