So there are a few threads here about different cases "in stock", but nothing is actually "in stock" and ready to be shipped.
If you find a case SPECIFIC to the 2nd gen Nexus 7 that we can buy now and have it ship within a day please post it below. Prime eligible would be best!
Please refrain from generic 7" travel or sleeve type cases as I'm sure anyone looking for one of these can go anywhere and buy one now.
****I'll try and update the OP as you guys post them this way they are easy to find****

I'm with you. I'm surprised there aren't the usual $5 TPU cases on eBay even that I always find when a new device comes out. I always tend to use something like that for the 1st few weeks/months until better options come out. But I cannot find anything worth buying that available locally or online and actually in stock and shipping now.
The ONLY option I've found is the official Asus travel case which everyone seems to say isn't worth the money at all. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1389517282&pf_rd_i=507846

I ordered the official Asus travel case and its on a UPS truck to me right now. I am only planning on using it until better cases are available, since it apparently is not very good.

My girlfriend is going to France for three weeks on the 4th and is going to take the Nexus with here, there's no way I'm letting her take it without a case and screen protector. So, I ordered the SUPCASE Folio case yesterday, I didn't notice that it says "Usually ships within 4 to 5 days." Expected ship date isn't until Monday, the day after she leaves and I can't easily cancel the order, so I sent them an email saying that unless they can ship it ASAP, I want the order canceled. I already have a Poetic case ($3.95, free shipping) ordered that's not shipping until the 9th, I wouldn't have ordered a second case unless I needed it sooner, so I put in an order for the i-Blason case. None of the cases are Prime eligible, so hopefully I can get that shipped before Saturday... and hopefully I don't end up with three cases.
I think it's going to be hard to find any good cases shipping now. I'm guessing these third party manufacturers did not get any early access to the device, so they're designing and mass manufacturing the cases as we speak. If anything I'd be weary of buying any case that actually is shipping now as it's probably a rush job and won't fit the device perfect. Just my 2 cents.

None of them ship till 8/21. Were there some other cases for the new Nexus 7 that you found on there that I'm missing? This thread is for cases that are shipping right now.
Anyone found a case that doesn't destroy the n7? I keep reading nightmare reviews ...

No worries.
If anyone else is interested, I just ordered this for under $6 shipped with Amazon Prime to hold me over for awhile until other options surface.

Not perfect but I mostly want something to protect my Nexus 7 while in transport in my laptop bag to and from work.
Try FiveBelow, Big Lots, & Dollartree
If anyone wants a little protection before their real cases get shipped... try FiveBelow, Big Lots, & Dollartree.
I first got me a 7" tablet sleeve from Dollartree but went into 5Below yesterdya and I got a generic 7" folio that fits the new nexus pretty good for $5.
I also saw some cheap tablet sleeves/cases at BigLots.
It will do the trick until my Moko and TPU hardshell case get here.

I still have yet to figure out why people need an otterbox. Unless your going to be in an episode of deadliest catch. Sigh 70 bucks wasted.
I don't even use a case on my xoom. Nor my nexus. Pointless if you ask me.
I want one of these just because I've seen what happens to an iPad when dropped only a few feet.
I'm a bit clumsy. Lucky for me, the OG Droid is a tank.

case looks awesome.. Love to have a built in kickstand. Should of came factory like the thunderbolt.
I pre-ordered the Otterbox case from CellularAccessory.com for $58 and used the code take5 to get free standard US Mail shipping (a week or two ago). It was the best deal I could find for the Xoom Otterbox. I wish it had the polycarbonate screen cover since I'll be using it in sandy conditions but it still looks like the best protection out right now.
The status of my order says it will ship tomorrow. Will see.

Has anyone seen any stores in Canada anywhere that sells cases for the a100?
bought Acer brand folio, newer carbon fiber looking version at Bureau En Gros in Quebec, aka Staples rest of provinces. Yet to find the bumper locally, might have to order that online.
I did post photos in a Custom Case (blurex) thread in this section.
I sucked it up and ordered the bumper case. Expensive but fits well and looks good.
I hate leather folio cases, the bumper-type cases are so much better for holding one handed or playing games in landscape. The choices seem to be a cheapo $7 silicone case from Amazon which doesn't fit very well and the overpriced bumper from Acer. I had both, I'll go with the bumper...
It got here in 2 days.

