Solo Loop Hunting (Discontinued/Discounts)

[snapplecrisp]

I know folks don’t typically post Solo Loops or Braided Solo Loops in the Discounts/Sales of OEM Bands thread because it’s such an individualized market, but I was wondering if other folks would be interested in a support thread for the hunt for discontinued/discount solo loops.

I know some folks decided long ago not to rely on resale discounts because of the sizing factor, but I’m newer to collecting. Finding solos on the resale market can be a needle in a haystack, but since I’m already on the lookout, I frequently come across bands that someone else might be absolutely psyched to find. I just don’t know who else is looking and for what sizes/colors/etc. 😝

I’d love to start a separate thread — perhaps a mix of “here are my sizes and wishlist” and then sharing purchase links? I guess I’ll just add my info in the comments, if anyone is interested.

QUICK EDIT — if this has already been discussed or set up in another thread, please just direct me there! Many thanks.

…plus I love steep discounts of any color, whether discontinued or still available at Apple. Nothing more satisfying than a good yoink.

I’ve purchased from MacBlowouts on eBay and they have many discounts on solo and braided apple bands. Never disappointed with any purchases I’ve made from them
