I prefer to base value of a deal off of what they sell for now, not what they originally sold for.
You'll probably need a separate Bluetooth transmitter to use it though. As far as I know, no phones, streaming sticks etc support the codec natively. In my case I use a little type C transmitter that's almost flush when inserted. It's designed for the Nintendo switch, but works with my phone, laptop and chromecast with Google TV (with a type c hub). It also allows 2 headphones to connect at the same time, but if they don't both support AptX LL then it's disabled on both while they're connected.
Bose QC35 II
Weight: 0.52 lb
Clamping force: 0.69 lb
These Sennheiser PXC 550-II
Weight: 0.51 lb
Clamping force: 0.8 lb
Bose 700, which I sent back for being too uncomfortable as a QC35 II user
Weight: 0.58 lb
Clamping force: 1 lb
AirPods Max
Weight: 0.85 lb
Clamping Force: 1.2 lb
At this point I would not even consider the AirPods Max. That is 170% the weight and 150% the clamping force of these Sennheisers.

Anyone got the same issue?
AirPods: in-ear; no clamping force
AirPods Pro: in‐ear; no clamping force
AirPod Max: over-ear; 1.2lb of clamping force
To answer your question: me personally, it is not a big deal (for some it is) and you don't need an adapter to connect to a usb-a port. Thys headphone already comes with a "USB Charging cable (Micro to A)" so just need to carry this usb-a to micro usb wire if you only have usb a to usb c wires. Again, if you don't mind carrying or keeping a usb-a to micro usb wire with you, it's not a big deal.
tl;dr: No, not a big deal and no adapter needed. It's just a first world problem.
These are listed on the sale page as refurbished by eBay.
Not sure how true that is, but I'd guess it is a less rigorous process vs Sennheiser.
