Why "Open Box Under $150" Actually Matters Here
Retail price on a pair of Sony or Beats headphones rarely drops below $150 CAD unless it's a Boxing Day sale you have to time perfectly. Open box changes that math year-round — these are units that were returned unused or opened for inspection, not used or damaged, and Price Slash checks battery health and cosmetic condition on every one before it ships.
For a Canadian buyer, that's the real appeal: flagship-adjacent audio gear at prices that usually only show up during Black Friday, available in July instead of waiting five months for a sale that may not even include the model you want.
What Canadian Buyers Should Know Before Choosing
Condition labelling matters more than brand name here. "New (Open Packaging)" means the box was opened, typically for a return or inspection, but the unit itself is unused. "Used" means exactly what it says, with the specific condition noted in the listing — still backed by a 30-day return policy, just priced accordingly. Read the condition line on each listing before checkout, since it's the difference between two units of the same headphones sitting $20-30 apart in price.
Also worth checking before you buy: what you're actually using them for. Wired gaming headsets like the JBL Quantum 350 make sense for PC or console play, but if you want something for the gym or daily commute, the Sony or Samsung earbuds are the better fit.

Is open box the same as used?
No. Open box means the packaging was opened, typically for a return or inspection, but the item itself is unused with full battery health. Used items are listed separately with their specific condition noted.
Do open box headphones come with a warranty or return policy?
Every order at Price Slash includes a 30-day return policy, with exceptions noted at checkout.
How fast does Price Slash ship in Canada?
Most orders are dispatched within 24-48 hours and ship across Canada.
Final Thoughts
None of these five are the "wrong" pick — it really comes down to what you're using them for. Gamers should go JBL, Apple ecosystem users should go AirPods 4, and if budget is the deciding factor, the Sony WF-C500 at $89.99 is hard to beat. Prices and stock shift regularly, so check the category page above if any of these sell out.
