If you're looking to purchase two HomePods to set up a stereo pair, you can save more money as well. Buying two White HomePods at once will knock $10 off the price of each speaker ($194.99/speaker), while buying two Space Gray HomePods will take $6 off each speaker ($201.99/speaker).
OWC's HomePods are new and come in non-retail packaging, meaning you'll receive them in a nondescript box instead of Apple's official packaging. These HomePods are covered under one year of OWC's Fulfilled Limited Warranty instead of Apple's warranty coverage.
Both colors of the HomePod are in stock and available to ship today. Free shipping is available with an estimated five to eight business days for the delivery, depending upon your location.

Perhaps not, but until a full explanation is provided I have trouble viewing this without any suspicion or concern. If OWC is selling these at below cost to reward its customers, why not sell them intact in the Apple wrapper? I am ready to be corrected but until OWC is open and public with how this works I place them in the range of my third cousin ?This is a good point.
I am curious as to how these are labeled as new but I would not assume it is a scam or shady. Other World Computing has been in business for a LONG time and is a very reputable company in the Apple Universe. They stand by what they sell.
Please clarify. What do you mean by "these are owned by OWC"? Aren't all products not sold directly by Apple "owned" by another company before you get them? I am very curious about why they don't have the original packaging or warranty but I am also curious as to why you consider these "owned by OWC."
Again, OWC is a very trustworthy company. Definitely nothing like your third cousin ;)
Hmmm...may be a new way for Apple to dump a failed product that very few people want. If so, typical approach for the non-transparent Apple.This is a good point.

So, I was just looking at the OWC site, and it clearly states, "New, Bulk (Non-Retail) Packaging"
Now, we may definitely not be used to Apple selling products in this manner, but selling items in bulk packaging that are not labeled for individual retail sale is a very common retail practice and those items are new. Not typical for Apple products but not unheard of in retail.
