The fact you guys are happy with it are you at least leaving negative feedback? I mean he's just gonna keep having a relative die off every week and have an excuse
 
My PayPal shows the same email and Blake's trading. I just wish I would have gotten a tracking number by now. Are there any reference numbers tied to your shipment? I tried to use the eBay transaction and item numbers but neither yielded any results.
I use the myfedex service and it shows when a package is coming to your address. I also sent an email to the seller and said unless I had a tracking number by end of business I was going to contact eBay/paypal.

I signed up for that earlier this week and it says I have no scheduled deliveries. Wondering if this means I should start to worry...

I would wait a little bit. Mine popped up on my eBay and my fedex. I am guessing they are getting these bands in lots and that is the real delay. Remember eBay and Paypal have your back. No delivery and they will refund your money. Thats what prompted me to take a chance on the auction. I just wish the seller was a little more upfront about delays. I think people would understand. It's just the generic family member passing that is ridiculous.
 
I received my link bracelet. Definitely genuine 42mm, comes in the generic white replacement box. I'm honestly curious how he gets so many of these
Sadly mine came today while I am traveling for business. I'll check it out when I get home and report back. I'm assuming it will be genuine.
 
I finally got home from my work trip and can confirm that it is indeed a genuine apple band with engraving. Came in the generic box and envelope.

I would reach out to them one last time and let them know tomorrow you are going to file with eBay and paypal if you don't have a shipped band. Hope you get it!
 
I know it's late but I wanted to offer a quick update. I never heard from the seller and ended up having to cancel the sale and get a refund. It's disappointing as I really wanted the item but it is what it is. I'm glad not everyone had the same poor experience I did.

I saw that the seller is no longer selling them. My guess is that they got caught exploiting the loophole that they used. I am sorry you missed out on a little risky but good deal. At least you got your money back.

My recent experience may shed some light on this. I received a defective band from Apple and arranged for a replacement. The package I received by FedEx was **completely empty**! It took about 2 weeks to get this straightened out with Apple. Apple is investigating, but I suspect "loophole" is not the word they would use.
 
Has anyone seen this person around eBay anymore? I wonder if they made another account with a different name. I'd like to buy an original SS silver link bracelet 42mm for that price he was offering.
 
I doubt that these were stolen outright, he was more likely exploiting a loophole in the warranty process or had someone inside placing bogus replacement orders. It's quite possible the loophole has been closed, inside guy got fired, or the source just dried up.
 
Hadn't used my space black link in a while (mostly the Milanese, leather loop and sports lately), and using it again today noticed the vibrations are so loud with this bracelet! Is it the fact that it's metal, or that I use it a bit on the loose side? Just wondering if others have noticed it, or is it mine becoming faulty? Any feedback appreciated...
 
I don't mean to sound off but, what do you mean by vibrations? as in the band rattles when shaken?

Yes, wrong choice of words... :) when I receive a notification and the haptic vibration occurs, the band rattles, I assume, and makes a very audible noise.
One of the things I love about the Apple Watch is that when it vibrates, no one around me can hear, except with the link bracelet...
 
I have the silver link bracelet and it does not rattle when haptic notifications happen regardless if its on tight or loose. You must have some bada$$ haptic in your watch!
 
The 42mm silver stainless steel is now marked unavailable in Apple Store in the UK and Germany. They had waiting times recently, but are now just unavailable.

I wonder what that could mean? Maybe just a site update?
