Monoprice 10243 Over-Ears for $20
The Monoprice 10243 over-ear closed-back headphones (not to be confused with the blockbuster 8323 model) are currently on sale for $20 by marketplace sellers with the orders fulfilled by Amazon, which means free 2-day shipping for Prime members. These only have three customer reviews, so perhaps they are better suited for the curious and the explorers 🙂

The Hifiman RE-400i in-ears (lower case “i” for mic/remote) is currently on sale for $55~ with free shipping by BlinQ thru Amazon. This ships directly from BlinQ so it is not eligible for Prime shipping benefits.
A4C coupon gets you 20% sitewide
You are not going to find flagship headphones at A4C, but coupon code WRAPITUP will get you 20% off everything they carry, and everything gets free shipping. You will typically find older models and mostly sub-$100 items. Check their website, especially the Audio category to see what they have.
Shure Headphone Carrying Pouch drops to $6
The nice Shure Headphone Carrying Pouch, model HPACP1, is now down to $6 at Amazon.com by Amazon actual. Not to jinx it, but it’s not part of the Add-On program as of the time of writing, so if you are a Prime member, you can get just one of these and get free 2-day shipping. Non-Prime members have the usual $35+ free super saver shipping.
Limit 30 pouches per customer. This fits the various Shure studio and DJ headphones listed over there, and any other headphone with similar or smaller size. This is a soft pouch, so it won’t protect against rough treatment, but it can keep dust and coffee drops and such away. I’ve been using one for 2+ years and it’s holding up very very well. I will post a review on it once I go into a “writing spree”.
