You can only buy one item per day so it is good to visit daily. Talk to the merchant to check yesterday's, tomorrow's, and today's Bargain of the Day.

How to Use Binding Band

Have a Trapping Pokemon Hold it

The Binding Band is used to increase the power of Trapping Moves. This is especially useful for Pokemon like Drednaw that has access to Jaw Lock, for example.

Both this item and the Trapping Moves are quite niched, however.
