Nice! Just got my Chargerstore order delivered, placed Aug 30, got today - that's not bad... Unfortunately for me, I ordered 3 bands and the package only had 2 of them. I sent him an email thru eBay to let him know. First time in quite a few orders with him that this has happened. We're all only human. I know he'll make it right.

Charger got back to me, he says his partner did not tell him they were out of stock on it. He apologized (a kind gesture these days) and refunded the purchase price back to me today. So now to stalk more bands with a little more money to spend......
 
Well I’ve now thrown just about everything I can think of at this sport loop, one half came up to the original pink pearl colour but the other half is still a dingy grey colour with what looks like a faded sweat stain 🤢 😟

How much did you pay for your band, if I may ask.
 
I don’t ship often, but when I do, it’s to make Christmas come early for one very special collector...

Just wondering if anyone could post a picture of the Pebble sport band next to the Light Gray (titanium edition) sport band? My eyes are getting old and they look pretty close using Apple's "hero" shots..... Thanks in advance!
 
Orange/crimson/red...our wallets they are yours, Tim! It could be so simple. Both your favorite companies get paid. Congress off your back (probably). We’ll even boycott Epic!

Ha! I’m already boycotting Epic. I never played Fortnite, but I was looking for something new to play last week and had a read about something - I forget what - and moved on when I saw it was an Epic game. To be fair in part because I don’t want to lose support for it if the situation gets worse, but also I’m over hearing all the whiners asking to get to use what Apple has built up over 12+ years entirely for free so they can reach a huge market.

I had that happen to me with Cornflower, but before it was shipped. They offered me a more expensive band for the same price, and I took Concrete as it was only the next tier up in their pricing, which I thought was fair.

I really wish you hadn’t; it’s too much fun hearing him say how he desperately needs it :D

no way, you have the exclusive foot band??? I need one of those for collection purposes only. (too smelly to wear most of the time)

Noo, now I’m visualizing a new trend or wearing the Watch on the ankle...

There was a moment where I was pondering a switch from adult rec league hockey to basketball and I came very close to testing an ankle worn sport loop to ensure calorie counting.
 
Falling behind, so I’m gonna catch up a bit this Sunday morning.

Friday’s band — from Fall ‘18, black 2nd gen sport band. Like its white stablemate, it’s a little “less” than the first generation. I find I prefer the first-gen black and white bands to the second gen.

And yesterday’s band — moving forward a year to Fall ‘19 for my new Light Gray sport band. Very nice for a neutral.

Sunday’s coming up soon.... and we’re counting down the hours to Watchbandmas.
 
I need some advice. So I just got a new, unopened Pink Stripe woven nylon in a sealed box, but when I just opened it I found that the color of the pink stripes had bled into the white!

For anyone who has this one, is that how it looks on yours as well?

It doesn’t have that clean crisp look of the pic on the box. :(

eta: Hmmm, I just looked at every open box pic of this band on eBay and Mercari, and one I was able to find in this thread, and they all have the pink bleed. So, I guess this was a manufacturing error? Wow. I don't want to go through the trouble of trying to return it and buying another sealed one if it'll just be the same...

No it’s just the style. Def very unique...I would say it’s grown on me but I’m too afraid to wear any of my stripe nylons for fear of getting them dirty.

Nope, they’re all like that. I think it’s an aging issue.
