Sounds like they want to make sure no more Slim Armor cases are going out with the button defect.

How odd. I ordered mine off of amazon on the 3rd and it shipped on the 4th. Received it on the 12th, there's no defect with my case. I hope you get yours soon. Its a well built case! ?

Oh, I got the black one. The poly carbonate middle piece feels (more or less) like the nexus 5 back. Its a fingerprint magnet if you touch something oily and touch the case. Easy wipe off though

I ordered the ultra hybrid from spigen_inc on ebay and I never received my case. After sending numerous e-mails(messages) they never replied, I had to open a case and they finally refunded my money. I purchased the champagne gold slim armor from amazon and receieved it in two days, no defects with the buttons.
Purchased mine from Spigen on eBay on November 5th, just received it yesterday.
I'm slightly frustrated with them because I never received any warning there would be a delay in the shipment. They gave me a tracking number the day I bought it, but it didn't work.
The case doesn't seem to have any issues though, and it is really really nice.
I don't think there is a better case manufacturer out there personally.
Purchased my slim armor on Amazon Thursday, it shipped Friday morning and arrived Saturday. No delay whatsoever and no button defect. So it seems like Amazon has already gotten the fixed slim armor cases from Spigen.

I ordered a few days ago and I got the 1-2 week email then a couple days later they shipped. I almost cancelled too, but forgot. c:
So the Slim Armor button issues have been fixed? Nice.
I was going to get the black version of the Slim Armor case on Amazon but they sold-out.

I'm pretty sure it was an issue with the power button on the case pushing too hard on the power button on the phone causing it to restart and such on its own...

If you look at the reviews on Amazon then you can see that many people had issues with the power button being pressed down by the case. This resulted in random restarts, shut downs, etc. Enough people complained that the case now has a 3 star rating.

Great case, bad experence
I purchased this case on ebay november 4, on november 15 I got this message:
Seller's message to you:
"We are very sorry for the delay with this order. We have switched over to UPS innovations and this seems to have caused some delays with our shipment. We are trying to solve it as quickly as possible. The tracking does seem to be updating now. For the delay we will be issuing a 15% refund back to this order. It will reflect in the next business day or two. If you have any other questions, please let us know. Thank you! "

I ordered a black one before you posted this!
Seller shipped a few hours after I made the purchase, so I had tracking. It came in 3 days from NY to Ohio.
It may say refurbished, but mine looks brand new. It came in the OEM packaging and all.
Its a great buy for anyone that needs one. IMHO, Id rather pay $9 for a quality case that will last over a no-name brand for $4.
Volume buttons are easy to push with the case on, has a nice "clicky" feel. The power button is a little difficult to press as others have reported, but it's not as bad as some say. I got used to it

You're right. Those buttons are something to consider since the built in screen protector covers them.
My case should arrive before this coming Wednesday. I'll let u know what I think about the capacitive buttons soon as I get the case on

Definitely let us know how the stiffness of power and volume button with the Defender case on. Also let us know if the screen cover interfere with Menu/Back buttons.

I used to debate that all the time too. I finally decided that the commuter already adds enough bulk to the phone so I might as well just get the defender. To me the defender also seems to fit the phone better. The commuter series drives me nuts sometimes with that floppy gel skin under the plastic outer shell. I'm a "keep my phone in my pocket" kinda guy and the soft gel skin just gets hung up to much.
To each his/her own though. Just my 2 cents....

When I got my new 2013 Nexus 7 I wanted to make sure I got a case and screen protector asap. So I ordered the i-Blason case because it showed as one of the only cases that was actually in stock. This was on August 3rd. A couple days later it showed as shipped, but it wasnt actually on the way, it was just that the seller had created the shipping label. Its now 10 days later and it hasnt moved at all. I have emailed the seller on Amazon to ask about it, but I think what they did was list it as in stock even before they actually had it. Anyway just wanted to see if anyone else actually ordered and received it? Thanks
I got mine, but it really shipped about 6 days after I got the "shipped" notice. Also the USPS tracking number I got when they said it was shipped was apparently re-used because the post office showed it as having been delivered a year ago (it did finally get corrected once it actually shipped). I've got a Moko case on order now which should be better (I hope). The i-Blason is kind of annoying because the cover won't fold back flat (but it does at least provide protection when carrying it around, so it is better than no case).
I received mine
>^.^< Sent from meow HTC One which is like catnip to me atm
Also received mine. The fold issue is not as annoying to me. I like it so far. Pen part of the Stylus broke already,(cheaply constructed) but other than that, no issues.
I ordered the orange color because it's the only color which has the order fulfilled by Amazon.com. Will receive it today !

