[BEWARE] 'Genuine' Samsung pouch/case on ebay (seller: cheapgadget) UPDATED 18-9-11

Just received one of these from this seller on eBay. On the face of it, they look like nice little slip cases with the added benefit of being genuine Samsung (according to the auction title).
However, upon opening the case, I decided to return to the seller; these are the reasons I sent to him via eBay messaging:
Major_Sarcasm on 10 Sep said:
Hi,
I'm sorry, but I'd like to return this case for the following reasons:
1. The hole cut out for the speaker is in completely the wrong place for this phone. Even if you put the phone in upside down, it's the wrong side! The hole doesn't correspond to any other piece of equipment on the device.
2. You state that the case is "Genuine Samsung" in the auction title and state the "Brand" as Samsung also. All the Samsung products that I've bought in the past have at least a card backer with the 'genuine' logo on it and a part number.
3. The auction title states that the case is made of Leather. Then in the auction text, it states 'faux leather'. It can't be both. Unfortunately, I didn't notice the 'faux leather' text or I wouldn't have bought the product.
Regards, Steve

So, the return request was approved via the eBay system & I got the following response from the seller, 'cheapgadget' along with the approval:

Nice & polite, I thought. So, I sent him the photos that are attached to this post and the following email:
Major_Sarcasm on Sun 11/09/2011 11:00 via email said:
Hi John
As requested via ebay messaging, please find attached photos of the case, packaging and my Galaxy S2 for comparison. As you can see, the speaker on the S2 is at the bottom and the hole on the case is at the other end. Without mentioning the other things that I detailed in my previous message, I didn’t put the phone in the case because I don’t think it will fit at all well and indeed will likely stretch the case. It’s also not long enough and the phone will stick out the top. I know this because the case that I have currently is damn near the same length and my phone sticks out the top of that (the reason that I was replacing it!)
This case clearly isn’t for a Galaxy S2. The picture of a dog you can see on the back of my phone is a thin sticker and adds no measurable bulk to the device.

Hi *eBay id withheld*,
We’re sorry to hear about the problem. You have received the correct item. We got our stock from local supplier and they said the item is genuine. We have sold many of these and there is no problem so far. May we know is the case fits to your device.
Thanks

I'm like, what? Did you even look at the pics. This case is obviously not for the SGS2. So, I sent an email back this morning:
Major_Sarcasm on Mon 12/09/2011 09:04 via email said:
No, it doesn’t fit the device. The speaker hole is at the wrong end. I will be returning it for refund as you’ve already approved the return on ebay. The photos were a courtesy.

I have now completed the eBay returns procedure and will be posting later today. I will update the thread if I ever get a refund. Also, I'm gonna link to this thread in the negative feedback that I give the seller
I've also just noticed that the cheeky sod has updated the auction text to include a note about the hole. See the pics below. His description of the hole is just laughable.
Edit: My amusing communications with cheap gadget are continued in post 14

Based on the position of the speaker hole, I think it's a case for the Glaxy S. The seller is just being a cheapskate and try to sell them for S2 owner

Hopefully, I'll get my money back.

Big update to OP. LOL.

Funny how "hanging accessories" is more important than hearing your fone ringing, since it's a fone after all. Smart ass
Ps: seems like your fone has the pink spot camera problem. Try downloading the camera firmware updater from samsung apps. Can't help but to notice

Always very cautious buying on eBay it's a haven for fakes/scammers and cheap items passed off as being genuine.

Wife's phone actually. My phone is in the pics. Taking pics of my phone with my phone would've been clever indeed.
Her phone is completely stock and I'm not allowed to touch it ;-)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

Nah you don't need to be clever, you can achieve this simply by bending time.

This is where I've been going wrong. I updated her SGS2's camera firmware last night. All I have to do now is retrospectively apply the pink fix to the photos above. Anyone have a spare chrono-bending appliance handy?

you know what? i have bought the same thing....it is obviously made for sgs1. i gave them negative feedback and i told them i won't send them back the case because i have no time to go to the post office. they fully refunded me and asked me to change the feedback. so i've got the money back and i forced the case with an object to make the phone fit. i think it is one of the best looking cases although it is not a genuine s2 case. could somebody post ebay links to original sgs2 cases looking like this?

