[DEAD] Prime Only: On-Going Round-up of Amazon Warehouse Deals Used Coupon Specials

I forgot to check if the coupon was working yesterday, but as of 7/13/16, this coupon is no longer working. It will be interesting to see how quickly Amazon Warehouse Deals “refills” with used headphones and if/when we’ll get the 20% off again… All the sales below have expired…

20% off Amazon Warehouse Deals with coupon (PRIME ONLY)

If you are an Amazon Prime member, coupon code WDEARLY or WDEARLY20 (I forgot which one works) gets you 20% off Used purchases at Amazon Warehouse Deals. From the tests I made by putting things in the shopping cart, the coupon only works for items sold by Amazon Warehouse Deals (AWD) actual, not for items sold by marketplace sellers through AWD. Search for your headphones of interest there, or browse by category.

I’ll post additional posts if I find any crazy things that got discounted while multi-tasking other things. You can also check the previous Used posts here to see if any of them would be even more tempting with the coupon.

UPDATE: the coupon works for multiple items in your shopping cart, it’s not one item per customer!

PS: The coupon expires by Prime Day… I don’t know when the coupon expires…

Sony MDR-1ADAC Headphones for $340 w/coupon [MF Rewards]

We continue highlighting some of the potentially interesting headphone sales using the Musician’s Friend Rewards member coupon code EXTRA15, this time it is the Sony MDR-1ADAC Headphones in either silver or black going for $400 before coupon. With the coupon, the price drops to $340. As the DAC in the name hints at, these have a built-in DAC. The shipping estimate for this is early July 2016.

This can be had for less if you don’t need to buy a new condition model with the Sony USA warranty. See next post for more.

The previously mentioned Musician’s Friend coupon promotion for their Rewards members with coupon code EXTRA15 also includes the Fostex TH-900 Premium headphones. Their regular price is $1300, the coupon drops them to $1104.

When you drill down the PRO Audio categories, a total of 71 headphones are eligible for this promotion. I will go through them and price-check and post separate posts for any that stand out.

One unknown in this sale is that the Fostex T50RP Mark III Semi-Open Studio headphones are part of the promotion. They go for $160 before coupon. They also have a $50 mail-in rebate. Looking at the Mail-In Rebate Terms (see annotated screen-shot below), I am not sure whether the coupon would invalidate the rebate eligibility:

NOTE: I do not know when the coupon code expires…

The coupon expires 5/18/16.

The outside box is very studio-ish but they make up for it in accessories, an extra set of earpads and a carrying case and two cables (short and long). As you can see from the pictures, these are not small 🙂

These creatures average 4.6 out of 5 with over 90 customer reviews at amazon.com where they also have 30 questions peer-answered.

Symphonized DRM Wood In-Ears for $11 after coupon

Symphonized brand headphones are often featured in the Amazon Gold Box deals, but if when they are not, the manufacturer-seller also offers promotions by using coupons. For a limited time (I don’t know the exact expiration date) coupon code 6UF54R77 gets you the Symphonized DRM Wood In-Ears for around $11. Their current price is $25, the coupon is “Save $14.11” which brings then down to $11. This is good for all three color options.

They come with a little zippered case and three eartip sizes. Not bad for $11. They average 4.4 out of 5 based on 87 customer reviews. The coupon works only if Symphonized is the actual seller (I believe they are the only one featured there, so it shouldn’t be an issue but just in case).

PS: I can’t resist pointing out that “DRM” is a rather unfortunate name to have for something music or media related 🙂

[DEAD] Monoprice Stereo Hybrid Tube Amp with Bluetooth for $135 w/coupon

Grain Audio OEHP On-Ears for under $129

The Grain Audio on-ear headphones currently go for $129 with free shipping at Stacksocial. Use weekend coupon TAXES for a surprise discount. A 10% discount would make these $116~ and so forth. Per the listing, these have “FSC-certified solid walnut enclosures”.

In other action, the third generation Bedphones Sleep Headphones go for $50 before coupon. A 10% off discount will make them $45 and so forth… Note however that these are getting a 3.2 out of 5 based on 160 customer reviews at amazon.

