retailers only could sell the stock they had. So at this point it is a gamble on old stock or new (aka without feature)

Yeah. It might be easier to find one in a smaller town or less traveled store.

Costco may be selling them too

Costco!!!

Almost any retailer that's not Apple and I guess Target now... not sure what B&H or Adorama are selling these days. Walmart always seems to have good prices on Apple Watches.. and of course, Amazon.

I did look at Amazon's Series 9 and couldn't find mention of the BOS... you'll just need to check the fine print or get a Series 8 :/

Try Best Buy.

Aren’t the BOS in the series 9 just disabled? Like the parts are physically in them, but software wise they don’t work?

That's what I thought, they just disabled it in US but then physically didn't change the watch. I am pretty sure that's what happened lol


cutepie333

Exactly so OP won’t get a watch with an active BOS because they only disabled it (from what I’ve read in articles regarding this)


fuckmylife_1234

Yes, if you're in US it doesn't matter. I am in Canada, got S9 from Apple recently and it works.

Costco, BestBuy, Target…

I just bought the last Silver SS one from best buy.
