I called Apple Support several times and they told it was an obsolete product and the customer must buy a compatible earphone from a 3rd party vendor.


I found this earphone working good with my iPod Shuffle 3rd generation:

If you don't reside in that country, share the link with the person who lives there and ask them to buy and ship it to your destination if they can.


Another link (I haven't used it) :

Apple must have handled this better. An apology will not suffice.