I did the same thing, only i got the carbon fiber portfolio type one. Its pretty nice the only thing i noticed is that the cover wouldnt stay closed very well, i think its just a matter of it getting broke in some.
Can anyone post a link to where they got the ACER BRANDED bumper or leather case? I'm located in Canada so resources are hard to find.

How did you make a purchase? Every time I attempt to checkout it tells me the "ZIP Code" is incorrect. I live in Canada so I'm inserting a postal code.
Please tell me how you did this?

Unfortunately they don't. The UAG cases are very form fitted to the stock phone.
That site seems a bit too hip for me to buy from...
Same problem as ever, won't ship to Europe. Main company does, but I end up paying 2x more with shippings and customs and may take up to several months to get here...
I noticed the not eligible for return comment and hesitated...
I want an Aviator, but I may wait for the price on Amazon to drop some.
its still cheaper on amazon ($25 shipped) fab is $27
Iam so f**cking mad at UAG, i order the AERO color like two months at full retail price and still haven't gotten the case. They said. they ship then out last week. Lets see if it come by Friday if not ill try to get my money back and order from Fab,com
Was looking for a case for my new N7.2 and found this. It's usually a $50 case, on sale for $2.99.
http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-Google-New-Nexus-Case/dp/B00DE8R3BO/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
Came out to around $7.50 with regular shipping. For the price, I doubt there's any competition.
Good price, but I don't believe anyone has EVER paid $50 for a MoKo case.
Thank you for sharing!
Hopefully the quality will be even better with this new version of the MoKo case.
Now.. to wait for the Nexus 7.2 to actually arrive in Norway, which is most likely not until October.

Same here. I just ordered a wireless charging pad/adapter and want wireless charging over a case. I have a Moko case on my 2012 Nexus 7 and its great. Very well made.
It's .99 cents now 10.97$ shipped to Canada
I ordered one when it was $2.99, then just saw it's dropped to $0.99, contacted the seller to see if I can get a price adjustment, fingers crossed.
I have to say that these cases make it hard to pull down the notification pane. Otherwise good deal.
I just saw it for 99 cents and $4.98 shipping. It won't ship until August 7. It appears to be a great price for a case with a built in stand. I'll have my Nexus 7 (2013) tomorrow.

Darn, I'm getting me three :x
Wireless charging is capable of working with a phone/tablet that is 5mm off of the pad. That is the requirements for the qi standard. I would say most likely that with a case on it will still work. It does on my GS4 with an Otterbox Commuter case on it. Just a heads up.

Yeah I'm much more of a fan of the corner clip style. I can imagine it being a little annoying moving icons from one screen to another by edge dragging.
i know that slim/sleek/svelte is all the rage these days, but if you're like me, you're paranoid about drops. i've used this case on my n4 since day one and couldn't be happier with it. i'm definitely picking up an n5 version of it when i get around to ordering my n5. (which should be tomorrow, woo!)
just wanted to throw this case out there as option for those who want more serious protection than the slim and hybrid stuff currently out there. if this case is anything like it's n4 counterpart, it's not going to add a ton of bulk to the phone. i think the protection/bulk trade-off is right in a sweet spot with this case.
here's a link:
http://www.amazon.com/Acase-Google-Nexus-Superleggera-Protection/dp/B00GAF30N8
i'll be sure to return to this thread with pics when i have the phone and case in hand.
This seems similar to the dual layer Incipio cases for some phones. If it is then I agree this is a great balance for cases offering heavy duty protection.

I'll go and contact them tonight and see what is with them dissaperaing on amazon.
I also noticed CTC store had pretty much disappeared.
I cancelled my order with them around 4pm est and bought it from another vendor.
At 5:30pm est they sent me a message telling me that they're sorry, they shipped my package today, and to write "REFUSED" on it and send it back.
At 6:15pm est they sent me a notification saying it had shipped.
I'm going to play along and give them the benefit of the doubt, but the way they're going about things seems very peculiar.
Where can I buy this case shipped to or in Canada?
