Deal Details
I was debating between these and the 2nd Generation model, and for this price difference (QC Ultra Gen 2 is $449) since Bose is clearing out their stock, I pulled the trigger on these. It was $300 out the door after tax for me, and ~3 business days shipping it looks like. The White Smoke color is the only one they seem to have in stock at this time.

What's in the Box:
Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones
Carry case
3.5 mm to 2.5 mm audio cable
USB-CĀ® (A to C) cable (20")

Thank you! I signed up with a different email address and would want to cancel the original order, but no luck receiving the code so far on my second registrationšŸ™ˆ

These are the days people pay over $200 for a pair of earphones. Do you all really put that much value on these things?

What a useless and unhelpful comment. Value is subjective and if you want headphones that do a good job of canceling out noise and sound good, with modern features that are also comfortable, they are absolutely worth the price. There are people who pay thousands of dollars for headphones. It's all a matter of what's worth it to you, and what isn't, but $200 for these type of headphones is a good deal. You not personally finding them worth it means nothing .

You can also get an additional 10% off with ID ME if applicable to you, and another 10% on top of that with code EXTRA10 today (sunday the 22) only... They also advertise a 10% off coupon for signing up to emails // texts. For what it's worth I tried that a week ago with two separate emails and never received a code, even in spam.

Bose also has these refurbished for $229 in 6 different colors, with the same coupons applicable
