I believe these are older models. I first saw the SL300's (no the Usain Bolt edition) over 3 years ago. I bought mine in April 2013 and I travel internationally often and these headphones have been great.

I wasn't sure either, but took a chance and wasn't sorry. Great carrying case, like the over the ear style for travel and the powered mode rocks.... Sound great and fit well, purchased the black & white and was a great value.

we returned these because everyone can hear the music you're listening to, defeats the purpose of not disturbing others with your music

If there is a Cost Plus World Market in your area, you can buy them for $6.99. I have no idea why the prices are so high here.

Same here. $1.50 or 2/$3 at Market Basket... Maybe we should resell these! LOL

They are worth more in original packaging - sorry for the delay in response

I have noticed that when many online companies get very low on stock, a ridiculous price point kicks in until the new supply arrives, to avoid going out of stock completely. I've seen a package of ballpoint pens for $99 and so on, so that's probably what is happening here. Shop around. Let there be no doubt however that this product, at this strength, is not inexpensive. $130 would not be unreasonable.

I have never seen the $20.00+ set. It's possible they are being sold by a specialty store, so the price is higher. That is why I prefer Amazon; I can often find the same item for a lower price.

The prices are different just like anywhere, because they are being sold by different companies. They look like the same set to me.

It depends on which seller you're purchasing them from. Some are cheaper because the box was opened but the item wasn't used so check the condition notes to determine what sort of condition it is being sold and that will usually indicate why it may be discounted.

Seriously. I've also noticed that a while back too and so my money is mainly being spent elsewhere. These guys are RIPPOFFS. IT'S SUPPOSE TO BE CHEAPER HERE NOT MORE EXPENSIVE!!!

You have to watch the sellers' pricing. Often there is great disparity for the same item.

it's because amazon is awesome, not sure if you've realized. But its an old stereo four years or so. items decrease in value after a while, smaller retailers have less product and thus they need to sell if for more in order to make a profit. Also amazon buys directly from companies and companies sell directly through amazon so they are usually trying to more product especially when its an older product like this. retailers might have to buy through a 2nd or 3rd supplier and thus again they need to sell at a higher price to make the same profit. There is also shipping prices where online you pay for from the manufacture or amazon's warehouse.

I got 'em for $40. It's probably some algorhythm figuring out what price to set them at so no one buys them while they're out of stock.

There is no catch. MSRP is MSRP, just a SUGGESTED price. These have been in the 150-200 range for several years. Brand new and spanking awesome. At least the ones from Amazon are. Also, these have now been discontinued so I would expect once Amazon's stock runs out, resellers will be raising prices.

I don't understand. I'm not selling them. It clearly states, from the seller, 2, for the price of $20.49

The people reselling at 89$ do it all the time on here, I was looking at some toys for my niece and they were way more than the Amazon price. Buyers beware!

this happens all the time to everyone, dont sweat it! Sometimes things go on sale or Amazon gets a better deal from the manufacturer or they need to get rid of old stock. Don't blame a great company like Amazon for price flutuations...its just the nature of the beast.

Elizabeth. Those high prices are not actually "Amazon's" prices. Those are the resellers that sell on Amazon. When you see those high prices like that, it means that Amazon is out of stock and their resellers have them in stock for those prices
