Recertified Bowers & Wilkins P7 with 2-yr warranty for $280 [or Very Used for $200] {updated}

UPDATE: this post has been rewritten after I discovered a better option…

Tthe closed-back over-ear Bowers & Wilkins P7 wired headphones are currently offered for $280 with free shipping and a 2-year warranty in Recertified condition by Amazon actual, with a limit of up to three units per customer. The current regular new condition price is $400 at authorized dealers. Given the warranty of the recertified, that’s a bang for the buck over the new condition.

On the other hand, if you are comfortable with heavily used headphones, and a higher purchase risk, marketplace seller “Cellular Stream” is offering “Used – Acceptable condition” for $200 with free shipping, with the order fulfilled by Amazon, so you get free Prime shipping (if a member) and 30-day money back guarantee (IMPORTANT since this is a higher risk purchase). Per the listing, you only get the headphones, no other accessories. Make sure you select one “fulfilled by Amazon” or a seller you know and trust.

If you want a lower risk, Amazon Warehouse Deals’ own lowest price is $252 in “Used – Good” condition. Note that there are multiple options on the same product page, so make sure you are looking at the one you want (there’s wired, wireess and recertified on the same listing).
