As you can see, it looks and works nice! I can't even tell you how nice it is to have the rubber feel when holding the Fuze with this cover on. You can order just the cover from expansys here: http://www.expansys-usa.com/p.aspx?i=166210
The picture shows a generic cover. Its not the one you get. You will get the same cover that comes with the EURO touch pro.
Nice. May order one.
$35+ for the cover!!! Very steep. Would love too but the price is a little too high for aesthetics. Maybe if i where to damage the fuze cover. 30 plus shipping is highway robbery.
Given that some of the phone protections skins like Invisible Shield are priced in the mid twenties, a spare back at $33 is not bad. Shipping was listed as $2.50 for me. I suppose this is the price for being an early adopter not wanting to tread the uncertain waters of ebay.
but the cover still isnt exactly flat, yes?
that's one annoyance for me. i have the phone on the table and i'm tapping away with the stylus on the keyboard and the right side of the phone doesnt have full support so it rocks

That's correct but it is abit better as its not as hard as the original fuze cover. So when you push on the screen , its not clacking all over the place.
does this mean that the extended battery with cover should fit as well?

The link you point us to does not look like the back cover of the Fuze, nor does if have a hole for the flash. Is it just the wrong picture the website put up? I wouldnt mind having one, but Im not willing to buy the wrong part
Ya at that price i would just buy the stock back cover from ebay if need be. Still a great find, but maybe in the $20 shipped range at most.

I know. I was worried about this too. But if you notice, it says the pic is not the item. That was the item I orderd and what I receivied was the same battery cover on the original touch pro. Everything fits perfect on the fuze.

Did you get your email order confirmation yet? I just did. They removed the wmpoweruser discount from my order AFTER it showed online in the final price and I ordered it and the back seems to be out of stock now. Typical Expansys..heh..Oh wait it says "instock" on thier webpage. Bunch of liars.
Here is my confirmation email showing no discount on the total after it showed while ordering it earlier
just an update guys, i got my promotion code this morning and placed an order. You dont have to buy anything else btw. My total came to 17.80 including shipping to US. thanks a lot for the info guys!
I already ordered a full body Invisible Shield for my Fuze but would like to purchase this cover as well. Can the Invisible Shield stick to the rubber back or should I just use the front half of it?
so this will absolutely fit the back of our fuze's without a problem at all??? if so wow thats awesome cause i feel like thats what att shouldve done from the beginning!!! not saying that the one that comes with the phones isnt nice im just saying that matted version is nicer plus im used to that from having a tytn 2!! just email them for the voucher so hopefully i get it soon so i can order it!!
how noticible is the color difference?
yes i know there are pictures but sometimes flash can alter thingss
~oh and mod i think this should be moved to accessories part of forum
Color difference is not bad at all. The only part that is shinny blk that stands out is the bottom near the stylus. It really blends in nice. And yes, its a perfect fit.

Zagg Invisible Shield Full Body for >$10 !!
Hey guys,
I just came across an AMAZING DEAL; I was able to order the full body zagg shield for $9.24 shipped (shipping was $2.99 for me, and no tax)! This originally costs $24.99 BEFORE tax and shipping.
Here's how:
Go to: zagg.com/theshack
In the "Employee ID #" field, enter in ANY 9 digit number
Fill all fields, use a valid email address.
Can't use the same email twice.
They will then email you a 75% off coupon that can be used on ANY zagg product on zagg.com!!
Shipping cost and tax might vary depending on where you live, but either way, it'll end up being MUCH cheaper than regular price.
dang i paid 15 just for the screen
Nice find.. but can anyone say if the screen fits properly or if it's short like a lot of the other protectors?
it does NOT cover 100% falls just short at the bottom
Sweet! Worked like a charm thanks for the heads up
Excellent... and it's for 75% off the ENTIRE order! Thinking about getting "gifts" for my cousin and her husband, who have a Hero and Instinct HD... Less than $15 for 3 screen protectors shipped.
i ordered a screen for my digital camera and my friends sprint hero
Just order 2 for Total: $15.49 Just shows how cheap this stuff really is.
Thanks!
The RadioShack retail page is "temporarily down" now... consider yourselves lucky if you got the discount code already.
Edit: I just tried using the code that I had received, and Zagg cancelled it. That sucks, as I never got the chance to use it, but oh well. Did anyone's orders get cancelled?
Tried to access the site but also getting error msg of it being temporarily down...
Btw, I think the title should read "<$10" ... Not ">$10"

