Hey guys,
Just thought id share, Ive been looking to a Otterbox case for my evo, and had a hard time finding one localy. The Rep at the Sprint store said my best bet was to order it directly from otterbox, and shared a discount code with me. It saved me $10+ because of discount and shipping. Just figured if anyone was going to purchase they might as well save a little bit of cash.
Code is ( tb1010y ) Free shipping and 10% discount
thanks for the heads up
wish i had seen this sooner, ordered mine the other day without any promo code
I'm waiting for the defender for the screen protector and the clip.
Thanks, I just used this coupon code to bought mine!
thanks alot dude, just ordered mine
20% off coupon!
Just sharing currently working 20% off coupon codes "amcc1010b" when you buy at Otterbox

Just applied it and it was only 5 bucks (10 %)
Go here for all discounts in future
Website has all the latest coupons:

You can apply multiple coupons to one order. I just got 30% off and free shipping on an order.
P.S., The kickstand on the Defender is crap. Had mine 3 days before it broke in pieces.
NOT SUCH A HOT DEAL. When you consider all the complaints on the kickstand breaking and the flimsy soft plastic that often tears at the port covers. BUYER BEWARE!!!

When do you think 3rd parties like Amazon, Best Buy and Sprint will carry the Defender for EVO?

OtterBox Amazon and other online retailers should have them within a week or so. Best Buy will be carrying online initially at BestBuy.com.

YMMV - Available on Otterbox website, Amazon has not changed their page, but the price has changed to $33.94 This item is full price on Otterbox at $49.95 with a $5 coupon code for those of you that had signed up for notification on availability.
YMMV - Pre-Order the Otterbox Defender for $26.99 shipped.
It has been "Coming Soon" for months now, so Pre-Order at your own risk.
Free shipping with FSSS or Prime.
This price is current as of 10:30 PM EST 11/7/2010. Amazon prices change rapidly.

NOTE: IT LISTS SHIPPING TIME AS 1-2 MONTHS!!! But it may take longer or shorter. Rumors say it will ship this month.
NOTE: Under Product Description it lists the name as Impact: "Product Description
The OtterBox Impact Series is a durable silicone skin...]"
...however, on the invoice it only lists DEFENDER and makes no mention on Impact Series. Due to this discrepancy, I am adding YMMV to this deal. However, this does not really concern me as the title says Defender and the Impact has no current wait, therefore, there is more than enough reason to believe it is the Defender. I have never had issues with Amazon with similar description issues in the past.
From the Otterbox Facebook page, Otterbox reminds us that all coupon codes are case sensitive.
Jay E Hey guys, I just got my Evo defender for 40$ with free shipping! Use these 2 codes tb1010y (10% off/free shipping) & MEMUEVO5 (5$ off) (coupon is case sensitive) . They both stack. Enjoy 15$ off!

That is not entirely true. you get 10% off which EQUALS free shipping. NOT 10% PLUS free shipping. the total savings is $10. still a great deal though

If you order through Otterbox, you may have to call in, their servers have been crashing.
If you need a case soon or now you may be better off going with the Trident Cyclops or Seidio Rugged. However, I do not suggest the Seidio Rugged as I have 2 and they're both falling apart. The upgraded/seperate screen protector is necessary on the Cyclops. The Ballistic cases may be released this month as well.
Defender on sale at Amazon confirmed as of 11/7/10 11 pm
Confirming OP. Defender on sale through Amazon direct. Must be coming out soon!
http://www.amazon.com/Otterbox-Defender-Shield-HTC-Black/dp/B0043GWDZ2/ref=cm_cr_pr_sims_t
Edit: then again..maybe not..says ships in 1 to 2 months. Does anyone know if Amazon charges when you order or when your item ships? I know for unreleased video games, your card is charged when the item ships but I don't know about non game items.
I see $49.95
nevermind. Previous link was to a different seller at $49.95. Amazon is selling for $29.95
Note that it says Usually Ships in 1 or 2 MONTHS

Thanks for posting the link! I can't believe I forgot that.
For everyone who doesn't frequent Amazon...on the right side there is an area that says "More Buying Choices", this box may have Amazon.com as a seller or it may be the default seller, I'm not sure how they program their code to decide which you see as default.
1-2 months is possible. Rumors say this month, but rumors have been saying that for months!!!
I'm in for 2 because my Seidio Rugged's are falling apart, but they'll hold up until the Otterbox Defender is released.......................................................................unless the Trident Kraken beats them to the market

