That said, I have two Alpine bands. I find them as comfortable as the Trail Loop. Takes an extra 30 seconds to put it on. I really like the Alpine bands.

I ordered an Apple Trail Loop Band sold and shipped by Amazon. The green dot Apple seal tape was missing. That means it had been opened, returned to Amazon, and shipped to me as new. Initially, I didn't realize it was a fake. Within 4 weeks, it started unraveling. I then purchased the same band from the Apple store. While the Amazon band had no markings, the Apple band did, including "49mm" on the metal. The metal was silver colored, not titanium. At the request of Chase, I took it to the Apple Store, it was examined by the Genius Bar, and they provided a written printout detailing the examination and stating the watch was a fake. I am a 20 year Amazon customer.
If you go on Reddit, this has became a common problem, with Amazon continually denying they are shipping fake products. Amazon isn't doing this intentionally. They simply have a very poor system of internal controls. In my instance, I believe a dishonest customer ordered two identical colored bands, removed the genuine band, substituted the fake, and returned it.

Is Amazon putting up a fight/being difficult since they only offer a 14-day return window?

I had that happen with a Lowes purchase. Some parts were missing. Lowe's apologized and gave an immediate refund.