They've agreed to refund me. I've returned the case.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

argh, how frustrating. i use a 'sock' for my phone, its nice as I can quickly wipe my screen when putting it in or taking it out...(i hate fingerprints)

Indeed. I never put my phone in the case that I have at the moment unless the screen is clean. My reasoning is that if it has grease on it when it goes in, it'll accumulate in the case lining. Yuck.

If the item is not good for you, you may return the item for refund. Please return the item to:
*Address withheld*
Please include 2 things:
1. Your Ebay ID
2. A note for refund
Alternatively, we can offer you partial refund. To save the hassle of return, you don't have to return the item to us and keep it as spare for your other phone protective usage.

And indeed, I have had a refund and ebay has closed the case. Now I have a dilemma; Do I leave negative feedback and link to this thread for the world to see or give them neutral feedback and do the same or do as they ask and leave positive?
To be honest, I want to leave negative or neutral just because they've pissed me about so much over a case that's clearly not for the phone it's advertised as being for, made me wait nearly a week for a refund and I had to hassle them for it too.
Thoughts, oh wise XDA users?

Neutral.
I voided my warranty and your mum.

+1. I read reviews saying they're slow with shipping, but this seems REALLY slow. I emailed them on the 13th asking the status of my order and got this response yesterday (16th)...not helpful at all
"I apologize for the delay in processing your order. Our warehouse is working quickly to have your item shipped out as soon as possible"

Last time they said something like that, the next message was that the order had been cancelled. That was because they never had the stock they sold in the first place.
Bastards. A lot of people got screwed over on that one.

Just like what att did when they had for that price

My hopes are still up on this one. The fact that it sold out so quickly tells me that they had a fairly-decent cap on the number of purchases. I have ordered from them a number of times before and haven't had any bad experiences with them -- yes, they can be a tad slow sometimes, but they are usually fairly good about getting things processed and shipped. I (perhaps too optimistically) give them until the end of this business week before I start worrying.

It has been a bit under two weeks, not over two weeks. It has only been seven business days since the sale.
I vote we calm down, stop speculating, and count on the company to fulfill their commitments, albeit in a less-than-timely manner.
*knock on wood*

Apologize for the double post, but I have some further information on the matter. I contacted their support the other day and they just for back to me with this:
Caroline replied: Thank you for contacting 1saleaday.
I apologize for the shipping delay. We are currently experiencing some system problems with the tracking information. You can expect delivery shortly.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Htc one X - major issues - International phone...

Well, it was bound to happen eventually.... I have a bad phone it seems. A long story short is the wifi radio is kicking out my carrier signal, I have a yellow burn in on the bottom left hand corner of my screen... and my headphone jack is a HUGE hassle, to get it to acknowledge any headphones... it takes me anywhere from 20 seconds to 3 minutes to get it to work.... I did all the normal stuff, but I am certain most of it is hardware related.
Has anyone dealt with this before? I am sure I am in for a world of inconvenience.... however, I am not sure where I start (handtec, HTC UK, etc).... the phone is less then a month old, ordered April 22. I spoke with HTC in the US and they said I could send it there for repair... but I would be paying the shipping to there, dealing with border delays and awaiting repair.... (which might be better then shipping to the UK).... but I have never dealt with this before, so before I do anything... I thought I would check around and see what my best options are. I live in Canada and I ordered it from handtec UK.
Thanks in advance

My 2nd One X (bought in Australia, Optus handset) has no faults at all (fingers crossed).

Well,bad luck but it is a faulty unit it seems.Why don't you contact the guys where you bought it from and ask for a return?I guess they can replace your phone with a new one and it's much more simpler (and cheaper) than to wait that much to send it to US,get it repaired,pay the shippment..etc.

I did open a support ticket at handtec, but being a weekend.... I expect to wait until monday!
thx

Well i think this are the only solutions you have...even talk to handtec to give you a replacement,or you can talk to HTC,maybe they give you a replacement instead of repairing this one?I mean,i don't know how HTC does it but when i had a Nokia i send it to Finland and in a week they've send me a brand new one.

did handtec respond to you?

so the weird part of it all, my beats headphones work perfectly in other devices, each and every time.... however, if I use my apple headphones in the htc one x, it works each and every time.... makes no sense at all, it is like the design of the headphones and phone do not line up or something?!
Oh well, I also have to ship it to them, wait for them to repair and send it back.... but I still think this will be faster then dealing with the us/border delays. Anytime handtec ships me a phone, I get it in 2 days.

