I have just listed my MDAIII for sale with Piel Frama case and other goodies. I will be really sad to see it go but I would love it go to one of you guys or gals so here is the link if you are interested. Feel free to ask any questions.

Come on guys and gals - it is looking really lonely! I am giving it away - at the moment the kit that omes with it is worth more that the bid price
You might have a hard time selling this because you have it set for shipping to the UK only.
Well after seeing the other member post up 23 bucks shipped for the cyclops, I was out to see if I could find it cheaper and well I did
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180599646704
Do the best offer and it will accept automatically 20.00 as the best offer. Now someone may want to see if they can get it lower or not. Post up if you do.
Just thought there should be a thread dedicated to this sick case being that it seems the only one to me with the most promise (quality look to compliment the thin design + good history). I'll keep this updated up to the availability of the Brushed Aluminum Barely There case. google searching brought me to Tessco.com which has it for $40.00 but no pictures to confirm its existence. anyone gonna take a dive for it?
i would post a link but i'm on a new account under moderator url restrictions. i google'd "barely there epic touch 4g"
UPDATE: uplifted my restrictions (thanks mod)
and the preorder $20, expected availability 10/31 (silver) ***CAUTION: THERE HAVE BEEN NEGATIVE FEEDBACK FROM PPL WHO PREORDERED THEIR CASE FROM theaccessoryking.com***
http://www.theaccessoryking.com/cas...ch-4g-case-mate-barely-there-case-silver.html
another preorder emerged for $20, expected availability 10/31 (black)
http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=28553
I throw my support in with kain144000 for the Case-Mate Barely There Aluminum case w/ KICKSTAND (!!!!) and suggest that you all do as well since its basically the same case, except the kickstand, of course.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283583
Edit 2: MOBILECITYONLINE IS NO LONGER ACCEPTING PREORDERS because it is already on the market, obviously
appreciate it as this is the case i more than likely will get
np. feel free to hit the "thanks" button
theaccessoryking.com has it for preorder $20.00, pretty sketchy but it gives us an expected release date: 9/29
Out of all the cases I've had for my Inspire, the Case Mate Tough was by far the best. Can't wait for their e4gt cases.
The TPU will tide me over for now, it's actually a pretty good case but I feel safer with a hard shell. Probably going to return my Samsung kickstand one to Sprint.. it's not a very good design.
Transmission sent from a Galaxy S II.
Is there anywhere we can give an 'un-thank' up in here?
FWIW (its probably a standard email)
I received this email after inquiring about the case. I didn't particularly like the "or if" part.

I emailed support to ask with a link to the item listed. Like I said in another thread, it looks like the kind of site that sells to 3rd party vendors, and since the packaging says Sprint branded, I suspect this is meant for non-corporate Sprint stores.
Obviously no real confirmation, but I will post any kind of non-generic answer I get.

dang. that is very contradictory to the details we have found. maybe CS is just holding out on us? some companys like to keep their info to themselves until the item is officially released

i figured the same, but if thats the case (haha). maybe we can pool a couple orders together and save a buck or two? that is, if they do bulk orders
UPDATE: i registrared and their expected availability is 10/04, most likely that will be when case-mate decides to put it up on their site and it starts showing up everywhere. that $20 pre order is starting to look pretty tasty
How much wait and thickness will this case add?
Love the idea of the case. But the lightness of this phone is one of its biggest pluses.
Really, really like the idea of this case though.

it'll add about 1.5 oz (not sure how noticeable that may be, but it should bump it up to the weight of the MoPho) its stream-lined fitted, snaps on snug and is pretty durable for its thinness. i wanna say its thinner than the tpu case, not sure tho. but i know for a fact its one of the thinnest cases you can get hence the name "barely there"
Some people claim this case interferes with GPS reception. =/

Are you saying theaccessoryking.com is a sketchy seller? Or that you aren't a fan of preorder in general? Or sketchy putting money down sight unseen?
I am fine getting a little extra discount in exchange for patience...
...I'm not fine sending a sketchy seller my money.
Is theaccessoryking a reputable seller?
just got a response from Case Mate indicating that the vendor from the link is legit and that the product is real (ie model number, device, etc.) they did not indicate anything on the date however...
Just preordered my casemate tough from theaccessoryking.com for $21. I love the barely there cases but certainly not in silver, which is the only option available on that site.

