Best case scenario, we both get one. Ok scenario - one of us get one. Worst case - we both get nada. I'm hoping for best case myself, as it appears we both really want that cornflower blue loop. Good luck!

well they put up a tracking number so i presume that ill be getting one, what about you?

They provided a tracking number. The USPS website shows it as “label created”. I’ll wait until USPS indicates that they have accepted a package before being too happy. Just overly cautious on my end after hearing from some peeps earlier in the buying frenzy from 1to3. 😐

The link bracelet deal isn’t quite as good as what we got from our eBay seller. But you do get the option of an easy return if you don’t like the band by going through Amazon.

I’m seeing another $4.30 off at checkout on Milanese 40mm loop, meaning the real price is $81.69.

our eBay seller is actually out of the nectarine loops, I am so bummed😢
Click to expand...
Is the 1to3 store kinda slow to respond? They sent me a message yesterday morning saying they were actually out of stock of the nectarine loops, and if i wanted any other color. I immediately replied asking what loops in 40mm they actually had. Coming up on 24 hours, and no response.


EDIT:
Aaaaand, I got a reply with a link their woven nylons. I ordered a sport loop, I asked what sport loops they have in 40mm. I don’t mind dealing with folks who don’t speak perfect English and I do understand that inventory errors do happen, but it’s not inspiring confidence in me to have to go around in circles like this.

Anyone have any dealings with Best Buy ‘open box’ offerings? Looking at a few and am curious if I should try or run away. Thanks for any recommendations.

I have bought a few Best Buy open box items and they have all been like brand new. I guess it can be a hit or a miss. You have 14 days to return for a full refund. So you have nothing to lose. It is worth trying.

Also, since they have a 14 day refund time limit, the person that originally bought it, they could not have had it longer than 14 days.