1saleaday Lapdocks (Again) ~$60

For anyone still looking to snag one, http://1saleaday.com/ has the lapdock for sale again. $54.99, plus what I would imagine is their standard $5 shipping.
Edit---------
As mentioned by pre4speed, they decreased the rice by $5. Curious -- I have never seen them do that on their site before.

When will these sales be available outside the US ?

NM...............n00b moment!

Just received mine today. Opened it up to discover it has a UK keyboard... ಠ_ಠ

Ill get mine tomorrow and let you know whether mine is uk as well, hope we didnt get fooled

Yea, sure hope this wasn't a common thing. Emailed support though. I don't recall seeing anything in the description about it being a UK version.
It doesn't affect too much on the layout, but it is a bit annoying. I'll post back if/when I get a response from them.

yup uk keyboard

Good News
Well, I have good news. It would seem that they are accepting returns on the webtops with a UK keyboard. The email seems like it might be just a script/automated message, but it should work.
I received the following email:
XXXXXX replied:
Thank you for contacting 1saleaday,
I am truly sorry to hear that you have encountered a problem with your order.
Please feel free to send the order back for a replacement.
Your order number serves as your RMA number.
To ensure a quick return process, please be sure to fill out the Return Request form (link provided below) and send it back with your package.

For future reference, please be sure to retain your return tracking number as it may be needed to expedite the return process.
I would recommend using a shipping carrier that provides tracking.
Thank you,

sup guys got mine today, using it now. Didn't even notice the keyboard thing till i saw this thread.(smh..it said it on the box) look like its a common thing. other than the "@" and "2" functions being switch around everything is good. i think i'm going to stick out and don't bother trying to get a exchange plus itook the stickers of already (feel like the uk version is probably the only one they have)

Yea, that's what worries me. Also, it's not going to be exactly cheap to send a box of that size that weighs 5 lbs. I think I'm going to reply back to them to make sure I'm not going to waste time & money on getting the same thing.
Sent from my Motorola Atrix 4G using XDA App

just going to keep it. not worth the trouble to ship back

I need a lapdock!! Why do I always arrive late to the party

Same here, UK keyboard, here is some help...
Yes, the 2/@ key but also others such as \ and # keys. Check here for layouts.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:KB_United_States-NoAltGr.svg
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout

Got another email from them. It seems that upon request, they will provide shipping labels. So if you were debating it on the fact that shipping it back will cost you, just send support an email.

thanks but was mostly worried about them not having the us keyboard version(which Im started to believe is the case) and making me send it back for no reason. After 3 days im loving this thing and can wait for ICS update w webtop 3.0

onesaleaday has it on sale again (via Newegg.com). looks like model #9SIA0MC0B56334. can someone that has received one check the model number so that it can be confirmed if US or UK layout. Looks like the "other model 3 is 9SIA0MC0932943. I went ahead and put it on order, but might cancel if someone confirms this is not US model. I think it is not, as the latter model # is out of stock.
while trying to find out which KB this has, I found another link from 1saleaday to http://bensoutlet.com/products/motorola-lapdock-atrix-4g they also list it @ $59.99.
also I sent an email to 1saleaday asking them to confirm which KB for item on sale.
update sent email requesting info on keybrd in stock. It was forwarded to someone else who replied asking what i wanted (request was in email she was forwarded, and in turn responded to me on). Final response was "We can not guarantee that the keyboard will be either US or UK". I will not do biz with these folks after dealing with them and also from reading all the probs other folks had with their service.

Yea, they gave me the same thing when I sent mine back. We can't guarantee that there are US keyboard ones in stock. Got a refund, and I don't think I will be ordering from them any time soon.
Just head to ebay or Amazon. Surely a few more dollars to guarantee a US keyboard is worth it. As for me, I'm going to hold off until webtop 3.0 comes to purchase a new one.
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app

Oh you guys had me scared. I did end up getting a UK keyboard version, but that's just the labels on the keys. Shift + 2 still gets me @ instead of ", for example. So unless you intend to use the lapdock for learning how to type, it won't be a problem.

that's a decent price. normally about $100 with shipping. you might want to check which model they have (UK or US).

slickwraps is it comparable to dbrand ? What style or color so you guys like.

