WARNING - Check the picture that's what I got for my AirPods Pro from Walmart. Their delivery people are thieves. Walmart would not refund because the box was "delivered" to my door! $169 + tax for some ripped up Apple cardboard! PLEASE STAY THE HELL AWAY!!!
AirPods Pro 2 stands out as a strong upgrade for Apple users who want better noise cancelling, USB C charging, volume control, conversation awareness, and especially call quality. The community also points to solid real world performance, with several confirming the earbuds are legit and work as expected, and some stacking price matches or card offers to cut the cost further. The main caveat is availability, since the model is being discontinued and the best prices have sold out quickly. A good fit if you want Apple integration and can still find a pair at the right price.
people upgrading from AirPods Pro 1 because they want USB-C plus stronger ANC and conversation awareness, and they're okay buying now since Pro 2 is being discontinued and waiting could mean less availability.
buyers who care about call quality because commenters say AirPods cancel unwanted noise and have a superior microphone for calls even if they prefer other brands for music/bass.
shoppers who already have AirPods Pro 1 and only want to upgrade to get away from Lightning, since one commenter said that's the only reason they'd consider Pro 2.
people who want a safer purchase experience than marketplace/third-party listings because commenters warn there are many fakes on Facebook Marketplace/OfferUp and that it's easy to resell counterfeit Apple products.
buyers who can verify authenticity and use a return window, since commenters reported picking up in-store as legit and noted there's a return window if anything is wrong.
people planning to buy through Walmart delivery because multiple commenters reported ripped or resealed boxes and missing earbuds, plus issues getting refunds when the package was marked delivered.
people who are mainly chasing the newest performance improvements, because commenters say AirPods Pro 3 has better ANC/transparency and is more comfortable for many, while Pro 2 is still the previous generation.
buyers who already have AirPods Pro 1 and expect a noticeable upgrade, because one commenter said switching to Pro 2 made little to no difference and they returned them.
shoppers who are trying to get the best value by buying used locally, because commenters say Facebook Marketplace/OfferUp listings are often counterfeit and easy to scam with fake Apple products.
The upgrade adds USB-C, stronger ANC, volume control, and Conversation Awareness, and it also moves you off Lightning. If your Pro 1 battery is still fine, the improvement may feel small; if you want the newer features or need to replace aging batteries, Pro 2 is the practical step.
AirPods Pro 3 reportedly have better ANC and transparency and are more comfortable for many people. AirPods Pro 2 are still considered very decent, and the main tradeoff is paying less now versus waiting for a bigger discount on the newer model.
The Best Buy listing discussed here is open-box, while the earlier $100 and $110 prices were described as open-box and new, respectively. If you want new units, verify the listing details before buying.
Best Buy does price match, and chat with an agent is the suggested route. If the item is already sold out, the match may be harder to get, so placing a second order while the price is live can help.
An Amex card coupon for 20% off up to $25 can stack with the deal. Staples can also price match, which can be useful if you want to use points or other store credit.

The box was perfect, but the pods were missing? That sounds like an inside job, not a delivery issue.

I don't know at which stage the items (ear pieces, charging cable, ear tips) were stolen. But, as you may see from the image, it was resealed with clear plastic tape in a rush, sloppy manner. The cardboard stuff was running loose inside the package as there was no filler either. Anyone picked it up would know something wrong with the box, let alone "professional" delivery person. Regardless, it's Walmart's failure because fulfilling and shipping the order is their responsibility. As a consumer paying the items with my honest earned dollars, I feel Walmart was doing bait and switch to me and they essentially indirectly accused me of lying instead of fixing their own issue! I've spent many thousand dollars with Amazon Prime through the years and they haven't failed once.

I had a similar experience. I had AirPods 3 delivered by Walmart. The driver put it on the floor, took a picture, and then took back the package. Marked it as delivered. I contacted Walmart and told them what happened I had a door bell camera as well as two other cameras capture it so they refunded me the purchase.They didn't want the video though. They just said they would take care of the issue. Oh well, I got my refund, but I wouldn't want that person delivering anymore packages. I think he knew the doorbell camera wouldn't capture the bottom part so it was a good thing I have other cameras pointing there as well.
