This is probably more of a hopeful WTB. I have a pair of Apple AirPods 3rd gen but have unfortunately lost the charging case. 

 

If anyone has a charging case that no longer need could you please drop us a message. I appreciate that if you have a case that probably means you have lost your AirPods so sorry about that. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Assume you are looking for a cheaper option, but incase you are aware, apple does have a service that allows the replacement of a single air pod or the case for a fee, scroll at the below link. Ended up the route we went when my spouse lost a single airpod.

Also, 3rd party aftermarket replacement cases seem to be a thing (and a heap cheaper):

Of course if you can pair yourself with a person who has lost their same generation airpods but still has the case, that would be prefect.

Thanks for the details, strangely I hadn't thought about 3rd party products. 

 

Will look into that. 

 

Cheers.

Airpods or Airpods Pro? I do have an old Airpods Pro (USB) charge case, (broke 1 in half, other is still good) which were replaced by insurance a year ago.

Although I don't know the legality around 'betterment' if I do sell it? I don't want to raise the ire of insurance companies!

Unfortunately, its just the regular AirPod 3s. Non pro version.
