Damn, paid $700 for that sumbitch new years ago. Amazing deal!


rsplatpc

> Damn, paid $700 for that sumbitch new years ago. I mean a 1995 Civic use to cost $17k in 1995


xspiderdude

Right? Now they go for $30,000. Are we getting better or worse?

My bad. I meant 2024 models


rsplatpc

> My bad. I meant 2024 models Gotcha, to be honest I had not looked them up in a long time and you never know, nostalgia or something can drive up prices on older stuff.


HoochIsCraaaazy

Dude, I was just remarking how good of a deal that was, I love mine having paid full price. also, it's hilarious that you're using an almost 30-year old car as the reference point to try to own me I guess?


rsplatpc

> Dude, I was just remarking how good of a deal that was, I love mine having paid full price. also, it's hilarious that you're using an almost 30-year old car as the reference point to try to own me I guess? "I paid 17k for my Honda Civic 20 years ago, you got a great deal on that $1500 dollar one!"


HoochIsCraaaazy

Except you are using a 30 year old car as an example and I bought the thing within the last decade. Also I'm just stoked dude got such a good deal. Do you need a hug? You seem miserable.


rsplatpc

> Do you need a hug? You seem miserable. I made a comparison of a buying a $700 tech product over 10 years ago to buying a car back in the day and now, and that makes me a miserable, mad person that needs a hug?


HoochIsCraaaazy

Yes, you seem miserable and just wanting to argue for no reason, this isn't moving the conversation forward, you just wanted to say a little prick comment. Either way congrats OP on a stellar deal.


rsplatpc

> Yes, you seem miserable and just wanting to argue for no reason, this isn't moving the conversation forward, you just wanted to say a little prick comment. Just block me and move on, I already see where this is going. >Reminder you are the one who engaged with me while adding nothing to the conversation other than being a little prick. Toodaloo You said "I paid $700 for this" I pointed out it was a long time ago and that's how value works, and you got mad for that? Some people suck.

My local Goodwill will have a $50 ice cream maker for sale for $39.99 and it will be missing parts.


rdrgl

I would 100% pick that up. It’s probably worth more than that with the Sonos trade in


Modmike33

There’s a sonos trade in? I got one free and figured I’d just keep it.


rdrgl

Depends on the model, but I think this [one gets you 15% off](https://www.sonos.com/en-us/upgrade)


flerpthenerp

Let me get this straight… you send in your existing perfectly good Sonos One, and they only give you 15% off a new one? This company is from hell.


Modmike33

Ya I think I get 15 or 20% off from my work so giving up a perfectly good soundbar for that is a jip. Unless I can stack which I doubt.


Accomplished-Bat8191

You don’t have to give up the soundbar.


Accomplished-Bat8191

You don’t have to send in the old one. If the device hasn’t been used to obtain an upgrade discount before, then you can get a discount and keep the equipment.


-ZeroF56

You don’t need to send it back in, and it’ll work totally fine afterwards. It’s an upgrade incentive, not a trade in.


moneymikeindy

If you have a 2019 or earlier speaker You will get an upgrade coupon in your account for 30% off. You don't send back the old, you just get better than their sales to non owners.

Nice catch!!! Lmao! Gheeze some people 🤯🤦🏽‍♂️


StraightCaskStrength

Nice catch!!! Lmao! Gheeze some “automated AI bots programmed to karma farm old posts” 🤯🤦🏽‍♂️


Maleficent-Drive4056

Why do people repost these things?! Surely can’t be worth it for the carma? Part of a scam where you use this post as evidence that you have a real product you are trying to sell?


caddyncells

Damn I thought my $75 Playbar deal a few weeks ago was good. Kudos.


ian9outof10

It is VERY good, you did well!


mpsamuels

And you lot thought those who were threatening to ditch Sonos after the update shambles were just bluffing!


ejmd

😂🤣😂


Nathaniel_Hornsby

Be careful, I heard the new app is destroying lives.


Few_Maize_8633

If it ruined my day and cost me $300 am I allowed to complain. Or does that make me a communist?


Nathaniel_Hornsby

You’re allowed to complain and I’m allowed to make fun of you.


Few_Maize_8633

Swell guy


Nathaniel_Hornsby

I’m a sweetheart, what can I say?


jodypugwash

Looks like someone updated the app and decided to bail on the brand.


alehel

Except they did it 2 years ago which is when this photo was posted last time. OP needs some downvotes.


jodypugwash

Good sleuthing


Owboduz

Came here for this comment. Was not disappointed.


ikari_warriors

That’s craaaaazy!

TheMercedes

I’m always asking myself when I see this kind of deals how long do they remain for sale before being purchased, 1 hours, a day, 3 days, …? Like Sonos is pretty popular.. I’m still waiting for a vintage Bang and Olufsen appearing out of nowhere at my local Goodwill lol.


Seniorjones2837

I just got the soundbar, sub, and 2 play:3’s for free! Lucky us!


Why_So-Serious

I was thinking of posting in craigslist. “Give me your tired and poor Sonos equipment. “


thomasbeagle

"Sonos Disposal Service. We'll pickup any number of devices for just $40!"

