Are you sure you can do that now, with the recent rarity of Senn discounts out there?

Are Senn discounts really that rare? I'm looking at the refurbished HD 800 from crutchfield, but if any deals on the HD 800 pop I would jump on them. 

I heard that Sennheiser keeps a pretty tight leash on it's HD 800 pricing though.

Sennheiser has recently reigned in their dealer network in an effort to fight competitive erosion from many online outlets. Because of this, there will be fewer dealers than in the past. They are also fighting unauthorized discounts with a very strict pricing policy. This primarily affects their mid to high-end headphones.

And yet, it looks like they won't think twice about undercutting their dealers lol.

The recent sales from Sennheiser USA were priced far below what they allow retailers to sell at.

If you are referring to the promo code that was posted earlier in this thread, it was not intended to be a public offer. It was an internal code that was not supposed to be released.

I don't think it was. It was listed on a thread Jude started. They would have told him to take it down if they didn't want it up.

I know the origin of the code. It was not intended for public use.

I am not going to go into detail. The point was that Sennheiser was not undercutting their dealers. You can choose to believe me or not.

Why else would they kill it 6 hours after Jude posted it? And why else would they not put info about this amazing offer on their site?

So you're just making conclusions based on the events?
