In US they should cost around 730-830$ Open-Box with 5-year warranty I believe, so you are fine with this, the only part that warranty didn't cover it's headband, but it's really rare for them to break

Ah, well you see, I'm not in the US, and even at that price I should really hold off (planning to upgrade my GPU soon, which is gonna sting, plus energy bills over winter are going to be pretty brutal).

it's not even the headband itself breaking, it's the fact that you can't get replacement padding... at all. I'm generally quite lucky in that my hair and skin doesn't seem to secrete whatever caustic substance makes other people's pleather disintegrate within no time... but still, I'd feel much happier knowing that I can swap out the padding if need be.
