I’d like to purchase an Apple Watch (first time!) as a gift and didn’t see a material difference between the series 8 and series 9 so I figure it makes sense to look for a new in box series 8 but was surprised that it wasn’t being sold many places and the savings were only about $50. I’d like to stick to a traditional retailer and avoid Amazon, eBay, etc just to reduce the risk of fraud somewhere along the way with a sizable purchase like this but wanted to see if the community here had any advice? If it was for me, I’d get gently used or refurnished but since it’s a gift I’m sticking to new, in box. But I guess if I can’t find any real savings on a new series 8 is it worth the $50 for a series 9? Any advice on where to look for an 8 would be appreciated! Thanks!
