You can return them to the store where you got them for a refund and buy the color you want, or sell them someplace like ebay and buy the color you want. Or maybe you can get lucky and find someone who wants blue and has SG Tat will trade.

AirPods Max Pre-Order / Order / Delivery Thread

Well I caved and just placed an order. I'll have them Sunday. I do hope they are worth the coin! I have a some Bowers & Wilkins PX7 headphones that I like. The sound is decent, but I'm hoping I'll find the sound on the Apple Max even better. Anyone out there experience both these headphones? I guess I can always return them if I don't find a clear advantage over the B&W headphones.
I also just caved. AirPods Pro 189 at Amazon (had a 10 Amazon credit already, used 7$ on my amex points) with tax 190 out the door. Be here Wednesday.
200 was the line I just wouldn’t spend right now. But it hit acceptable so I can live with this cost especially as I needed hands free phone capability and ANC sometimes.

they were 159$ yesterday at costco. pricing mistake
159 would’ve been sweet! I’d have jumped on it immediately if I’d have seen it. Unfortunately, Costco (like Walmart and Amazon) is 189 now too.
(I like a low price and wait and wait, but once I see a price I like and pull the trigger on the buy, I try not to play the ‘it’s cheaper somewhere else now’ pricing regret game ?).
yup and I will prefer buying anything from costco over any other place!! I bought my AirPods Pro for 200$ I think from costco!
My past experience with Costco is they are A++ on electronics. If at all possible I’d use Costco for every TV purchase refresh cycle. Their policy and support on TVs are best in class outstanding. (Off topic, their in store butcher/steaks was A+ outstanding too)
Unfortunately I now live too far away from any Costco so I let the membership lapse. Now I’m relegated to waiting for the right price from a place like Abe’s (up front taxless) and buy with Amex to get the 1 year extended warranty. That’s unless I hit an impatient moment ? — if a place like Amazon hits the right price threshold (but I don’t pay for Prime either).
After some hesitation, i received my APM today.. amazon gave a pretty tempting quote i couldnt resist =) Being green.. well fitting, haptic joy, very sweet sound quality for my ears.. so far the only drawback is their sweatiness .. but the rest is happy customer =D
Taken the plunge and gone for a set of Space Grey APMs, collecting tomorrow.
AirPods Max grey, in stock for immediate delivery here for £439 + £4.99 shipping, may suit someone in the UK https://www.hdewcameras.co.uk/apple-airpods-max-space-grey-13897-p.asp

Received my Space Grey APMs today. All I can say is wow. Best headphones I've ever used.
After some days of usage, some calls, some music, a movie, i still enjoy the APM 🎧 very much. The 'happy customer' feeling still is there =)
i guess, the exact point, where both cans occasionally hit each other, when being put back into the sleeping bra, will suffer over time. But as the cans feel like being built quite massive, this will be only cosmetic wear and tear. i might try a casing, but as i generally don't like covers on such devices very much (as they will have an negative impact to its haptic), i will end accepting the wear and tear and try to be a little cautious.
Thank you dear macrumors community for convincing me to overcome my previous hesitation! 👍

Finally ordered the blue pair for delivery Monday from Sync in the uk - on sale for £449. Was my buy point given some old kit getting sold soon. Got AirPods Pro currently, hoping to hear some improvement but mainly looking forward to not having something in my ears all day while I work
I got mine from Best Buy a few weeks ago.... I love them but I can hear a slight popping noise sometimes when I'm listening to music or watching Youtube videos. I'm assuming that's not normal?
Snagged a pair like new on eBay for £290. Not absolutely blown away but they are very good. Got the silver ones which I love the look of, just hope they hold up okay over time.
amazing price, just remember to clean them often because some members here say they hold up well if u maintain them well (don't have APM in Silver to confirm but look through the threads)
dont be this guy:
Apple won't replace/repair stained Silver AirPods Max
Hi everyone! A friend of mine suggested posting this here. I am super frustrated so please bear with me. I received my Silver AirPods Max back in January as a gift and I've been 100% satisfied with them. A few months into owning them I noticed the ear cushions were getting pretty dirty so I...

I hadn’t heard of Sync until I read your post. The sale price was good, so I ordered a silver pair of Airpods Max from them a few days ago. They arrived today and are great.
Called and asked for it. thats it. he gave me a 50 off 500 code right on phone, all because I asked for it.
I added Kirkland dishwasher tablets to make it 501.- looks like space grey is out of stock now though.