Wow, normally I would have ragged on someone for making that kind of mistake . I guess my excuse can be that I haven't taken a math course since calc 1 my freshman year of undergrad
so many people abused this on slickdeals. I bet they cancel all our orders
Lmao they probably got thousands of orders......"The Customer is Always Right"
Less then $6 wholesale and sell it to us for more then 75% markup! I will never pay there retail price again.
Some of the people on slickdeals who ordered a ton of skins (like 10) are saying their order status is "on hold", but I only ordered 2 and my status is "Loading dock" which is described as "Your order is on the loading dock and will be shipped shortly."
mine say loading dock as well
(( i just bought mine on ebay for $20. Full body. Sad part was i bought it yesterday too. I should have checked the forums yesterday ><
How is this product? I saw some pictures for another phone and it looked kinda weird once applied due to the wrap around gaps.
Also what is the deal everyone is talking about on the screen protectors being short? How much too short?
The screen protector is probably about 1-1.5mm short... but it seems like every product is, aside from the Martin Fields screen protector (which doesn't provide as much protection).
My order has been shipped
full body for my nexus
and screen protection for a Hero for 10euro..
mine shipped 2. but its for my digital camera. i already have a zagg on my nexus
I saw in the forum that a lot of people are searching for websites selling SGP silk, slider or sgp leather cases. (sgpstore.com currently only sales stuff for iphones... so sad)
This french export website has all of them, even zenus and lamborghini cases that cannot be found on ebay (however I ordered a SGP slider but unfortunately it will only be in stock mid-september, other stuff seems in stock tho).
Registered shipping is not cheap, so maybe you guys would like to make one big grouped order to the US (and share a little of custom fees ahah) ! If someone wants to be the manager for that he can use this thread. However if you feel lucky or oder something around 20$ if I were you i'd take the risk of the 5$ slow shipping. The admin also told me that for air parcel registered orders you can ask them to put the order as "gift" thus lowering drastically the chance of having a custom fee to pay, if you take EMS shipping you are 100% sure to pay that fee. So I don't really know what would be the cheaper, a very big grouped order, or a lot of little air parcel orders as gift, your call. Anyway the stuff being totally non existant at any US or european reseller, even if you change your mind or are not satisfied with a case I'm pretty sure you can resell it locally very fast at a higher price than your order, hell you could even auction it on ebay, I'm pretty sure it could ramp up to twice it's value.
Keep in mind the stuff there is for galaxy S i9000, cases will fit the vibrant, but the screen protectors may not, so beware.
Here it is, 4 pages of high quality cases and stuff. I checked the prices with gmarket in korea and they are about the same with shipping and screen protector included. Example on gmarket you can get a sgp gariz case for about 70000 won with shipping, here it is at about 80000 won with the same registered air parcel shipping. A fair price if you ask me. The customer service is very good, they speak both french and english perfectly and answered my questions within 5/6 hours ! There's also a lot of reports that this site is trustworthy over other forums.

If this post is against the rules, well, just tell me and i'll delete.
If you want some extra pictures about how the SGP cases shape are in closeup and other angles, theres some video reviews there : http://www.galaxy-s.fr/
Here's the vintage one for the laziests of you.

The videos and pictures are not in french they are silent ^^ so heh. And chrome translate is your friend for the articles. I also saw that guy put a review of a very nice and cheap clamshell case, but his website is out of stock, anyone seen this case elsewhere ?
well there is nothing there that i havent seen in ebay...

