Refurbished Sennheiser Momentum On-Ears 2.0 starting at $105
The new condition price of the Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 On-Ears is kinda stubborn at $200+, but if you want the 2.0, and don’t object to going refurbished, depending on your color-scheme and “OS” preference, you can get them as low as $105 shipped.
This is a bit complicated because you have to navigate the listings of the four different colors and the operating system (iOS or Android – the cable connection really). This listing shows the lowest prices per color/OS which at the moment are $105 for Apple in Black and $125 for Android in ivory. The seller of both is Agtron (96%, ships from Florida), which describes them as “NEW IN OPEN BOX. STILL IN ORIGINAL RETAIL BOX, AUTHORIZED SENNHEISER DEALER, SHIPS IN 1 DAY”.
The above link only shows you the lowest prices. You can also adjust the settings over there (see screenshot below) by selecting a particular color (first block of thumbnails) or a particular OS (second block of thumbnails)
So, for example, if you select the Apple / Black combo you will see more options.
The above are the refurbished links. Most of the action at Amazon Warehouse Deals happens in the Used tab, which is perhaps why the Used prices by Adgtron are slightly higher.