What i found sketchy was that it didn't exist anywhere else, not even Case-Mate verified it. I'm fine with preorder (i preordered my ET4g) its just that i did a preorder on a case once before (not from accessoryking) and it never came into stock. But i hope this doesnt scare anyone bc they didnt take my money or anything they just messed with me and gave me false hope >.>
especially after diaa08 confirmed that its live (at least i believe s/he was referring to this link) i would jump on it, its quite the deal

the complaints i see are for the HTC Inspire/Desire and it wasnt just for the barely there, they had it for ALL cases but if there is a problem, from the threads i read you can complain to Case-Mate and they'll send you complimentary cases you could try or just sell and buy another case

I'm trying to get a group discount for tudia cases for the One.
There is a site called Massdrop which contacts the Manufacturer (Tudia) to get a discount for a group.
All you need to do is vote here: https://www.massdrop.com/vote/smartphone-case
After we get 200 votes we will get a discounted price from tudia.
Voting does NOT commit you to buy anything.
*massdrop usually ships internationally very cheaply which makes the deal even better.
Have a nice weekend and thanks for the support.:good:

Voted! Said 152/200.....now I just need an invite for the 1+1 :crying:
I voted for the metal/slate option, which is one of the two versions of the Cygen case that Amazon never offers with Prime.
Notice that the metal/slate case is the most requested version of the Cygen on Massdrop. Requests for that model outnumber others by almost two thirds.
The black/black case is the other version of the Cygen that has to be ordered directly.
i2k13: Have you thought about promoting that Massdrop page on other forums?
Possible places to promote it: The OnePlus Accessories Forum and Android Central's OnePlus One Forum (with *Accessories* as the tag).
I've posted on oneplus forum, if you have any other forums you know you are free to copy-paste this thread
We are @ 187/200 ATM
DONE!!!
Only Oneplus to go for 200 !!

WTH, I went there to vote (I did) but I found out the target had already been reached. Cool!
Any update on this now that we are at 200??

Hey I won a case on TWitter but the official Twitter account for Armadillotek stopped replying to me and so I don't know how to receive it.
Should've probably mentioned that this is for US residents only. I would gladly share my feedback and such in all honesty. Still, it's nice of them to do this though. I hope this event would help them greatly.

We are sorry for the inconvenience!
The program is for U.S. only, and we only have cases for s10 and s10 plus, not 10 e
I have filled the form out, and ordered on in black.
I would do it but those cases are massive...I know, different strokes
I was good with everything until the social media stuff. They're buying followers. No respect for that.
I sent my request, it didn't ask for shipping address though.

They don't directly ship it to you they send you the money for the case via PayPal and have you order it from Amazon. I got picked last week and got mine over the weekend. So far I'm very pleased. It's not overly bulky and it allows for samsung pay.

Nope. Just saw it on here and went to the website to try to get it. I can say they're decent cases though had mine since the weekend.

Its only for u.s
Got mine yesterday and so far I'm impressed. Good protection for the edges which always is a concern of mine. Edge widgets will require a bit of adjustment to work.
Only complaint is if you are going after the Defender or Unicorn Beetle Pro is you need a belt clip.
just got mine really happy with it have already dropped my phone and case protected it perfectly can notice i dropped it! the kickstand comes in very handy also!!
Got approved for my case today, they paid me the 18.99 via paypal before i bought the case. i paid the extra $2 because i wanted a color one.
Said to just leave review on Amazon, and XDA.
So case will be here tomorrow. I will use it through the weekend and have a review ready on Monday.
Eff these people. They want me to buy the case FIRST off of Amazon. Not what the thread says. Here is their email to me.
If you agree to make a review at XDA with photos and link to my amazon page,
then you are in!
A lots of people said yet, but does not want to fulfill the words
make sure you can do it, before we start it
Also, so many people just took my money, without buying it. the ignored my email
So here is why I am going to do, you need to go to amazon purchase it first, send me the order-id, then i will send the money via paypal within 24 business hours.
Don't worry, your money is 100% safe, as If we dont give you the fund, you can return it back to Amazon, and give us 1 star review.
No seller will take money over reviews.

I just got the same email, and bought the case...not that big of a deal especially when you'll get a refund for it later. Plus I used the 40% off code and only paid $13 for the blue case. Not that big a deal for a "free" case, IMO.
They sent me the PayPal funds. I'm receiving it tomorrow, I hope it's good cause I'm going to be honest as sh** after i use it for a week.

He contacted me and sent me the money through paypal. I guess i can understand where he's coming from. A lot of people got the money and didn't order the case. I got the case today. I'll try it out and leave reviews after i've had a chance to make up my mind. I do think he's going a little overboard asking for multiple reviews and posts with pictures AND videos on Amazon, Facebook, Instagram etc. That;s a lot of work for a case you weren't really looking at to start with. I'll leave reviews and a pic or two but i doubt i'll leave videos unless it blows my mind..
