Found what looked like a brand new, genuine 42mm Electric Pink sport loop on Mercari. I got a pretty good fake delivered (see attached). I've never seen a fake one with the size stamped on it like this. Be careful out there, folks...
So weird how this is now the 3rd fake Electric Pink I’ve seen on here! Never seen that with another color, just the Electric Pink.

Worked fine for me. Anyone have good experiences ordering OEM bands from Newegg? Looks like a 3rd party seller, so could be a crap shoot?
Yeah never ordered from this seller so can’t say if they’re genuine. The seller had a bunch of other bands that I posted a month or so back. Most of those are gone but a few like that midnight blue are still up. The lavender gray is a new listing. It may not come with a box as one of the pictures shows the band loose. But, at that price, you’re not taking much of a risk.
 
Newegg is legit, however not sure of what I just bought for $12 shipped haha. Great deal if OEM, if not, i won’t be that upset

They have buyer protection similar to eBay or Amazon if it doesn’t work out?
 
Didn’t realize fakes one had the size on it. I was using that to determine if a band was OEM or not. What was the giveaway? Is Electric Pink in high demand? Now I’m wary buying second hand.

The lugs are painted metal (Apple's are plastic), and the band is just slightly skinnier (so it moves between the edges of the lugs). You can't tell any of this by looking at the photos.
