Personally, I'd wait for a price you like at Costco, as those come with Applecare+ and Costco, being the awesome company they are, will always take them back down the line if something happens even outside of warranty.

Support the great retailers!

Walmart has the same sale.
I think Best Buy, Target ? and Amazon all have some kind of algorithm to price match instantaneously because this seems to be the first year that that has been the case - at least with these rock-bottom prices and the spontaneousness with which the prices become replicated amongst them

It seems like $199 is the ‘standard’ go-to discount price for these - for a good portion of last year, Amazon almost continuously discounted them to that price

I bought my 2nd gen USB-C pros (within 2 weeks of official release) because Amazon had already discounted them that quickly by $50 - that standard ‘year-round’ Amazon price:

It's hard for me to believe that they have 2x better ANC than APP2. I use foam tips on my APP2 and I don't hear nearly as many things as I do when I wear the APP3. The fit is also bad with all the tips, constantly adjusting them in my ears. Returning these and keeping the APP2.
