Today I received 2 rubber bands that should be part x88. Bought on Bricklink.

When I received them they look quite some smaller than on the picture of Bricklink.
Part x88 goes easily around 4 studs, it doesn’t look to be stretched at al.

 
Part No: x88  Name: Rubber Band Small (Square Cross Section)
* 
x88 Rubber Band Small (Square Cross Section)
Parts: Rubber Band & Belt

On my own made picture the rubber band only goes on top of 4 studs and doesn’t
‘cover’ them completely., they can hardly be stretched, they will never fit 4
studs at all, I am afraid they will break.

Do forum readers agree with me that it doesn’t look like x88 at all?
And if so, what part can it be, is it Lego related at all?

I think you are right!

The seller will be shipping the correct ones in a few days so it seems to be
okay!

Thanks!
