[LNIB] Ballistic SG Case $25 OBO

I will do $25 shipped, otherwise I'm listening to all offers.
I will do trades for iPhone 4S cases.
I know this should go in marketplace, but I'll never sell it there. Mods if you deem it necessary just close the thread please. Thanks

You might want to try selling it locally. Maybe use Craigslist. People here are not gonna pay that much for it and selling it for cheap isn't going to leave you much profit after you make the trip to the post office and ship it. I sold mine for $5 last month. The guy came and got it from me. It didn't cost me anything and I wanted it gonne because I hatted it.

OEM Authentic Galaxy S3 Battery Covers.

I just wanted to share this. I was pretty excited. Bought one. Don't have to worry about buying the "OEM" ones that are not authentic. U.S. Seller and all. Claims it's genuine. He has them in blue and white.

Q: why doesn't the battery actually say SAMSUNG? the OEM batteries say samsung on them. Aug-31-12
A: Hello, This battery is produced in the same factory than the original one. It is exactly the same samsung part,but due to copyright and license complications,factories do not stamp the samsung logo on them so they can sell them to other companies as well. In any case,I personally own an s3 and use a battery from this batch daily.It works just like the regular one. Hopefully this make things clearer.Thank you,

Really? They are the same sellers on eBay and they come from China as well. Just because it's fulfilled by Amazon doesn't make it genuine.

CNN.COM
That's the most trusted replacement supplier in the world. Also, swbox ain't bad either. All Chinese suppliers aren't bad. These two are quite reputable. Check them out.

Wonder where this guy got so many covers. Mine is getting a bit scratched up on the corners after using my S3 bare for a few months, good to know I can get OEM covers on eBay.
I have the urge to get a white one and use it on my pebble blue, just to mix things up a bit.

Ordered one not to long ago and letters came off the back, just a warning. Don't remember if it was the same seller but the covers the same.

See my response to the quote above this one as it fully applies here also, lol. The things they list as "oem" are 100% genuine Samsung parts. I've ordered iPhone parts for three different models, Samsung parts for six different models, and also Motorola and HTC parts and all have been genuine

Nice, I chopped up my first one for a custom dash mount in my truck. A backup will be nice for traveling though. Ended up as $5.41 at checkout, didnt bother to see if that was tax or shipping.

Lifeproof Case on eBay?

I've seen a bunch of threads regarding that the Lifeproof cases aren't out yet... But on eBay there are a few cases for sale. I'm guessing these are fake but the pictures look pretty legit. Any experience with these? I'm still new so I can't post links but if you type in "S3 Lifeproof" on eBay it should pop up.

Their fake.

Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

I was about to start a thread and remembered there already was one. So since this thread I've noticed a large increase in the number of fake lifeproof's, I'm assuming some company in china got the specs and started making replicas. Looks like the prices are in the $40 to $50 range, so who's going to be the guinea pig and buy one? Part of me wants to try it since the real lifeproof cases cost $80, but another part of me thinks that its stupid to spend $50 on something that could be complete crap. Especially if it ships from china or hong kong, if I don't like it I'd have to pay the shipping all the way back. Plus I'd have to wait 3 weeks just to get it and possibly another 3 weeks to get the refund........
Anybody want to sponsor me? I'll put a big pictorial and detailed review?:laugh:

LifeProof
I'll be ordering one from a US Seller for a slightly higher markup. I can post a video review on Youtube, and here as well. I'll get it some time next week, as I'll probably order it with my birthday money or when my paycheck comes in. And hey, if you want to push $5 towards the cause, I wouldn't be opposed They look exactly like the iPhone version, even down to the packaging and colors available. one seller even mentioned that they aren't LifeProof branded, but had a 1 month return/refund/warrenty. In addition, Paypal and my bank offer a certain amount of time to make sure a product actually works (3 or 6 months, I think). I'm game for giving it a shot!
I imagine that the install would be the same as for an iPhone... and I'd want to check the seals BEFORE installing my phone... that'd be really sad.

Found it but it's not on lifeproof website.

Right, that's the whole point of this entire thread. These are FAKE or replicas or whatever you want to call them, that's why this thread got started. That's why they only cost $40 to $50 dollars. That's why some of them are from CHINA. I think I'll probably end up buying one of these once I find a white one that's being sold here in the US. I know they all are probably being made in the same place in Hong Kong or somewhere but I don't see any reason to order something and wait for a month for it to get here.

Being that lifeproof has yet to release the case, what's the alternative? If you need protection a fake case is better than nothing.

I didn't even know this one existed. I'll have to look into it. I take it you're happy with the case? Is touch sensitivity okay? I had the OBEX for a week and hated it. I like to five and would like to have something I can take on the boat with me that I don't have to worry about getting banned around or splashed. I have no intentions of actually taking it into the water.

Nah, not really. I ordered from Amazon on Friday for $99, found it in my local Best Buy for the same price, and picked it up locally for around $104. But hey, it's a good case. Unless you need a kickstand, it's probably a better deal than the iBLASON case-- especially after the price drop.

The I-Blason case is a better deal.

Theres a whole other thread here about it. Theres also a few professional reviews I think, www.google.com

I ordered one today, but sadly the discounted one through MobileCityOnline was out of stock so I paid the regular price from Amazon.com, although I didn't get hit with sales tax and will have it tomorrow via Amazon Prime so its a trade off.

Got it. They'll only price match against competitors at time of purchase, but I pointed out that if that were the case then I'd just return it and repurchase, and the rep gave me the discount.