JLab Flex Over-Ears for under $50 with coupon

Stacksocial.com has a new coupon, enter TAXES in your shopping cart to get a surprise discount. The percentage will vary by users. I got a 10% off discount when I added it to the shopping cart. The JLab Flex Over-Ear headphones go for $50 with free shipping before the coupon. If you get a 10% off discount, that makes it $45. If you get a 20% off discount, that makes it a $40. I don’t know what the other discount options are, but their shopping cart will do the math for you 🙂

The coupon is good for this weekend, one of the many retailers doing the “tax relief” promotions aka “spend your refund with us” or get some “retail therapy” to take the sting out of owing the IRS even more 🙂

Stacksocial doesn’t have reviews, but you can find 13 of them at amazon.com where they go for $70 and average 4.6 out of 5 based on a lucky 13 customer reviews. The “Flex” in their name is because they twist and flex (see pictures/videos).

For other headphones and earphones at Stacksocial, check their headphone search listings.

Refurbished Logitech UE 4000 for $18 w/free S&H with coupon

If you like a closed-back closed sound (works for some people with some music genres, especially in not-quiet places), Meritline is offering the Logitech UE 4000 Headphones, in the white color scheme (model 982-000071) in refurbished condition with a 90-day replacement policy (but not eligible for return for refund), for $18 with free shipping with coupon code MLCZ08GN entered over there.

DAP specials at Fry’s: Pono for $230, Fiio X1 at $89

If you missed the Black Friday digital audio player specials, you have another shot at them now. You have to be willing to subscribe to the Fry’s daily email newsletters which gets you unique (per person) coupon codes that you can apply to get their latest Weekly Specials. Among the items offered for this week is Neil Young’s Pono player for $230, and the Fiio X1 for $89. There’s a limit of one per customer for each DAP. This is good for in-store purchases and also online orders with free shipping.

PS: I picked up an X1 during the holiday sales and will be posting about it in more detail once I get organized. If you have any specific things you want me to check or test, please leave a comment in any of the posts. It reminds me of a more mature and serious version of the good old Sandisk Fuze with that click-wheel. Except I was using the Fuze with the Rhapsody Windows Desktop client software (to transfer subscription tracks), and the frustration with that horrible piece of Rhapsody s***ware rubbed off on my memory of the poor old Fuze 🙂

Friday: SOL Republic Tracks On-Ears for $30 (Promo Codes)

When you page down to the very bottom of the Frys.com daily ad for email subscribers using their unique promo-codes for Friday Dec-18-2015, you will see that the new condition SOL Republic Tracks On-Ears will be offered for $30 per pair, with a limit of two per customer. This offer is good on their website or their stores. This is while supplies last, so if you can’t find them in-stock, there are no rainchecks. This is good for one day only, but a number of their offers are recurring but it’s unpredictable as to when they will return.

Casio XWH2 or XWH3 DJ headphones for $105~ with coupon

Casio too is getting into the USA market headphone game with their own models. And as of the time of writing, two of them are part of the Amazon 20% off coupon promotion that includes 2000+ music-related gear. The coupon is MUSIC20OFF. Amazon has renewed its expiration date a couple of times, and now they don’t even mention an expiration, so the best I can tell you is that it works if it works 🙂

The two eligible Casio headphones go for around $130 at the moment, and their price drops to around $105 after you enter the coupon code. They are the red-gray XWH3 DJ and the white-black XWH2 DJ. Their hinge reminds me of some of the older Soul by Ludacris headphones (this is off the top of my head).

They have no customer reviews, so this is perhaps for the explorers and the reviewers and curious. There are three models in this line, but the XWH1 does not get discounted with the coupon. For the other two, the price drops like this in the Amazon checkout page (highlighted the relevant parts below):

casio_headphones_discount

Not many details are provided there, but looking at the red-gray model, picture #5 shows that the headband is very flexible, they are pictured twisted in an S-formation. Picture #3 shows their folding feature.

Dec 6-12: Blue Mo-Fi for $250 (in-store only at Fry’s with promo codes)

IF you are part of the Fry’s email newsletters, AND if you are going to be physically near a Fry’s brick and mortar store during the December 6-12 week (in 2015 AD, in case time-travelers are reading this), you can use the unique promo code from your Sunday Fry’s email newsletter to get the Blue Mo-Fi Powered High Fidelity Headphone for $250. This is new condition. This is limit one per customer, while supplies last, if available, no rainchecks… I don’t know if Amazon is planning to price-match it, as of the time of writing, Amazon’s price is $300…
