I'm a bit on the fence about the serialization thing. I was one of the folks who got the "Yours has shipped already but might have a high serial number," email. I live in a distant part of the US, so MD packages often take 2+ weeks. Consequently, I'm expecting mine around the 2nd week of July. I'd really not like to wait another 2+ weeks to return and wait for the new one. It'd be nice to have a low serial number to have a little extra street cred but I don't know if extra street cred is worth another month of waiting.
Is street cred the main benefit with the low number? Would the resell market for these be such that a low serial number would pull more? At the end of the day, I recognize that these headphones aren't that special. I'm not the type with a decent head for marketing and the like (I know guys who live for the hustle and I just can't keep up with them) so I'm trusting you guys!
Unless you get like 0001 or something, there is no difference in resale value.