What do you guys think about slickwraps they have a promotion 35% on their website off any item just put (HOLIDAY) when you check out. Totals to $11.02 for a full body wrap! I have the white nexus 5 wondering which one would be the best option. Thanks

Hello,
We addressed your concerns on the original similar post you made. I posted it here in case you didn't see it this morning.
Thanks everyone for posting your concerns.
The delays from Black Friday are due to several factors which I will explain below. I do want to thank EVERYONE for your purchase and know i'm here to help and make sure your package arrives quickly before the holidays.
Slammed
We we're "slammed" for Black Friday and Cyber Monday and being closed for 3 business days for the Holiday has put us 2-3 days behind. We do on regular days ship item's same-day, this is what Slickwraps is known for the best customer service and fast shipping. In fact, we're Google Trust Store Verified with a 99% on-time 1 day shipping stats. Still we want to apologize for the delay, all of our 20 staff members are working 14 hour days manufacturing, packaging and shipping out your orders. As of now all Black Friday orders have been shipped and tracking provided.
USPS, UPS
We we're notified by both USPS and UPS that they are experiencing shipping rates 200% higher than this time last year, thus they are advising us of a 72-96 hour tracking and shipping delay on most packages.
Weather
Currently, in the USA we're experiencing a massive winter storm which is causing major delays for UPS and USPS.
In fact Amazon "Prime" has sent out millions of emails notifying customers that due to weather related issues they're package might not arrive before the holidays.
We again, thank you for your purchases and apologize for any delays. I hope I addressed this precisely and clearly and for any reasons you have any questions I'm you're go to for help!

Mine supposedly shipped on the 2nd but didn't actually update till the 9th which is crazy. Looks like slickwraps made the tracking but it took them a week to actually drop it off for USPS. I have many other packages that are in the USPS system and they have been on time like normal so I wouldn't think this is a USPS problem.

I've got many packages in the ups and USPS system that have been delay free. To be fair I have one package from USPS that's been delayed at least I think it is. I was supposed to get it yesterday and its been stuck in Jacksonville since the 6th. But I don't think that's weather related being Florida lol. My only concern was that it wasn't even accepted till yesterday so I found that very strange since it says you electronic info received on the 2nd. If it was weather related it would usually show that it was accepted but take a long time to leave. Anyways no big deal in the end as long as the package gets to me. I was more just confirming what others have been experiencing. Its nice to see u guys being active on xda and I hope to see more of you.
Edit: The package from Jacksonville has now reached my state

Anyways no big deal in the end as long as the package gets to me. I was more just confirming what others have been experiencing. Its nice to see u guys being active on xda and I hope to see more of you.

I understand completely. I'm personally waiting on several Xmas presents from Amazon "Prime Member" and received emails yesterday I might not get them in time.

Yes! You're 100% correct. Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas and most of the East Coast.
I did just get off the phone with USP and they confirmed 4-5 business day delays from the east-coast and midwest. He said the Texas terminal is 50 trailer trucks behind on getting unloaded.
I will keep you posted!
In the meantime if you need anything you can tech out to me personally at [email protected]

I think I have a Amazon prime addiction. Do you find yourself paying the extra $3.99 to overnight a lot? I do it all of the time..

Weather
Currently, in the USA we're experiencing a massive winter storm which is causing major delays for UPS and USPS.
In fact Amazon "Prime" has sent out millions of emails notifying customers that due to weather related issues they're package might not arrive before the holidays.

I can confirm this. I'm an Amazon Prime member, and did all of my Christmas shopping Saturday morning on Amazon, so that I would not have to go out during the holiday rush BS. I'm in VA, and received an email yesterday that my shipments likely wouldn't be here by Christmas.

yep 3.99 all the time lol. You would think i could wait an extra day for shipping but nope

I prefer dbrand over all skin makers for one simple reason; dbrand makes actual skins instead of stickers.Others just make a thin textured paper and call it a skin.That is not how it goes.But with all honestly i haven't tried slickwraps.I tried Xgear and dbrand and dbrand wins easily.I like metal skins of any color.

dbrand is great and always my first choice but their 3m material is so rigid that it can't cover certain devices. Like with my G2 I couldn't go with dbrand cause of the shape of the phone. Also some people want the skin to go all the way around the corners which can be done with a certain type of thickness material. Which then when a heat source like a hair dryer is applied it comes out smooth. I uses a skinomi on my G2 and couldn't be happier.
