Some deals on Amazon from resellers there:
See right side for the used box where they're listed

Topping D30 DAC for $300
SMSL M500 (v1) for $276.99
Topping D90SE for $764
SMSL HO200 for $299
Topping Topping L50 for $171
Topping E30 for $80
Adorama has the Dakoni Fostex Blue (MKIII version) for $176
Amazon links don't resolve it seems, so I shortened them for brevity. The warehouse never has good prices, but some of the resellers do. With the 5 percent back card and free shipping, they can beat eBay sellers sometimes.

I actually managed to grab a Studio 580 for $254 from the warehouse earlier this week.

What’s an affiliate link?
If the original poster posts a link, and it's an affiliate link (with a referral tag), then whoever makes a purchase after clicking on that link, then the original poster earns a percentage of the total value of the product purchased.

This is how most youtubers and other forums make their money (other than ad revenue).

Most URLs linked on this thread (and on this forum in general) are non-affiliate, meaning no one is making profit off of your purchases.
As soon as you allow affiliate links, it introduces a whole lot of problems.

Oh I got you, didn’t think regular people did that. I do recall the term from YouTube like erins Audio corner didn’t think just about anyone could do that

Amazon has a coupon for 10 percent off the Topping D10b, if you use a store credit card for 5 percent more it's pretty good. Buying used is hard because they're so good, people only sell them to get something with more features or connectivity.

Topping DX3Pro+ for $149 in the used box down on the right.

Rtings has a review unit sale page where they sell things after checking them out. The cool thing is if you buy headphones there you were going to get anyway, you get to see all the test results and measurements they did of your exact pair.

Also Adorama is now on the Capital One credit card list for 4 percent cash back. It's a trick to use, go to Adorama and put what you want in a shopping cart, then log into Capitol One account, then look on the discount list and click through the Adorama link and buy from there to get the cash back on your card. With any other cash back on your card and Adorama points (which aren't worth that much but it helps) you can whittle the price down if you start at their email list special pricing which is much lower than their advertised sky high prices. Sadly, eBay dropped off the discount program at the same time.

In Canada:
Kef R3's are on sale for CDN$2000/pair
(2001audiovideo, centrehifi, laliberteelectronique, visions)

In USA:
Which means USA should follow.
Thanks to @Rufus T. Firefly for first reporting the USA sale.
MusicDirect has the black colour for US$1700/pair.
Other Kef products on sale (like R5, R7, R11, etc).
Looks like none of the other online Kef dealers discounted the price yet...which I suspect they all will, shortly.
