Hey guy, I'm new to this forum and would like some advice in purchasing headphones. I've been looking into getting some cheaper over-the-ear headphones (my first pair of non in-ear) under $50. I am leaning towards buying a pair of used-very good or used-like new headphones on amazon, for the value.
So originally, I had my mind set of the ATH M30's but the price increased. So then, I found a pair of Sennheiser HD 439's for ~ $45 in like new condition, which I figured was an upgrade, at an equal price. The Used-like new status does not turn me away.

but then, today I went into Best Buy and tried out some headphones and I found a pair I really liked: Klipsch Image One, however the price was $150 in stores. I went home, and found a pair of Klipsch Image One (this is an older model, but many of the reviews on the 2nd gen say the first generation is better) for only ~$45 in like new condition, which again sits nicely in my price range.

Any recommendations on which pair is better? Or is there another pair altogether that is recommended for preferably under $40.
Also, I would like to get a pair of used-like new, because I feel like I get more for my money that way.
Thanks!
