Quality headphones can cost a fortune — unless you can find a way to save. Going refurbished is one such way, and right now you can put a pair of Sony’s WH-1000XM5 headphones on your head for just $180. This model has been around for a while now, but they’re still among the best ANC headphones on the market.

That price gets you certified refurbished headphones that are a full 55% off the price you’d pay if you went for a brand-new pair. You’ll also be able to take advantage of eBay’s refurb warranty program, which means that your headphones will be covered for a full two years as well. This price doesn’t require any coupons or discount codes and the seller, Secondipity, has a positive review rating, too.

The Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are known for being comfortable and great-sounding. Their battery life is rated for up to 32 hours per charge. Sony’s active noise-canceling technology is present, and among the best you can get.

Why does this deal matter

Sony’s over-ear headphones have built a reputation for top-tier sound and some of the best noise cancellation you will find anywhere. Normally, that level of performance doesn’t come cheap — but because these are refurbished, you’re looking at half the usual cost. For anyone who’s been holding off on upgrading to a pair of premium headphones, this is the golden chance to buy one before the deal runs out.