Please link me to the ebay store where you can find gariz or legend leather cases then.
Sgpstores only sells sgs screen protector atm.
I asked sgpunited on ebay, he says he'll have the leather cases in two weeks on ebay.
Another alternative is http://cretouch.com/ which is where I ordered my Ultra-Oleophobic shield.
the vintage looks pretty cool in that video. Too bad they don't just have a back cover only; expecting my phone to fall off while using that case lol.
They have new cases :
Back cover only Zenus vintage : http://www.exportprive.com/advanced...escription=0&keywords=galaxy S&sort=2a&page=5
Cases with kickstand 4 colors (black gold/ black silver / light red / white ) : 8$
http://www.exportprive.com/solozen-standing-hard-case-samsung-galaxy-glossy-black-p-13514.html
I bought Sandisk memory & SGP Ultra Capsule. Very good prices and services!
I was going to order from here until I got to the credit card info and was asked my birth date. I find that highly suspicious, and seeing next to none feedback about the website I decided not to order. (I really wanted their kickstand case too.)
Actually, having a redirection to your bank's website asking your birthday number is what most secured websites do.
I already ordered from them with alertpay I had no problem.
woops wrong thread
Hi, there. I bought this product:
http://www.exportprive.com/anymode-...attery-cover-galaxy-i9000-orange-p-13600.html
....and I would like to express my disapointment.
ADVANTAGES: It is really a natural leather....it feels like and smells like natural leather.
DISADVANTAGES:
1. The cover doesn't fit very well. All edges are visable.
2. Build quality is low.
3. It is made by a very thick plastick, so it makes the phone ticker.
4. The price is 45 $, so it doesn't wort it.

I ordered a Spigen Neo Hybrid case from a seller on Ebay from the US. I thought everything would be an authentic spigen case but when i received the case today, i was wrong. please refer to the pictures as I describe why it is fake so that you too do not get scammed.
1 - the packaging is incorrect. The original one does not look like this and is not in green.
2 - it does not come with the jelly bean buttons
3 - does not come with the authentication certificate so that you know it is a real one
4 - the power and volume buttons are on the TPU part of the case, then just spray painted the buttons with silver while the original spigen neo hybrid has holes for the power and volume buttons on the TPU part and the actual button is on the bumper part which makes the feel of it more clicky and better.
5 - the engraving on the side of the bumper does not say neo hybrid but NED HYBRID!!!!! are u effin serious!?!?! that right there was a dead give away.
sooo please make sure you check to see if the case has any of these that i mentioned so that you too do not get scammed. these cases are not cheap so you need to make sure you get a genuine part directly from spigen or their dealers. I have already set up a claim with ebay and will set a dispute with paypal, hopefully i get my refund sooner than later... thanks!
Did you read the description? Sometimes they explicitly mention that it is not a genuine sgp product in the description.

Here are some rules on ebay..
If the price looks to good to be true it most likely is, you get what you pay for. This is what happens when people try to be cheap and not buy direct. Spigen has a store on ebay that is official.
98% of brand name cell phone cases on ebay are not official.
If you paid close to reg price why didn't you just go to spigen direct? Were you that hard up for a few bucks?
I have a fake otterbox defender i paid about $25 for for my S3, however i didnt get pissed after buying it and you know why? I paid HALF what a real one cost and for the most part its the same damn thing, it It protects my phone just as well
Oh and PS if you message the seller and show him the things that you know make it a fake, and say you are calling spigen to verify authenticity , 9 times out of 10 they will offer a full refund without even shipping the item back

Although I can't clarify for the OP. I also received the exact item he received. Some more notes:
- The counterfeit item is much thicker. Having now compared them. When I received my NED HYBRID, I was like "this is premium? I paid $25 for this?" Quality is very inferior in the knock-off.
- The packaging will have a model# for an S3 in white. They don't change the SKU's on the counterfeit.
- The 3d Authentication Sticker says "Official SGPSTORE.COM Product" - the real one says Official SPIGEN Product or something.
I think they may have recycled the plastic cases from a previous batch (factory left overs) and made up a new slip?

