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 found a leather wallet case from Samsung, and I really like the design of the natural colored one, but it has been out of stock for quite a while...
does anyone know where I can buy this case?
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/ET-0I500NLGHPW
I have done a lot of searching and have yet to come up with anything for that specific case.
Amazon does have the black one but not the natural case.
You might try emailing Samsung and asking them if there know of a 3rd party vendor that has stock.
Or hopefully someone here will have some insider information for you!

I like the black one also, but natural seems to be more appealing...
I sent a back-order request to Samsung 2 months ago, but haven't got anything back from them...
2 months? What are they handmade?!
What you might try is looking around here -> http://www.wirelessemporium.com/
They have TONS of leather cases and wallets. The Fascinates are mostly black but you might be able to look up the EVO or droid X and Im sure their cases would fit our phones quite well. Personally I like the Carbon Fiber one.

It would be faster if it is handmade...I think samsung doesn't make them anymore
I see couple nicely designed cases on that site, but I'm looking for one that locks the phone inside and just have the cover folds back to gain access to the phone without taking it out; like the samsung leathet case.
Hello everyone. I just wanted to share my find.
I found these cases on the internet, ebay, and then I thought "wow 15 euros is too much for a case that I've never heard of" so I went onto Aliexpress and found them! I got 4 of them for under 5 euros. That's a fantastic deal.
Check these out!
See attachments, it seems Dropbox is giving me images for hosting.
They're VERY well built, and fairly thin:
They don't give any issues with the camera (even with flash)
OK, it isn't a UAG case, but serves VERY well. I really like them. The biggest benefits are
1) the quality- it feels great in the hand, and adds a lot of grip and doesn't make it feel cheap either. It feels very sturdy.
2) dirt cheap
3) it's QUITE thin. I have a few more cases, like the UAG which I also reviewed, but these are the cases I use more than not because of their thinness and since I got a bunch of colors, I change them out every once in a while .
Just give them a search on the net!
what's the name of the case so I can search on ebay? haha
Looks nice and solid.

On Aliexpress this is what it said "Heavy-Duty Construction Durable Protection Case For Samsung Galaxy Note 4 IV Cellphone Back Cover For Galaxy Note 4 IV N9108V" You can generalize it a little more of course to see if you can find them from other sellers or on ebay.
here is the link

I didn't think putting links was permitted.

I have this case, it's garbage in my opinion
Hope this isn't too rude.... To each their own, but,....
That is one "only a mom could love" meaning (to me, if course....) one fuglyass case, no matter the material nor color! To each their own acme like i said - + - don't want to be rude to anyone.... But why Mar your note 4 with such fuggliness? Better looking nekkid

Haha, it's funny because I can't stand my Note 4 "nekkid" xD. I think it's feeling is just terrible and the look of that ugly faux plastic is just horrible. But as you said, to each his own! Then you're wondering, 'why get it?' well, it's easy. It was one of the best phones available and I wanted to upgrade .
the best case I've ever used on the note for was the ringke fusion

I'm actually looking at that case for one simple reason. The loop. When I go on vacation I am always afraid of dropping my phone. But no, not on the floor. But rather into a river or over a ledge. Haha. What's your experience with that case?

