What is a Sony WH-1000XM5 worth?

What it sells for

Half the Sony WH-1000XM5 sales in this set closed above $120 and half below it. The middle of the range runs $102.12 to $138.16: that band is the number to price against, not the single highest sale you can find.

Condition changes the number

A refurbished example took a median of $159.99; a pre-owned one took $109.99, a spread of $50 on the same model. If you are pricing yours, find your condition in the table first and ignore the rest.

What moves the price up or down

• The spread is wide. The priciest sale here ($177.11) went for 4.3× the cheapest ($41.20). A gap that size is rarely the market being irrational, it is usually condition, completeness, or what came in the box.
• Where you sell it matters. These comps come from eBay. The same item moves at different prices, and different speeds, depending on the audience, and a local sale trades some of the price for not shipping it.
• Recency. 108 matching sales among all 235 sales eBay lists for this search from the last 90 days, closing between Oct 4, 2026 and Nov 7, 2026.

The sales behind this number

Every row is a real completed sale on a public marketplace. The links go to the original listings, which the marketplace may eventually remove.

How current is this?

We collected these comps on Nov 7, 2026 (1 days ago), and the most recent sale in the set closed on Nov 7, 2026. We do not re-fetch prices every time someone opens this page: refreshing costs real money at every marketplace, so these pages are rebuilt on a schedule rather than on demand. Treat a set older than about three months as a starting point, not an appraisal.
