Discounts / Sales on OEM bands

my question is, doesnt apple usually do like a 6% cash reward or interest free on device purchases when going through apple directly with the apple card? does it work out to be a better deal this way?

That's what they did when I bought my Series 5 last December. I think it was a limited offer of 6%, normally was 3%.

Correct. The normal amount is 3%. The 6% was a special holiday promo. This amounts to 9% off.

I personally think they will wait to announce it with the iPhone. I'm guessing its the iPad Air and maybe the watch bands... released the bands before the watch?

Sheesh, I was so excited for next week........

Don’t extinguish hope yet- prosser says something’s coming in 4 days.

But wouldn’t we have seen/heard about an invite or something by now? Virtually obviously.

Jon Prosser has never said there would be an event so there would be no invite. He claims the new iPad and AW Series 6 will be released Tuesday morning via press release, like the SE was. No event.

Hmmm, ok well I guess time will tell since there are disputing rumors. Ugh.

L0vetodream in the same day as the “no watch this month” tweet tweeted that Apple was cancelling the iPhone 12 and instead buying McDonalds. Both him and Jon have fairly equal track records so I’m not personally putting any money on this mysterious anonymous Twitter leaker.

I tried to buy 5 $100 gift cards through Best Buy but they canceled two because quantity limits.

I bought four virtual and one physical card and all were delivered (well the physical shipped). I think it’s also valid in store so if they cut you off online you can go online.

Geez... I've been looking to purchase a 44mm Cactus Sport Band for a few weeks now. Two sellers on Mercari have them open box for $40 but won't budge on the price. This is a current band, which means Best Buy routinely sells them for $39 brand new. Why would anyone buy them used for $1 more?

Ive seen a few pop up on eBay for $29-35.

We’ll probably see it relisted soon by @kryptticAZ if you still need one @OctoChicken 😂

I have one, but thanks! My lone remaining Sport Loop is Close Your Rings...

Heads up: Best Buy just started a sale for Labor Day where if you order $100 in Apple Gift Cards you get a $10 BB gift card for free. Apple Gift Cards (formerly iTunes GC) can now be used for physical product purchases and there are new bands and the Series 6 on the way very soon...

Thank you! Got me three of them 😇

Hmmm... the "Make Offer' button on Mercari seems to be gone. Anyone else seeing this?

I’m still seeing it. The button only shows up on listings where the seller has a version of the app that supports offers, so that could be why you’re not seeing it.

I can see the “Make Offer” button on a celestial teal loop someone just posted.🙂

I see the button on the app on my iPhone, but when I visit Mercari using the latest version of Safari on my Mac, it's not there (for the same item). Weird, because it's been there up until now...

Hahah. Yeah, someone contacted me and asked so I listed it.
