I'm looking to buy AirPods 4 and noticed that they cost $129 directly from Apple. However, I can't have them delivered at my apartment because delivery services are a hassle for me. I found that Amazon has them for $80, and Target and Walmart also list them at the same price. I'm puzzled about why there's such a big price difference. Is there a catch with buying from Amazon or Target? What makes the price so much lower compared to Apple?

Great point about checking the listings. Sometimes on Amazon, you may find options that seem cheaper but are actually from lesser-known sellers. Stick to well-known retailers for peace of mind. If the prices are really low, they could be too good to be true. Just keep an eye out for that when making your purchase!
Apple rarely has sales, so you're not going to see those discounts there. Retailers like Walmart and Amazon often have sales during events like Black Friday, so that's where you're getting the lower prices. Just remember to look for the 'sold by' details on Amazon to make sure you're getting genuine products and not something potentially fake from a third party.
It's pretty common for retailers to have sales, and sometimes they just have lower prices than Apple. Target often has sales that end on weekends, but Amazon and Walmart might just be offering a good deal without a specific promotion. Just make sure to buy from Authorized Resellers; Target and Walmart fit that bill, and you can trust Amazon as long as the seller is verified. Check who is selling the AirPods on Amazon, and ensure they're authorized, too!
