I’m nowhere near a Costco; I’ve never been to one. I was hoping the Best Buy ones might be a good in between option when they come out.

I'm actually really interested what region do you live in that is nowhere near a Costco but has a best buy.

Also she still needs to have them properly adjusted by an audiologist. If you want the best results.

I think I heard Best Buy was planning on having people available to fit and adjust them properly. My mom had a pair once that was around $7k. It cost her a lot of her savings and they just stopped working. The place she got them from said something about ‘she probably messed w them and broke them’ and basically refused to honor the contract to replace them.
