Remember the brown sport band I showed a while back that we (myself included) concluded was likely a fake, despite having all the markings?
I found the original taobao listing just now, and worked out a way to get the original picture from the listing rather than a useless 80x80 thumbnail. the listing was deleted by taobao not too long after I bought the product. I made this purchase in January 2016. All of the colours pictured were released either in Spring 2015 or Fall 2015, except for the brown... and, oh wait, what's that in the top corner?
Seems odd that of all the shades of purple in the world, this would seem so close to the Ultra Violet band released 18 months later? Now I'm not sure... did I actually stumble on some early factory prototypes back then?

Please don't. I need to hold until mid-August. Not buying any stuffs. (Hopefully...)
That bright baby blue also wasn’t released I don’t think. I bet they’re just some really good early production fakes. I mean, the lugs just look off or unfinished on all of them.
I’m waiting for the CYR 2020 to finish so I can grab the new shirt on eBay haha
Actually-- I just noticed this band is 40mm not 44mm. I double checked my order, and Best Buy made a mistake, but they are now out of 44mm. 
Feeling stripey today, sadly only have one in 42mm...
I have to admit that Raspberry Red looks a bit disappointing as pictured here. It can’t compete with Rose Red and Dragon Fruit imho.
44/42mm Leather Loop A.W Band -Peacock on Mercari
Watch band is brand new with no visible wear or tear. Buyer beware, first pic of item is color accurate, can provide proof of original purchase for authenticity upon request. Please be advised this watch band is not one size and only fits medium sized wrists (see second image, press/click to...www.mercari.com
Sold already but it doesn’t say whether it’s the medium or large size.
Hyper Crimson/Neptune Green today:

I always forget which is the right word! I spent a while one day searching eBay confused why I wasn’t finding any! 😂
I bought these ones, courtesy of @athousandbands , who I believe got the rec in turn from someone else here. I like them except that they're designed for a 42mm watch, so they're a hair short on each side. Besides space black stainless, they also have lugs in space gray stainless (I think @athousandbands has these), gun black stainless, 18-karat yellow gold, matte rose gold aluminum and matte gold aluminum. Sadly he doesn't have any white ceramic lugs, nor does anyone else I can find, despite them appearing to be commonplace previously.
The “ceramic lugs” you linked to is just a ceramic band. Don’t think the lugs were ever sold separately.
No, look at the comments on the first post. The poster bought ceramic lugs separately. Additionally the second post is comparing white ceramic versus gray lugs on a white ceramic band.
EDIT: Also found an out of stock listing of the ceramic lugs themselves.

Original Yellow is being delivered today from chargerstore. I made the decision to sell both my Flash and Lemonade bands (Single buyer, hope he's not disappointed they're almost the same shade..) to a true yellow. Can't wait!
