If you are a high risk-tolerant shopper, eBay seller “TekDeals” (99.3%, California) is offering B-Stock Display condition manufacturer refurbished Sony MDR-10RNC headphones (NC = active noise cancelling BUT battery does NOT work) for $30 with free shipping. Over 200 units got sold from this listing so far. So the only way you can use active noise cancelling is if they are plugged in to a power source. You can use them in passive non-ANC mode. Check the listing for more details.
PS: if you are inexperienced with headphones, you may want to avoid this listing. If you know what you are doing, then you might be a better candidate for this.
PS2: speaking of eBay, continuing is the new condition sale of the open-back over-ear Philips SHP9500S headphones for $49 with free shipping by NewEgg. I just bought one, so an Unboxing and a Review Diary should be coming as soon as they arrive. The free shipping option says they’ll get here next week but you never know (sometimes it takes longer sometimes they arrive faster, it depends on how the economy shipping winds blow).