I got mine a few days ago.
It took a couple of days before I got the tracking number, which was not a big deal, but then it took 6 days before the post office reported actually receiving it for shipping. I was not happy about that. But I got it and it a nice case.
Hi:
I got mine on the 6th of August. I was happy to get any case so soon. The bending cover is a little irritating but otherwise, a fine case.
Tom
Got mine. The fold issue is a bit annoying but OK for now (at least its something to protect my N7 for now). I ordered the Blurex case too so ill know in a few days how that is.
Finally got a reply from the seller saying "The Nexus 7 II heated black cases were delayed due to a quality control issue. Your order should ship by no later than 8/16. Thank you for your patience."
I received the same email today. Guess ill just hold out. Not worth canceling with the price so low anyway
I had the same experience as well. Ordered on the 3rd (sat), got a shipping notification on the 5th (Mon) but it was just the electronic shipping label. They didn't actually hand it over to USPS until the 9th (Fri). I felt a little duped when I realized what was happening because it clearly said in Stock and ready for shipping.
Then the case shows up and the cover doesn't fold flat. Yeah no more i-blason for me. I'm still hoping the cover will fold flat after some break-in but I may return this one as soon as I get another case anyway.

Let us know if the case you eventually get has a cover that can fold all the way back - that certainly seems to be the big quality issue with mine. Maybe they are adding a bit more slack the the "hinge".

I should be getting mine today, can you add a pic to show what you mean when you say it wont fold all the way down. Then I can compare it. Thanks
Don't have a good way to load a picture at the moment, but if you try to fold the cover all the way around flat against the back of the case, it gets to about 20 degrees and all the slack in the "hinge" is used up, it won't fold all the way against the back of the case, which makes it inconvenient to hold in your had for reading a book.
I just put a medium size rubber band in between the case and nexus 7.
When I fold it all the way back, I put the front cover underneath the rubber band, so that way I can let it hang with just my palm in the hand strap.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Sorry guys, I ended up selling the Nexus 7 before I got the i-Blason case. The case came today but I have no way to test it to see if it was revised in some way to fix the closing issue.
Mine came In today and even after the delayed shipping to supposedly address the quality issues it still can not be folded all the way back. Will take some pics tomorrow
I bought this case
And for the most part it is disappointing. Seems like when I try to prop of the stand it just doesn't fold in place right and the "stand" part of it that should prop it up is uneven and doesn't hold right. I feel like it's going to fall everytime. I should have done more research to find a better case, but you live and learn I guess. Will see if it just needs to be "broken in" to work right, if not I will purchase a better case later.
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 give them a day or two more before I ask about it. Not really in a hurry as I have the Spigen Ultra Hybrid as well as the Am Case bumper delivering today.

I had an order in at that price but I cancelled it, now I regret it, I can't find the cheaper listing now...
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?
Egh I have this for the Nexus 4 and it gets damaged so easily on the back. The material takes permanent scratches like nothing.

I'm a pretty big fan of this case.

Spigen still hasn't shipped mine and it's been a week since my order. My suggestion is to buy from Amazon as a shipper.
Yeah. Got mine from eBay and got it 2 days later. I just ordered another Spigen case from eBay to review. So maybe go the eBay route.

They probably want to keep those eBay ratings high. I sent them an email through Amazon's email system and haven't gotten a response in the last 3 days...
i canceled my spigen order. 3 days and nothing has been processed or charged. i just bought through amazon. horrid customer service.
Just ordered one.

They didn't respond to my email earlier this week either. I agree with his statement of poor customer service. My items were marked ship early last week, yet UPS still hasn't actually/physically received my shipments.

Hm that's very disappointing then. I had a good experience although I did order mines on a amazon prime eligible order so it arrived in two days. Ordered on Saturday afternoon and received it on Monday. Came via usps

Amazon as a seller/shipper has always been good to me. I'm probably going to complain to Amazon about Spigen's shipping issues.
Finally got my Ultra Case. It took a day longer than it should have, even through Amazon Prime. Overall, the case is good. However, the button feedback is okay to poor. The back is very clear and solid. Another small gripe that I have is that there is a big gap over the microUSB that allows dust and lint to crawl through and is visible through the back.
Received mine ordered through Amazon on Friday. Great case.

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED with Spigen.
Ordered the Spigen Grey Ultra Hybrid and Champagne Slim Armor from their Spigen eBay store.
Ordered on Wednesday Nov 6th at 5:16:20 PM EST, paid immediately seconds later by PayPal.
Order finally shipped Saturday Nov 9th at 1:37 PM EST
3 fricking days to actually ship the item?

I ordered mine on Monday and it still hasn't shipped. Well, to be accurate, Spigen marked it as shipped on Amazon days ago, but the status still reads on UPS: Shipment information received by UPS Mail Innovations
UPS still doesn't show that the package is in their possession.
Button feedback sucks and I agree with the above: big gap by the micro USB port open to lint.. Boo

Personal Thoughts
I've been using one for a few days now
Pros -
Sturdy
Comes with screen protector
Transparent back
Rubber feet on corners to keep phone flat on table
Cons:
Very flat on back (not ergonomic)
Hard to find buttons without looking
Poor button response (little to no click feeling)
Clear back is very smudgey.
Dust...dust collects everywhere
I like the case well enough for what it is, but the phone feels so nice naked, it's hard to be happy with anything covering it. I'm considering trying the Diztronic.
