LOL. I've flipped and flopped on bands.

Has 41 Ceramic. Didn't wear it much.
CV19 came. Started using it more for text on the go mainly. Treated myself to a smaller TI.
I started collecting bands. Figured never was going to go with a larger casing so accumulated a decent stash of color ways in the smaller.

Then S7 came out. Loved the 45. Recollected most of my favorite colors in the Larger Bands and while I'm at this, I've been double dipping.

This old dinosaur never bought from Mecari. 2+ decades Ebayer her tho.
platform/searching, alerts is eh....
If you watch it like a hawk, deals here and there can be found. But u need to watch it like a hawk...
Mercari works great in the IOS apps platform. iPad suck. There is no native iPad app. And using it o the computer, it's like molasses.

Ok so just not into owning more than one watch at once. Not insane yet. I’m sending my Space White Ceramic in for a new battery and it had to be un-paired to initiate the repair and I feel weird only having three modern watches going.
 
fwiw, and I'm sure you already know. They're sending you a *refurb/new one* - for the one you are sending back. You won't be getting back your original one - hence the unpair.

Whatever makes it usable for my $90. Mostly worried they’ll refuse to service it as the issue is somewhat nuanced: it shuts down when cellular is on and the battery is in the 70s or 80s and gives a snake screen til plugged into an apple charging brick.

Part of me wonders if I should be rooting for this non-serviceable outcome, keep my $90, turn off the Verizon plan, and just wear one watch for phone-free dog walks…

Feels like they’ll see the battery health is 85 and send it back untouched. At which point do I give up as above or start charging it constantly and wear it down to 79? My GSS is at 81 health and also shuts down randomly, but will boot back up on my wrist, say it’s at 10% and then work just fine for awhile, not actually being at 10%. I just turned off its Verizon plan.

41mm Red5 Sport Loop - $28 obo

 
Just wanted to say thanks for posting. When I ordered shortly after your post, the 40mm I wanted was $19, and the 44 was $29. When I checked a couple days later they were both $39, and have been at that price since. Glad I jumped on it!

Well, that didn’t last long. Stupid sleep.

EDIT: There was THREE of them??? o_O
All leather links have been eminently yoinkable and quickly after their release but Sequoia has been especially bedumpened. Must somehow relate to the sales of GrAlum, which based on wholesaler stock and price on eBay are not doing well.

Except 41mm S/M. Still haven’t found that size for as cheap as the rest.
