Refurb. Plantronics BackBeat GO 2 bluetooth earphones for $28
The Plantronics BackBeat GO 2 bluetooth earphones are on sale for $28 with free shipping in either black or white as Seller-Refurbished by Tech Rabbit on eBay. You can buy as many as you like. However, there is no mention of a warranty in the eBay listing, so assume it gets none.
On the other hand, for the same price, you can get them as certified refurbished by Tech Union fulfilled by Amazon. Amazon’s listing specifies certified refurbished as having a 90-day warranty as a minimum. The refurbishing can be done either by a manufacturer or a 3rd-party refurbisher, so it looks like this is an Amazon term; not to be confused with manufacturer-refurbished. Of course some manufacturers outsource their own refurbishing to 3rd-parties, so without the listing providing detailed details, assume it’s the 3rd-party doing the refurbishing. Free shipping for Prime or with a $49+ order.
Beyerdynamic DT990 (250) PRO and Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB AI and AT 2035 Mic for $289
This is a headphone bundle of three, the Beyerdynamic open-back over-ear DT 990 PRO (250 ohm) headphones, along with the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB Audio Interface (2nd Generation, red/black) and the Audio-Technica Cardioid Condenser Microphone (AT2035) for $289 with free shipping by Buydig on eBay. Limit one bundle per customer during this sale.
On their own, the Focusrite goes for $100 and the Mic goes for $150. so if you happen to need and like those two, it’s like getting the headphones for $50. If you only need one of the Interface/Mic, then it gets complicated depending on whether you are willing to sell/trade or gift the one you don’t need.
AKG K240 II Studio headphones for $65

Logitech UE900S IEMs for $230
And now it’s time for some in-ears, authorized dealer PitBull Audio on eBay (99.7%, California) is offering the new condition Logitech UE900S IEMs for $230 with free shipping. They ship with USPS Priority Mail per the listing. That’s one advantage of IEMs, they are lightweight enough even for First Class Mail but I’m digressing. Limit 12 per customer or they have 12 units total in-stock (most likely the latter).
Sony XB950BT Extra Bass Bluetooths for $98
At the intersection of bassheads and techies, one of the headphones one may find are the closed-back Sony XB950BT over-ears. The “Extra Bass” in their name makes certain classical music fans don’t buy them accidentally 😉 They have Bluetooth with NFC but no ANC. NFC is handy if you are planning to frequently switch between different bluetooth sources (eg two phones) and don’t want to deal with the soap opera of different bluetooth devices “fighting” for an active connection.
All that brings us to these headphones being on sale for $98 with free shipping, in your choice of black, red or blue, at authorized dealers Abt Electronics and BuyDig on eBay (limit 5; over 400 units sold).
These are popular, if customer reviews and questions are an indicator, they have over 1000 of the former and over 600 answered of the latter at amazon.com with an average of 4.3 out of 5 and a decent “review intensity ratio”. That’s the 5-stars vs the 1-stars, it’s about a 10:1 (69% of reviews versus 7% of reviews), which is a good sign.
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7b for $80 (ANC)
On the Active Noise Cancelling front, the new condition Audio-Technica ATH-ANC7b are currently offered for $80 with free shipping with a limit of five units per customer by Focus Camera on eBay with a limit of five units per customer. The ANC system is powered by one AAA battery which is a plus/minus depending on your disposition on these and whether you like to use rechargeable AAAs.
Bose MIE2 Earphones for $73
Hide this post from the angry audiophiles, you may get excommunicated for reading about Bose 😉 Among the latest daily deals on eBay, the A4C store (aka All4Cellular) is offering the new condition Bose MIE2 Earphones for $73 with free shipping with a limit of five per customer. The “M” stands for mobile, it has a mic/remote. This is a previous generation model, before Bose switched to the Soundtrue/Soundsport line-ups.
The semi-unique feature of these is that there are neither in-ears nor earbuds. They sort of sit on the ear like an earbud but they have a speaker protrusion that goes inside the ear. It does not create a seal, so you are not going to get ideal sound quality, but if you have comfort issues with both earbuds and in-ears, it may be a convenience/comfort compromise. The earfins hold them in place.
PS: for a limited time, you can save 5% off more if you buy two or more of these or any other items participating in the A4C promotion (this offer is mentioned prominently over there while it is running).
