The $160 price is not for their refurbished headphones, which I think is what most people expect from Secondipity. That price is for headphones marked as "used", which are usually about $20 cheaper than their refurbished headphones. I assume they're doing function checks or maintenance on damaged products, which is why they think they can charge more for the refurbs.
Refurbished WH-1000XM5s come to $184 ($220-20%). Still better than average, which is about $200 in my estimation. I think this is about as cheap as they've gotten, but people should understand what they're buying at each price point.
I eventually returned it because the Left and Right output was not balanced, meaning the left side was slightly louder than the right.
It felt almost as comfortable as my old QC35, but does feel warmer. The sound from the WH-1000XM5 was definitely better, but the L/R imbalance was a deal breaker. I could have received a defective unit, but just a warning for those who purchased to really test them out.

I've seen what appears to be a LOT of XM5 headphone knockoffs on FB marketplace. I wonder if somebody did a buy / switch / return and secondipity got stuck with it (unknowingly).
If the last user or secondipity didn't fully factory reset it, it'll probably still retain the last user name.

I was able to create the account and got the pair of refurbished XM4s for $154 delivered after tax.

I ended up buying a new pair on Amazon and kept the original case and swapped the buds and returned them as damaged.
Typically, I'm pretty against any sort of retail fraud but still feel Sony is in the wrong. I understand not supporting a product out of warranty but they need to take responsibility for damage that they cause.
Won't ever buy a Sony device after that.
