I thought I'd create a thread just for sales on Apple bands/loops/etc because I was always on the lookout for them and they seemed to get lost in other threads.

There's a 20% off sale at Best Buy for bands, leather, loops, & Milanese.

Apple Watch Bands - Best Buy

Shop Best Buy for a great selection of Apple Watch bands available in a variety of styles and colors.

Is the $99 the new price for the Milanese loop elsewhere?

I noticed shortly after purchasing, the price on the Nike band went back up.

Man, this is a good time to be buying Apple Watch bands! Looks like Best Buy's 20% off sale from earlier this month is back on again! Sale includes some discontinued colors and some nicer bands like the Milanese Loop and leather bands (including a few Classic Buckles!). Before I get to the list, the Nike Olive Flak sport loop I posted yesterday is back to being sold out. Hope someone was able to snag it!

As one of the permanent watch bands the retailers don’t really have reason to ever discount them, I would think. The flip side is they’re super over-supplied on the secondary market, especially if you’re willing to go open box, which is a tiny bit worrying on a white band, I know. I’m seeing them for ten pounds off on UK eBay...hopefully the shipping inside the UK is less than the ten pounds it’s giving for US.

But if you diligently check eBay, hopefully it shows up for you with a nice 20 quid slash. Not sure if it’s as robust as the rainbow of random pawn shop/wholesalers we have here in the most random southern states.

edit: the Best Buy site for us Americans decided to wait to show the discount until after I hit post, disproving my point a little haha

That almost makes me want to get 2 more!

It's a great band!

I’ve always viscerally hated this band between my dislike of high contrast black Nike perforations and that this looks like very hospital scrub blue but my lust for a deal and latent “gotta have em all” Nike compulsion has me feeling very weak