Hello All,
It seems to me that none of the big boys in the case market don't think there is a market to make cases for the Nexus line of phones (5x/6p).
I've sent emails to UAG and lunatik, a facebook message to Otterbox and got the responses that there is either no information or no interest in making the cases for these phones.
This is a call for you to bug those companies to show them there is demand for good quality cases for the Nexus line of phones.
Once the reviews come out there will be more demand but for now let's make some noise and email or flood the Facebook pages to let them know that we want the cases.
If we can show them there's people who will buy them maybe they will get their head out of their asses and put in the effort
Post who you have emailed and update with responses. With some luck and effort, we might be able to change their minds
There is a similar post in the 5x accessories forum. if we are to get anywhere we need to work together
Otterbox: https://www.facebook.com/otterbox
Diztronic: Cases coming over the next couple of weeks
UAG: [email protected]
Tech 21: https://www.tech21.com/en_us/contacts
Incipio: [email protected]
Spigen: Cases coming over the next couple of weeks
Cover up: [email protected]
Lunatik: [email protected] (these cases are beyond durable and sexy as hell)
Love Mei: http://www.lovemeicase.com/index.php...mation/contact (knock off of the company above)
If I'm missing any companies, Please let me know and I will add their contact info
Maybe post some links to their email addresses and FB pages?
Edit: links are up, sent one email to each, will send another round in a few days.
gonna create a list in the second post
if you know of any emails or fb pages, please post
Also maybe we should all focus on one manufacturer for say a week for instance. All if us, as a whole, Just bomb that one company for a week or so. Not literally bomb them.... Send emails i mean. Lol
Fired an e-mail / DM to each one of those linked in the second post.
One message to each from each person will work, as long as they see there's interest and the numbers to make it worth their while

I always buy Spigen cases. Let's hope they make a case for Nexus 6p.

I made a poll in that OP and emailed them several times while linking them to the OP as well as asking them via their chat. I think that contributed to their decision but it was a community effort to request the cases now my only hope is that they make more of them.
List updated

This is beyond stupid. The consumer should not have to contact these companies with manufactured pleas for their product.
If they choose not to appease the Nexus market then so be it, several more will rise to fill in the gaps.
Verus for example has already produced several gorgeous cases while it took Spigen weeks to not only come up with contradicting email replies, but a product as well.
Use your wallet, and don't be a tool to these companies.

Well if you want something and they aren't making it what's wrong with asking? I agree that we shouldn't need to but at the end of the day it's nice to have more options.
Hey all
Since the new nexus devices are getting amazing reviews and selling like hot cakes, maybe we should send another round of messages to the manufacturers again to see if they have changed their mind

I just discovered a US-based company called Carved (www.carved.com) that make wooden-backed cases. They've made cases for the Nexus 6 and 5 in the past, so I sent them an e-mail asking for one for the 6P. Some of their designs are really quite unique; I'd definitely pay a premium for something of quality and made in North America.
In other words, I'm asking people to e-mail these guys with requests, too
Let's pick a company to bug about waterproof cases. I'd pay good money for a waterproof cases.

This. I'd love to use my phone for fieldwork (and just generally in the rain), but LifeProof is all I know and they will likely never make a case for anything that isn't an iPhone or Galaxy. I just got one of those Ziplock-looking bags off Amazon as a stopgap measure.

Please go here and request the Obex for the 6p. I had one on a previous phone and loved it! Would be awesome for the 6P. Seidio makes amazing products.
Asked them via a support ticket if the would be making 6P cases, response below:
Hi <oodLes>,
Thank you for writing in! Unfortunately, a this time we do not have plans to make cases for the Nexus 6P. That may be something we decide to do in the future!
Please let me know if I can help you with anything else.
Thanks!

Disappointing as I wanted to continue over my case from my Nx5. I'm not sure but if we ask enough times they may change their mind?
This is very unfortunate. I'm shocked they made Samsung and really old Nexus cases but refuse to make one for the 6P.
probably read the "bent after 2 days" thread, and didnt want to deal with some of you
Hahaha Dat cheeky reply
Droid-Life just posted an article where they received a Carved case for the Nexus 6P.
http://www.droid-life.com/2016/02/25/carved-wood-phone-cases-nexus/
Functionally they're literally identical to the #WoodBack Explorer cases made by Cover-Up, but Carved seems to offer a much wider range of designs beyond different types of wood grain, with their coloured resin swirls. You definitely pay a premium for that extra level of uniqueness, though! I'm pretty happy with my aromatic cedar #WoodBack case, but I'm not going to deny that Carved makes some really slick-looking cases, too
Those are really awesome looking cases. I posted on their Facebook page. Hopefully they release one for our phones soon
I believe they have released a number of cases for our 6P under the Satellite series.
