šŸ”¶ Focal Elex

fix it up and sell it to omni lol

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 driver… then heck… just buy 2 broken… swap the drivers and you would have a pair for less than $200. Lol… 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 couldn’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?)… does not make them 300$, you know.
Just check the used market’s that actually have em on sale. M0N is much closer.

On the $300 range you’re looking at wear and tear that I don’t think is worth going for. At $450 on average you’re looking at much better condition. Not to say that it’s impossible to find a very good condition pair for 300-350 but it’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 it’s clearly used and it’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 it’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 they’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. i’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.

I’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 don’t mind them going down in value, I’d be glad for more people to experience the Elex because I love the sound. I just think it’s a bit misleading to say that they’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 sure… the best prices are around $450.
That seller from Indiana, who knows… maybe he just sold them not knowing… or some other reason.