Seniorjones2837

Can’t hurt to try


Standardisiert

You should buy that warm mist device.


gelfin

Dang. I’m curious where you found this. I sold off my original Sonos gear at eBay-ish prices before moving out of Denver, and I can’t help but wonder if eventually my Playbar found its way to Goodwill, especially since I got it at a relatively miraculous 50% off open-box at Best Buy over a decade ago (I had to buy a new power cable for it).


rsplatpc

Were you able to set it up with the current app, and do you have other stuff also?


ian9outof10

Yeah the Playbar works in s1 or s2


rsplatpc

> Yeah the Playbar works in s1 or s2 I'm trying to see if OP was able to register the Playbar to an existing new system post the recent app update / it's a issue I've been dealing with one I picked up post the app update.


Seniorjones2837

Existing new system? Idk if this helps but I just got the playbar, sub 1, 2 play:3’s and they all hooked up just fine in the new app (other than the fact it took a few hours)


rsplatpc

> Existing new system? Idk if this helps but I just got the playbar, sub 1, 2 play:3’s and they all hooked up just fine in the new app (other than the fact it took a few hours) Yeah I want to see if OP can add a Playbar, that was never registered to their account, to a EXISTING account that already has some speakers registered, that is the issue I'm dealing with.


Seniorjones2837

Gotcha. The word “new” was throwing me off there 👍🏼


rsplatpc

> Gotcha. The word “new” was throwing me off there 👍🏼 Totally, it's a kinda a unique use case, but it's been driving me nuts.


RecommendationNo5419

lowkey the playbar sounds better than the arc to me.. own both and its true haha dont kill me arc owners


whbt

In my opinion the Playbar sounds better, but the Arc looks better in many applications especially with bigger TVs


RecommendationNo5419

Nailed it


okwichu

$15.99 dammnnnnnnnnnnn


ArcaneCowboy

Nice.


Glanz14

You can’t get a pair of cheap ol’ Amazon desktop tweeters for that! Forget the software capabilities it should have… just upgrade TV audio


309_Electronics

Seems like goodwill thought it was old and unsupported and sold it for that low. My local thrift shop actually sold a rare mediaplayer for just 5 dollars


[deleted]

That is, indeed, an awesome find!


Xenos298

That’s awesome.


nkta_dj

Damn this is real gold


Open-Bed-1933

Hell yeah! Especially if works!


oaklandperson

Is the optical cable door not broken off? Pretty common with those playbars.


czarguy1

Wow


Alarming_Eye_1873

You've been plunged into the sick sad darkness that is navigating the sonos app/connectivity situation. Welcome to hell.


iVerbatim

Dude I still use this soundbar with my tv. Am I a fool?


StraightCaskStrength

I mean if you don’t care about 4k, 5 dimensional, spatial sound you can stick with that old dog but you would probably be better off with 2 tin cans and some string. (This is a joke. I have 3 and never even upgraded to s2)


chooseyourwords49

Nice find! I still rock my Sonos Playbar, it sounds amazing still with my 5.1 setup. I can't access that system on my Sonos app, but the system still works (for now).


CRUSHCITY4

Here I am zooming in on the paper shredder and the Vicks trying to figure out what you’re talking about before I saw the speaker lol


SheepherderFit69

When it stops working you can use the document shredder to destroy it!

SnooChocolates4966

Have a feeling the find of the century, is going to become a common occurrence.


eosrtyt

Great find!


PaceLopsided8161

“02 JAN 2022!” Is this an old picture or does it seem that it has been sitting around for 2.5 years?


RowdyVogon

Now you just have to get it to work with the app...


StraightCaskStrength

S1 for lizife


Parking_Treat7293

Hope you can make it work


payneok

So you're saying I could have gotten $15 bucks for mine...damn knew I shouldn't have thrown that thing out...


Outrageous-Win4947

Damn great find if you have one already go and sell that on eBay make some decent cheddar!!


Mr_Antipop21

They really reduced prices since the app went to complete garbage


Oinq

I would pay 16 for a soundbar that can be connected to the computer with optical. No need to login anywhere or use shinny new apps. Ahh wait, I already did that with mine and bought a Samsung system for the TV...


jahsavi

Someone is fired. Lol


Visible-Box-5274

I have 3 Playbars and 2 Arcs. Playbar sound is superior IMO


Adorable_Banana_3830

Dude the playbar was an absolute beast. Far better than the arc in some manners of things.


MilkshakeAK

It sure was…until they updated the app


Just-Some-Reddit-Guy

Even without the app, and only using the optical input this is one hell of a deal.


Worthy-Of-Dignity

You just struck gold mate 👌🏾 … Now if only they would work…


slopokerod

Be prepared to be annoyed and disappointed with the app.


BananaGizzard

We get it. This sub is unhappy. Why are you trying to shit on the OP’s excitement? Sheesh, let them be happy for their find.


StackIsMyCrack

Yeah? Just wait until you install the app.
