Hi Shashi,
I got it on ebay. It cost 32 pounds 99 pence and postage was free. I paid 
through Paypal but the supplier was:

Hi Robert,
    This DSP300 of yours incorporating a microphone, sounds very
interesting. How much did you pay for it and where did you get it from
please? Is there a website where I could look it up? Many thanks. Best
regards.
    Shashi.

Plantronics supply a range of USB Headsets incorporating a
microphone. I'm
currently using their DSP 300 model and am very pleased with it. I
previously tried about four headsets of the type that plug into the
soundcard, made by different manufacturers and found faults with all
of
them. Using a SoundBlaster Live card, I wasn't able to produce
sufficient
volume from the microphones when recording no matter what I tried.
Another
thing to bear in mind with these types of microphone is: if the
sound on the
computer is built in to the motherboard, avoiding the need for a
soundcard,
noise from fans etc may be picked up by the microphone. This does
not seem
to happen with USB types.
I would suggest you purchase a USB headset. I must have spent sixty
or
seventy pounds on the other type. Money I could have used towards
obtaining
a top of the range USB headset.
Good luck.
Robert.
