Amazon Warehouse Deals launches “Annual Savings Event”
If you are a fan of used gear, Amazon Warehouse Deals (now with their fancier sounding “Amazon Warehouse” name and green name) has launched an Annual Savings Event sale, and among the items participating in the sale are over 5,000 headphones. I will price-check them when I can find time to dive into the Warehouse. In the mean time, you can search for your favorite brands or models using the search box over there (it has a custom search box), or filter by the various categories on the left-hand side of their website.
There’s no coupon, and no in-cart discount as far as I can tell – the price you see is the price you pay.
