      That $1614.94 price are “used – like new” from Amazon Warehouse.  “No item damage observed during inspection. Minor packaging damage observed,” which would be a great deal if true.  The last such I tried was a Beosound 1 2.gen: Alas, it came in a box without a power cord, with some minor scratches on one side,… and it was a 1.gen!  So someone else scammed amazon with their return.  Thankfully, amazon took my return without questioning my complaints, nor suggesting that *I* was the scammer at that point — who knew since the previous return clearly had *not* been inspected.

      Fortunately there is no previous generation of Balance, nevertheless one cannot buy used B&O from amazon without meticulously checking once it arrives.  Don’t drop-ship as a gift to your cousin who doesn’t know what to look for, don’t spend on overseas shipping, etc.  “доверяй, но проверяй,” as Ronald Reagan said. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trust,_but_verify)

      Meantime, they jacked up the sale-price of the black one, new, from $2116 yesterday to $2516 today.  Natural was, and is, $2599.  But the Aluminum are still available, 8 units left today at $2274. [Edit: Price gone as of 8/24 — they sold 1 (8 left -> 7 left in stock) and raised the price to $2890.]

        Thanks for the clarification and warning.  I guess I didn’t read the listing close enough. Given the price, I thought it might be used but missed it anyway.

          Just in case you didn’t receive the e-mail — Thru 11/30, USA & Canada, dealer & website as may be in-stock: Save 36% off retail price on Beosound A1 2nd Gen, 21% off Beosound Emerge, 40% off Beoplay A9 4th Gen Black only, 25% off Beosound Stage, and 25% off Beoplay H95.

          (As of 11/20, website already sold out of the A9 4.gen black, but Lunar Red is available at the 40% despite not being mentioned.  For once, amazon.com is not behind on list prices or current sales, so you could get your black A9 there at the same price.)

              Hey UK BeoWorlders – I turned down a trade-in offer recently but I thought it might be interesting for those of you on here.

              A dealer in London (Islington) recently messaged me about a promo that would give me 13400 GBP for my pair of BeoLab 5s towards a new pair of 50s/90s. If you want to know more I would suggest calling up Rohan at B&O Islington London.

                This is, or was, also taking place in the USA.

                      The B&O store at Bicester Village still have new Beoplay M3s in stock and are selling them for £225. Both colours are available.

                      (This was my first trip to Bicester village for about 20 years, and I only nipped in for a quick coffee whilst dropping my wife off.  Shocked to pay £3.80 for a cappuccino!)
