You're good. They'll do it for 30 days or up to 90 if you feel like buying another and returning it under your older receipt.

Cheapest Ultra 3 watch from a reputable seller on Swappa is $715. I'll stick to buying from Costco.

Apple Watch Ultra 3 stands out as a rugged, cellular Apple Watch with strong ecosystem features, quick wireless charging, and the freedom to call, text, and use data without a nearby phone. Costco's 90 day return window and in store availability add deal appeal, and the included Ocean band can fit small wrists despite sizing concerns on other bands. The main tradeoff is size and weight, which can feel bulky for daily wear or running, and battery life is still a concern for longer fitness use. A solid option if you want the Ultra experience and can live with the bulk.

Common Questions (5)

  • The Ultra 3 can feel heavy and bulky on the wrist, especially for trail running and longer runs. It may move around unless the band is very tight, so it suits shoppers who prioritize the larger case and cellular features over a slimmer feel.

  • The deal can reportedly be improved by price matching Best Buy and stacking an Amex offer for $25 off $250. Military and veterans may also get the exchange price without tax, and some shoppers compare Costco's $699.99 to Swappa or Amazon before buying.

  • Costco's return window for this product is 90 days from receipt. Price adjustments are reportedly available for 30 days, and some shoppers mention a workaround of buying another and returning it under the older receipt within 90 days.

  • Battery life is enough for many daily uses, but longer runs may require tweaks or Low Power Mode. One trail-run example on a Series 8 lasted 25 miles barely, with a suggestion that Low Power Mode can help for runs above roughly 35-40 miles.

  • The Costco Ocean Black Ultra shipment can include the one-size Ocean band, and that band fit a small wrist in one reported purchase. The band size matched a prior Apple Watch Series 4 band size for that buyer.

I hope someone high up at Slickdeals reads this comment. It is a genuine plea and recommendation. Perhaps there is some financial incentive to allow comments like this"Do you think it will be cheaper for BF?" But perhaps there is also some incentive to draft certain FAQs that automatically precede what will inevitably be asked 10k times between now and BF. Perhaps a brief summary of the history of BF and Apple and how on average perhaps over X years the discount is X (minimal). Everyone can enter the chat informed and able to make their own evaluation of the current offer. Of course some folks will inevitably still ask "Do you think it will be cheaper on BF" but what a shame to waste all the valuable data has collected over the years and, honestly, what a joy to have a useful thread to read. One man's opinion. The haters will hate but life is short and some things are constant like death, taxes and Apples tight control over prices. Cheers and to all a good night.

In the specifications they have 3 rows that say Band Size with values: One Size, Large, Medium Large
I was curious about the band size, I suppose it may depend on the watch - but the one I bought (Ocean Black) this past week and received from Costco included the "One size" which I have small wrists, and it fit me just fine. It is the same band size as what I had with my Apple Watch Series 4.

You can trade in at Apple here:

Best Buy also takes trade-ins on some models. If available, it will be shown on product page.