I bought it on Ebay for near retail price at $25 because it was sold out at the time. I actively chose one that said it was authentic SPIGEN, made in Korea, and priced accordingly. If I wanted the chinese one, I would have paid $9 for it.
Hehe on the 2nd picture, the one of the silver frame it says ned hybrid , not neo hybrid.

i did tell the seller and opened a case with ebay but he is only offering a partial refund of 15 from the price of the phone which was 20 which is bs, i got this because it stated authentic and you are not able to falsely advertise on ebay, i know still some people do, but ebay protects you anyway if such a thing happens. the sellers feedback was also 100 so i felt good about it, and it was from US n not international.
please ! report these dicks to spigen !
open a support chat/email.

LOLz on the NED Hybrid I think that was the dead ringer for me.
have to say it "you get what you pay for"
I'm sure you paid far less than the $31.99 they charging on the site, that would have been a obvious sign for me.
I had a 7.99 off card they gave me from one of their promos, got the Ultra Crystal SP and Aluminum buttons half off, was a good enough deal for me, just ordered directly off their site with free shipping like I have many times in the past.
well the neo hybrid case isn't worth anywhere near 30 dollars
sad to see you paid 25 for a fake
this is why i never really take my chances with ebay.
id rather buy direct from people and know its authentic then take a chance n get ripped off.
i ordered the neo hybrid satin silver and its well worth the 30 i paid
Just yesterday I received a Spigen case for my new S4. Inside the case was a little card which mentioned authenticating my Spigen product. I thought to myself, "How arrogant of them to think that somebody would want to copy their cell phone case" and ignored it.
Well, I guess the joke is on me! Fortunately I just now ran the authentication on my case, and it's legit (whew!).
Thanks for this report, perhaps it will save somebody some grief. I had no idea such a thing was a problem....
Ordered a fake from China in red for 12 bucks.
I know what I'm getting at that price. Anything half price of the general set price is always a knock off.
Not spending 30 bucks for this plastic case.

yea, if got scammed as well, same case. but i keep it. it is a good scam with high quality, for half the price
I also got same product from ebay. But it's very nice quality for half price. I am happy with this deal.
I actually bought a fake from eBay thinking the bumper would at least be interchangeable with the authentic ones.
Also, another thing they do is put MEGR instead of MEGA on the back where it says the cameras MP.
Sent from my Ancient Atrix 4G.
My seller is requesting *I* send the case back to him so he can process a refund. I told him I was already in contact with Spigen (which I did file with them) and they want the case, so if he wants it back he has to provide a mailer/refund quick or it's going to them as evidence.
We'll see how he responds.
As I said. It's one thing to sale China clones that are obvious knock-offs at $9. But to package them and sale them as authentic at retail prices is downright fraud. My seller was US based and also had 100% feedback at the time. It hurts the brand. If I didn't know better, I would think "wow Spigen really sucks". Now that I have an authentic one to compare to, I know that the quality is far superior to the knock-off.

Even if you're satisfied for half-price and going to keep it, I recommend you put a neutral (doesn't hurt them) feedback stating that it isn't authentic. When I buy stuff on Ebay, I look for feedback in the neutral/negative categories to see if the seller is selling counterfeits. It helps others.
I disagree.
Neutral IS a negative in ebays eyes. .
If you are truly happy with the amount paid and the quality you got leave it at positive.
If your buying items brand new at half price and think they are authentic, then you are a fool.
The guy that paid almost full retail was taken advantage of. But sending the product to the actual company and dealing with reporting them and making threats and all this crap is just a waste, it's just makes you look petty. No offense.
Open a claim with eBay and let them take care of it.

jk, thanks OP, not bad to have a backup or 2
They have huge selection... mostly the stuff you see coming from China on eBay. For a single item, shipping might push the price over what you'd find from eBay. It seems the savings would come when buying several items and/or in bulk. For instance, I put together a cart of 6 items ranging from cases to cables to screen protectors... cart total was $17 + $9 shipping... same items individually from Free Shipping sellers on eBay would have been right at $30. The savings would compound even further with bulk purchases that bring down the item price as well as the per-item shipping. This is the kind of site you'd order from to stock your mall kiosk or mom-and-pop cell-phone shop where you could probably get $10-$15 for a case you'd pay $3-$5 for.
Holy sh*t. I love this site!
