This is stupid. The X10 is cheaper than 149.99 pretty much in every retail store. What are you trying to pull here massdrop?

$146.99 list price with free shipping. when you sign up for an account, you receive a $10 off coupon. So final cost is $136.99
UPDATE: per another comment (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/xduoo-x10-digital-audio-player/talk/603518) from @djpzo , if you use coupon code 'WX10' you get 30% off for a total of $116.99 shipped.

skysaberx8xit's on the tomtop.com
penonaudio and aliexpress have x10 for 175 USD - without any discount.
So if massdrop is telling people that retail price is 200 $ they are simply lying. Really sad to witness this...

osirisskThanks for the info. Yeah, I know it's really sad. Massdrop used to be community driven, good old times.

skysaberx8xAlso, I do not mean to deny massdrop efforts, I mean the HD6xx was epic. But everyone have been asking to remove the MSRP shenanigans or they're abandoning this site and moving to other places where it's actually worth it to pay for the full price (aka amazon.com) due to superior shipping.

indi_guyread @osirissk comment that he wrote to me. Basically the massdrop is advertising higher MSRP to make its offers "discounts" more appealing to sell more to (obviously) make money. According to camecamelcamel, this product has never been higher than $145.99 . We will probably see an increase in the price in the future because we're having this discussion XD

osirisskCurrently, tomtop.com offers this for a 'regular price' of US $233.62 (more than the $200 MSRP shown here) and it's now only marked down to US $166.99 (instead of the $145.99 discount price that you saw). This seems noteworthy when discussing MD's pricing policies.

Nams Selemanhuh...It would almost seem like it's not not quite possible to nail down the MSRP of these Chinese products...but we know it's really just 'shenanigans' on the part of Massdrop. Really sad to witness this...phht.
