I'm hoping the price drops that low on their ebay store too. Here's what Secondipity said about warranty:
For Sony products, we only offer a 90 day policy. The first 30 days, you qualify for a return for a full refund or replacement and after the 30 days for the remaning 60 days, you qualify only for a replacement only. After 90 days of delivery, your order does not qualify for refund or replacements. Any additional extended warranty you purchase at check out, will be through a third party company.

Super tempting and my WH1000XM3s have held up for 6 and a half years now...but not sure I trust a 90-day warranty on a $300 product.

I ordered a pair of refurb xm4 before vacation last month. Other than the shipping taking longer than expected and not being updated on the shop app, I can't complain They came the following Wednesday after initially being promised on Saturday and looked basically unused. They charged right up and I haven't had any issues since.

used headphones filled with someone else hair and ear wax..and spending $300 on it.. wow!
Yeah, plus saturated with Cheetos dust, llama excrement and cranial fluid. Pure Biohazard. Each one comes with an EPA warning and a hazmat suit.... That being said all the refurbs I have purchased arrive as new.

x4 was my favorite. The x5 not so much. Anyone else? What is your favorite and why should I upgrade.

I'm still rocking my XM2s from 2018. Incredible headphones, my favorite. Build quality is insane. Feel no need to upgrade yet.
The only thing finally giving is the leather, which hasn't even gotten any less insanely plush and soft, but it has finally begun to slightly crack, but still not even peeling yet.

Meanwhile the plush leather on the arm wrests of my Razer Blackwidow keyboards started peeling heavily after only 3 years. Same with my Corsair Virtuoso SE and Logitech G935 headphones... I don't know what material Sony is using in their leather manufacturing, but it's next level.

I just got mine yesterday in color blue, they look like new , no scratches , all the cables and magnetic case included. The sound blew me away, I have the XM4 and the Bose ultras and this ones definitely sound much better, the ANC is better than my Bose and XM 4.

I have the xm5 I got from this store refurb years ago and I never use it. The headband hurts my head after more than 30 minutes. Apparently other people have the same problem. Not sure if the xm6 fixes that. Tried the headband sleeve which helps a little bit but still hurts after a while. And the sleeve makes it super bulky

Otherwise the sound quality is good and ANC is good. But I just can't get over the comfort or lack of.
I've tried multiple xm5. Surprisinly some hurts the top of my head, some don't.
I don't know if it's build quality differences, or Sony has improved it over time.

You can easily replace pretty much everything on the XM3 and get a few more years out of it

I replaced the cushions with Wicked cushions and those have held up great
when the hinges cracked, I replaced those using the different 3D printed ones you can find on amazon/ebay
when the leather headband started to fray and wear out, replaced that from amazon too
Have had them since 2018 and will keep them till they die. Battery still lasts me two days with heavy use too.

Yeah, the only reason I'm wanting to upgrade is for the better ANC...I'm sure 3 generations is enough for a significant improvement. But otherwise they've held up fine. The battery life is still insanely long.

My M4s and M5s both snapped at the hinge above one of the ear muffs. Did they change the design with M6 to prevent this?

Has anyone bought these refurbed ones and notice any stretching of the headband? From what I've read, ppl who buy new ones say the clamp force is noticeable for the first hour or so but then it goes away. Almost as if the headband gets a wear in phase.

What I'm afraid of is buying a pair with a headband that's been worn in beyond my head size.
