The retained September 11, 2026 record describes ILS 799 for a black Sony WH-1000XM5 at BUG, with purchase eligibility unresolved. It supports no winner. Below are the exact limits of that record and a worked way to avoid confusing a different colour, a regional amount or a monthly payment with the same current offer.
Our archived notes record the same ILS 799 amount in two September 11 sessions, ending at 15:41 and 21:26 UTC. Those are session-end timestamps, not exact page-capture times or continuous coverage.
Only the narrow BUG historical fact remains public after the September 23 source review. No complete publicly inspectable capture establishes the historical stock, condition or tax basis, so the row is not a verified buyable offer.
For a current comparison, match one exact product and equivalent purchase terms first. Rank verified normalized item prices and disclose shipping separately; an unresolved eligibility field prevents a winning-deal claim.
Written by Muchita from a bounded September 2026 manual record. No retailer paid for inclusion and no affiliate commission is earned.

The retained case
What the historical record can support.
Our private observation notes describe the black WH-1000XM5 at BUG at ILS 799 twice on September 11. The sessions ended 5 hours 45 minutes apart. The table makes the provenance and missing fields explicit rather than treating a current product page as proof of those earlier observations.
The linked BUG page, reopened on October 4, identifies WH-1000XM5 and listing code 4548736132580. That corroborates the model/code now; it cannot authenticate the September stock-panel state, selected colour or purchase conditions.

Research update
Why no cross-store conclusion remains.
Other retailer rows and the downloadable comparison were removed on September 23 after a source review. No current retailer-price study was performed for this update.
A single incompletely qualified listing cannot show that another store was dearer, that a November discount will be real or that today's offer has the same conditions. Use the following invented case to check your own current comparison.
Worked decision
One model name, several different offers.
These amounts are invented teaching inputs, not observed Sony offers. Assume the shopper wants one new, complete black WH-1000XM5 headset, with the same currency, tax basis, delivery market and one-off purchase terms. Assume the item amounts include all applicable taxes.

A different colour is a different choice. Sony's specification page lists several colour options. If black is the requirement, a silver listing stays outside the identical-variant comparison even if its item amount is lower.
Regional and monthly amounts are different price bases. The linked BUG page labels a separate Eilat amount and a monthly instalment. Read eligibility and the full one-off amount; neither label alone establishes a comparable ordinary purchase.
Shipping is a separate field. The lower item amount retains its item-price position when shipping is higher or unknown. An unknown charge cannot support a numeric delivered total.
Your current offers
A blank offer worksheet.
Complete the identity and purchase fields before comparing amounts. A missing stock, condition, seller, tax or purchase requirement remains unknown. Record a date and URL for each offer; do not preload the historical ILS799 amount as today's price.
The button opens two blank ILS rows for the selected black XM5, with quantity 1 and the visible items unit. Enter only fresh seller evidence. The worksheet calculates your amounts; it does not verify model, stock or tax basis. Shipping stays separate, and a blank shipping field remains unknown.

Record two black XM5 offers
The two ILS price fields are blank. Manually enter your own checked offers for one new, complete black WH-1000XM5 headset. The worksheet does not verify these offers, their model or stock, and blank shipping stays unknown.
Apply this sequence to fresh offers. It is an editorial decision method, not a claim that the historical study verified every field or measured how long a check takes.
Fix one exact product.
Record full model/code, selected colour, package, quantity and condition. Sony's product page helps identify the model; it does not verify any retailer's offer.
Verify each current purchase.
Open the public offer and confirm seller, stock, required delivery market and full one-off item amount. Leave missing fields unknown.
Make purchase terms comparable.
Check currency, tax basis, membership and any finance, exchange, subscription or bundle requirements. A monthly or regional headline is not enough.
Disclose shipping separately.
Record free, a stated amount or unknown. Do not convert a blank shipping field into zero or a delivered total.
State only the conclusion supported.
Rank verified normalized item prices for eligible equivalent offers. If a required field is unresolved, name the gap instead of claiming a winner.
Questions and answers
Fair questions, plain answers.
Which store won the Sony XM5 check?
No winner is supported. Only one narrow historical BUG fact remains public, and its stock, condition and tax/purchase eligibility were incomplete. The worked comparison uses invented amounts and is not a retailer ranking.
Is ILS799 the current price?
It is the amount recorded in our September 11, 2026 notes. We did not conduct a fresh qualified-price study for this update. Reopen the current offer and confirm its conditions before buying.
How exact are the historical check times?
The archived notes give session-end timestamps of 15:41 and 21:26 UTC on September 11. They do not establish exact page-capture times, continuous price coverage or what changed between the two sessions.
Why is the old download absent?
Other retailer rows and the downloadable comparison were withdrawn after a September 23 source review. They are not republished; the remaining page is a limited case note and a method for your own current offers.
Can I compare a silver XM5 or an Eilat amount with the black ordinary offer?
Not as an identical confirmed offer merely because the family name matches. Fix the required colour and check regional eligibility and tax basis. The product and purchase conditions must match before comparing item amounts.
Does shipping decide the item-price winner?
No. Rank verified normalized item prices for eligible equivalent offers, then disclose shipping separately. Unknown shipping stays unknown; it prevents a numeric delivered total, not the item-price comparison.
