Beats Solo 3 now available at Costco (don’t know the price)
Costco has a fairly limited selection of headphones, but Apple’s hypetrain has arrived at Costco, the “gloss black” Solo 3 Wireless is available for purchase. This is restricted to members-only. If not a member, you can’t buy it. Unfortunately they don’t show the price to non-members (even if you are a registered shopper with them), so YMMV on what the price might be.
Amazon’s own price on the Gloss Black is $220 while the other colors go for $250, so if I were to guess on the Costco price, is might be in the $220 ballpark (assuming Amazon’s price is a Costco price-match – which is only a guess).
