Why so many headphones for sale with less than 10 hours of listening time?


I've been in the market for a new pair of headphones recently, but have noticed that an unusually high percentage for sale are classified as "mint with less than 10 hours of listening time".  What gives?  How could anyone possibly make an accurate assessment on something with less than 10 hours involved?  Audeze is one of the brands I'm considering, but it seems like this is the one that has the most for sale with little time involved.  Could it be a comfort thing?  Any insight would be appreciated.

I read a review of several premium headphones by Herb Reichert in Stereophile a few issues back. He tried out several of the big players and was pretty consistent in mentioning how deep into the music this new generation of headphones can be. When he got to a pair of Audioquest Nighthawks, they sounded dull and closed in. He called AQ to find out what's up with 'em and they said the 'Hawks need serious break-in time. So Herb let 'em run in for several days I think. When he put them back on for a listen, they became one of his favorites of the bunch he reviewed, and they were near the bottom of that bunch's price range. 

Ten hours is not nearly enough, and headphone diaphragms have tiny, delicate movements. It stands to reason that just a little bit of suspension stiffness could really make them sound dull and uninvolving.
Johnny- that has been my experience (with break in) and one of the reasons I started this thread.....to see if anyone else noticed a difference after a long break in period.
