Ya that's a fair point, but the flip side is that there are people in the comments ready to preorder, also without having tried the product. There's something cringy to me about that level of blind brand loyalty.
Even if things are returned, they can often end up in landfills still (though I doubt that would happen with these $500 headphones). https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/marketplace-amazon-returns-1....
