Used Beyerdynamic Custom One Plus for $153 (was $133)

The recently released Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro Plus is currently available in “Used – Good” condition for around $153 (was $133) by Amazon Warehouse Deals.

This is a blanket reminder on used offers, prices change faster and quantities are typically small, so both the prices and availability may be different by the time you read this. The text here cannot update automatically when something changes, so the further away you are from blog-posting-date, the higher the chances are that things will be different. I don’t want to post this giant paragraph on every post because it makes reading and skimming more difficult and it can get irritating if you keep seeing the same block of text over and over and over.

Open box NAD VISO HP50 for $220 (was $200)

If you like modest-red headphones, the NAD VISO HP50, another frequently recommended model, is available in “Used – Very Good” (open-box with full warranty per this particular description) condition for $220 (was $200) by ListenUp thru Amazon. They ship from ListenUp so they are not eligible for free 2-day Prime shipping benefits. The other used colors go for $220+. These closed-back over-ears go for $300 in new condition. They average 4.4 out of 5 with nearly 100 customer reviews.

Used Shure SE215 black for $80

The Shure SE-215 are one of the in-ears you often seen in $100-ish recommendation lists and partly because of that, they are mostly “stuck” in price at $100 in new condition. But if you are comfortable with used, you can get them in “Used – Very Good” condition for around $80 by Amazon Warehouse Deals. There are multiple listings, so there is the possibility of price-pressure discounting them some more but this is only speculation since I don’t know how the prices are decided. They average 4.1 out of 5 with over 1500 customer reviews so far. Hype train number of reviews 🙂
