Shure SE-215 plus $10 store credit for $100

Shure used to have a $10 mail-in rebate on the SE-215 (one of the frequently recommended $100 in-ears), which was kinda goofy. Who wants to invest the time in a mail-in rebate for a $10 amount? When you factor in photocopies, postage, supplies, cutting up box/UPC, and such. The mail-in rebate promotion ended as of 1/11/15.

However, now they have a new more digital-shopper friendly promotion. You buy either the silver SE215-CL or the black SE215-K for $100, and three days after your order ships, Amazon will apply a $10 promotional credit to your Amazon account. This will happen automatically, you don’t need to do anything (other than buy the earphones of course).

This offer is only good when Amazon.com actual is the seller, not from marketplace sellers or used/refurbished. The offer expires 2/19/15 unless renewed or cancelled. They have terms and conditions explaining it. Annotated screenshot of the page mentioning the offer below:

PS: I checked a few other Shure earphones and headphones but so far, the SE-215 are the only ones I found having this promotion.

[DEAD] Used Shure SE112-GR in-ears for $28

As of a 11/30/14 recheck, the price is closer to $40… Curious about Shure’s budget SE112-GR in-ears but don’t want to pay regular price? You can pay almost half price at the moment by going used.