That's weird. From my point of view, the link I gave does go to the 26.99 version. I'll just chalk it up to some crazy property about Amazon's site. As long as you found it. Actually..I believe Amazon moved it to a different page just that quick.
Here's a screenie of what I initially saw before Amazon changed it:
Just ordered mine, $26.99. Thanks for the heads up OP
Just ordered one also! Crossing my fingers that it comes out in a reasonable time. On facebook otterbox did say that it is in the manufacturing process a few days ago.
Ordered mine as well OP. $26.99 with free super saver shipping. awesome! great find.
From a discussion page on Facebook:
Random Person: NOV 17 DEFENDER CASE FOR EVO SHIPS!!!!!!!!
OtterBox: Fingers crossed, cause it isn't too much longer now. The date didn't come from us, but we are working hard to get them out asap!
Awesome!!
I already have a Commuter case, good for interim was waiting on this one!!
Just scored it for 28.61 with tax, shipped!
Even if it takes a few weeks more than Otterbox I can deal with wait for the price.
Thanks OP!

No problem, I am using the crappy Seidio Rugged, can't wait for the Defender, hopefully the build quality is good. Sorry you live somewhere you have to pay Amazon tax, I buy way too much from Amazon...

You and me both. Both Amazon and EBay make it way too easy to buy something. Just click this button and it's mine? Don't mind if I do...

I wasn't happy with my Seidio Rugged holster, but I don't use the holster much anyhow...but I would like a good one, it would be nice to carry at work.

the only thing i didnt like about the rugged was the opening for the usb port. i did cut it and it works well.. of course it doesnt look like it came that way since i did cut it and its not smooth but it works well..
i have the rugged away but im using the active now... out of all thats out there now with a holster, i think sedio is the best ( IMO)
like i said, i would like to see the otter box before i get it. i just wish it had a clip on the top like the sedio holster has. just feels more secure

I accidentally ripped off that usb port, my wife also accidentally ripped the headset jack area off. That plastic on the Seidio Rugged is just way too thin.
I snapped the top of my holster off, the design didn't work for me...but take that with a grain of salt, cause if it's breakable, I'll break it.

I still haven t been charged yet and I think it's been 48 hours, so I'm guessing they don't charge until it ships. I went ahead and got the 30 day Prime trial so I'm getting mine overnighted for $30 shipped, not too bad!
Ordered off Amazon. For the price you can't beat it. Hopefully it comes sooner than later.
$33.94 now. Listed as in stock on Otterbox.com.
sent from my Warmed Up HTC Evo
Bought a two piece incipio case about two weeks ago, in great condition, nothing wrong with it, but of coarse my parents didn't know and bought me the otterbox commuter case, which is basically the exact same thing, so I'm willing to let this go cheap, it's a great case, esp for about $13. PM for pictures. paypal only.
I would return it but of coarse Verizons great 14 day return policy bit me in the arse again.
Thanks guys.
I finally found a site, they are selling it for $30..

got a buyer, mod please close
Hey guys! After having a close shave with my phone yesterday, I decided that it is time for some ballistic grade protection–the otterbox defender. So, I'm in India and have three options :
1) buy it from ebay.in for a sh*t expensive price
2) buy through an international reseller for a half decent price
3) my dad's in London this week. Could I know from some of you who do know if the case is available there....
Thanks!
Thank me if I helped.... You know I'll do it again Oh, and by the way, Sent from my HTC One X
my advice is to order it through amazon (whether .com or .co.uk) and you can have it delivered to your dad to save on shipping although if you order from .co.uk you will be paying VAT

Memorial Day. I noticed the sale yesterday. 25% off site-wide with the code mem2014 code at checkout.
For a few case+color combination it works out cheapest. I got the Armor to complement the ultra slim for when I'm more knock-about traveling.
If I didn't already have 8 cases for my N5, I'd consider another one. But the red Slim Armor case does look good.

Red, white, gray is $25 pre-discount, I bought black $15 pre-discount, after discount add tax, free postage, is $12.14 my out-of-pocket . I own a red N5 so there's a dash of red visible
I've kept my N4 in a dual-layer rubber inner, more stiff outer for 18 months and taking it out I see the only damage is the scratches around fumbling in the usb power. I later got a wireless base charger,so my new N5 should look even better used when I sell it.
Not to rain on anyone's parade, but aren't spigen cases normally around 20% lower on Amazon?

No actually. e.g. nexus 5 spigen armor cheapest on Amazon is $17+tax + postage (which you can avoid with Prime or bundling with other items) but I got that case Spigen for total $12 delivered, so ...cough, if someone wanted such a case they can it cheaper today than Amazon do every day.
You're right normally and why I posted this today as its true valid and useful for others today.

You're right I just checked. Normally though the slim armor was 25 on spigen's site and 18 on amazon so with the 25% off it would be the same price approx. However, I didn't notice spigen lowered their price to 15.
