Got my $15 band practice band. Came in a medium flat rate. I’m pretty sure the seller ended up negative on that one.

I’m sorry, but that’s just insanely humorous. It’s like renting a truck to pick up the weekly groceries.

Totally. I’m still trying to figure out the why.

I’m really vibing off the (unintentional?) artistry of the photo. Feels like a production still from my forthcoming Pixar film about sentient watch bands.

Unintentional artistry. Let’s see the trailer to that film!
 
Best Buy added a 40mm Hyper Grape Sport Loop Band to their list of $49.99 bands they recently put up for sale.
I grabbed one!

:D:D:D:D
Thank you! Off to use Best Buy gift cards woohoo!

OK, be careful all. After I placed the order, when I looked in my account I saw that this band had been changed to a Hibiscus 44mm! WTF? Just cancelled, I'll try again...

Second try seems to have worked. That was weird!

Open box but appears to be in good condition. Flamingo sport band 42mm $22.50 shipped.

 
Got my Best Buy order today. All the bands were the right models. However, the boxes on half of them were beat up, and three of them were not sealed (although they seemed unused inside). I spent an hour (on hold and chatting) with Best Buy to request open box pricing on the ones that were... you know... open. They refused and said even if they are open, they are still considered "new." Whaaaat...?

I wouldn’t settle for that as an answer. Bring up how the site literally has an entirely different section for “Open box, excellent condition” items.
 
Anyone’s order from Best Buy delayed, I ordered in October 13 and USPS last update is October 18 in transit, arriving late.

Yeah, I cut and pasted their definitions of "Open Box" right from their web site. The rep didn't care.
Ask to speak to their manager. When the manager answers the phone, ask to speak to their manager. Repeat this process until you have a meeting with the CEO. Once that’s arranged, demand he hand over all his watch bands. It’s foolproof!
