Used Denon AH-D340 for $96

The Denon AH-D340, part of their Music Maniac line, are currently available in “Used – Very Good” condition for around $96 by Amazon Warehouse Deals. They have three listings at this price, all marked as original damaged packaging with cosmetic imperfections on the item. Since there are three listings, there is the possibility of price pressure triggering further future discounts.

Check the various sellers there, as other marketplace sellers (who are not Amazon Warehouse Deals) offer it. If buying from those sellers, make sure you research them, especially if you are not familiar with them!

Monoprice Sale (includes 8323 colorful earpads for $4.25)

Monoprice has another headphone and earphone sale and at the bottom of the sale, they have replacement earpads for the now semi-legendary 8323 headphones. The replacement earpads are available in four different colors (red, white, grey and the default white) and go for $4.25 each.

What is frustrating with Monoprice is that their free shipping promotions are moving targets which is probably causing them to lose potential impulse purchases.
