Used AKG K551 closed-back for $92 [was $97]

There’s a lot of action among the AKG K5** line-up. If you are set on the K551, you can get it in “Used – Good” condition for $92 [was $97~] or “Used – Very Good” for $98 [was $104~] by Amazon Warehouse Deals… Price Updated here 9/20/15…

There’s only one “Good” condition listing, but there are many “Very Good”, so there’s a possibility of further discounting, especially if the “Good” get sold, so the “bottom” can fall out of the “Very Good” condition. Of course these are not stocks, so their prices don’t really follow those patterns most of the times. Long story short, I can’t really tell for sure 🙂
