can't find a nectarine sport band in 40mm for a 'normal' price ? (Best buy has the sport loop version in stock surprisingly)

Bought Midnight Blue Sport Band, Seashell Sport Loop, and Product Red Sport Band today at Walmart for $13/ea. Most of box of what they had (~ 100) was that price.

Not sure if anyone posted this yet, but Best Buy appears to have quite a few bands from the “we found a bunch of old bands in a warehouse” drop earlier this fall currently listed for $30. They also have a bunch of the Spring and Summer 2020 bands (ie Midnight Turquoise/Aurora Green, World Indigo, etc) back in stock and some of those are on sale.

Currently on sale for $30 - For the older bands, look in the combined Sport Band or Sport Loop listings for the discounted price. The individual listings often still show the $50 price.

38/40 mm
  • Cactus sport band
  • Surf Blue sport band
  • Anchor Gray sport loop
  • Pearl Woven Nylon
  • Pink Pinstripe Woven Nylon (was this in the original drop?)

42/44 mm
  • Cactus sport band
  • Spearmint sport band
  • Hibiscus sport band
  • Grapefruit sport band
  • Cape Cod Blue sport loop
  • Nike Celestial Teal sport loop
  • Nike Olive Flak sport loop
  • Anchor Gray sport loop
  • Soft Pink Classic Buckle

Dude! I wonder if the one classic buckle that slipped in there was a misprice. Otherwise that's a gigantic discount. Totally just snagged one.

Direct link for anyone else who doesn't want to hunt through best buy's horrible listing interface:

Yeah it was already listed at $50, which was a 66% discount right there. Picking it up in new condition from a retailer for $30 is just bonkers. Must really have been an unpopular color.

I would grab it if I knew I’d wear it, but I know I won’t.

Full set, i found a nike series 2 for 100, band seems to be in great shape. I’ll just trade in the watch for a gift card.
Seems like a hassle to buy a watch and flip it just to get a band (unless it's something really rare and valuable like a Celestial Teal or Ultraviolet). If you keep your eyes peeled, I'm sure a band will come along at a decent price.

True! Thank you for talking sense to me, i’ve been impulse buying recently.

Thanks! i already got this band if i didn’t you know i’ll buy this in a heartbeat haha. Too bad I missed out on your flat silver/volt about a month ago.
Ah, sorry I though you were looking at a Flat Silver/White, not Volt. That's a bit more rare, but I still wouldn't buy a watch just to get it. I've seen a handful pop up on various sites over the past few months.
