Did anyone else buy them? I received my first pair from Amazon earlier this week and they had some minor marks/scratches on the right ear cup. So I would have considered them in very good but certainly not new/unrefurbished. After complaining to amazon they send me a replacement and guess what: That one had a even more noticeable mark on the right cup.
Both of them seemed properly sealed in the box. Not sure what’s going on but I checked with an Apple store employee and they said they never had issues like this with the units they sell at the store. So it seems something weird is going on with the supplier amazon is using…
Would love to hear if anyone else might have experienced this issue with out of the box airpods?

Those have been used..

That said, those are going to get even more marks as you use them.

Maybe you can get them to give you a further discount for just keeping them?
 
So 7 months in and we're already seeing 20% off sales? Shades of HomePod.
not really,, ipad pros also get discounts. It’s just iPhones which always keep their value

for what it’s worth the air pods max are still full priced here in UK.
 
Had them for 6 months and they never get marks on them. The metal is really impervious to anything so not sure what happened there.
