šŸ”¶ Focal Elex

Yeah, if he wants them, sure. Might be willing to give a deal. =) Avoid seller fees on Ebay.

They typically go around 450-500 I have not seen a good condition elex at 300

And if they went for $80 normally with only 1 working driverā€¦ then heckā€¦ just buy 2 brokenā€¦ swap the drivers and you would have a pair for less than $200. Lolā€¦ if only. :disappointed_relieved:

Yeh PM me if you fix em :slight_smile: I might take em off your hands haha

Currently eyeing a set of clears, if they go under 600 euros Imma snatch em up :stuck_out_tongue:

That would be a pretty good steal lol

That was back when they were not available on massdrop. now they go for 300$ and up

haha I know !

Was wondering as I couldnā€™t find any info, is the black version with the red pads the same version as the normal colored one? just a different color?

Same sound, just different accessories

Do you have any examples of previous listings you could link? I have only seen broken elex at that price

one pair (bad conditition?)ā€¦ does not make them 300$, you know.
Just check the used marketā€™s that actually have em on sale. M0N is much closer.

On the $300 range youā€™re looking at wear and tear that I donā€™t think is worth going for. At $450 on average youā€™re looking at much better condition. Not to say that itā€™s impossible to find a very good condition pair for 300-350 but itā€™s not the norm imo

Thanx Guys, there is a guy selling a Elex locally where I stay but not getting hold of him. And at a very good price with no import taxes and shit.

Those first two listings are pretty suspicious, they claim open box but itā€™s clearly used and itā€™s both from the same seller (actually all are from the same seller). They

And the 3rd one has the pads swapped for some reason and itā€™s just kinda sketch overall. Just reminds me of like adorama camera or something lol

I suspect that now the price has come down to 600$ and theyā€™ve been available for a while that used prices will settle at 300-400$ i know we dont like to see our valuable and beloved headphones drop in value. but the way i look at it, if mine break and i cant fix it, it wont cost me so much to replace them. iā€™m just a poor boy after all.

You also have to take into account buying used that replacement pads drop once a year on drop, and usually sell out inside 1 day, or you buy clear pads for $200.

Iā€™m all for stuff getting more affordable, I just worry those have been tampered with in some way.

On av exchange reddit most recent elex are being sold for around 500, which I would say is a more accurate representation of price for community

On ebay current and past listing hover around 450-500, with the exception of the seller you linked which is strange. I see a fair amount of dead side drivers or broken elex go for 200-300

I donā€™t mind them going down in value, Iā€™d be glad for more people to experience the Elex because I love the sound. I just think itā€™s a bit misleading to say that theyā€™re going for 300 when the average price for a pair in good condition is 400-500.

The one for $250 is from the same seller as the $80 broken pairs.

The others for around $450 I think make more sense. I have not seen them for under $400 for sureā€¦ the best prices are around $450.
That seller from Indiana, who knowsā€¦ maybe he just sold them not knowingā€¦ or some other reason.
