Stopped in at the local Barnes & Nobles while walking off a heavy dinner. They have all the Kate Spade and Jack Spade cases for 75% off original priced at 65, 75, and 125$. Got an awesome canvas style Jack Spade for 17$, cheaper than standard B&N cases and very stylish. Definitely worth checking out if your a stylish man, or your in the dog house and your wife loves her Nook as much as you do.
Thanks for the H-U! I've been looking to get something a bit more robust than the nylon sleeve I've been using

My store had the nook color cases on sale, but only the Kate And Jack spade collection.

Mine just has the original nook cases on sale.
I haven't been in since I first got my NC about a month ago they only had the Jack/Kate Spade cases on sale for the original nook.
There were many really good looking cases and I have become increasingly dissatisfied with my Lautner Cover in Night.
I was just in my local BN yesterday and they had the NC Kate Spade cases on sale along side the original nook.
too bad i just went there yesterday...

Yeah, I went there the other day with my girlfriend to pick up a case for my Nook Color and saw this sale. Was only for the regular Nook. Still a great sale! She got herself a new one (she has a Nook) for ~$33 ($125 normal)!
I just got some regular blue cover with some book-related quote on the front. I'm satisfied.

Hey Folks;
Just a heads-up that tpu-cases.com is accepting pre-orders for their matte black and matte smoked cases for our Bionics with the extended battery covers. Expected shipping date is between the 27th & 28th October. Yes,... Tomorrow or Friday. It is $12.90. Just got done ordering mine.
I am not anyway affiliated with or have any vested interest in TPU-CASES.COM. Only a Bionic owner wanting to pass the word.
Take care,
Tony
Thanks, just ordered one.
Here's the link straight to them.

Just got mine and have to say this is a nice case with at a great price. It looks good and offers a lot of protection. All ports etc are available and it adds minimal bulk, fits very snug. I'd take a pic but my phone's my only camera! Highly recommend. Again, I appreciate tpu-cases.com updating us in a different thread. More companies should be as pro-active as them!
Will be ordering mine on Tuesday

Just received mine after ordering mid-week. Fits great and I am jonesing to have some actual battery life now. It's not Otterbox-quality coverage, but good enough for office use.
Mine came today after ordering Wednesday. Fits nicely, smooth not sticky, all ports and buttons are open. Very nice case, well worth the $12.90.
Been waiting for this. Just ordered mine...
Received mine a few days ago and loving it. Great material.
Just received mine; awesome fit-and-finish, and am happy to report that it it fits the cardock (with the cardock insert removed). Excellent! =)
Received mine today, couldn't be happier with the product. Everything I wanted in an extended case, nothing I didn't...

Ordered Thursday, received Monday.
Ordered day before they started shipping any, got three days later, so actually two days.
Love the case no issues with either the desktop or the car docks.
Does this fit over the wireless charging back plate?
ordered after 3, and still got same day shipping, it's on it's way to me already
Probably gonna give this a try...been wanting the extended battery but not willing to give up my defender case

Hopefully it will fit in my back pocket, like the Nook Color did..

I have a "Camera Bag" that I got from amazon. Only about 28 bucks. There is a pocket that it will fit in perfectly because my kindle fire fits in it perfectly already. Then there is a top pocket my phone slips into for easy access.
I'll tuck it in the back of my pants.

One of the great things about being still in college is that it's acceptable to wear hoodies and tracksuit bottoms around with nice big pockets..
My Nexus will hopefully fit nicely in some of my pockets..
If not I'll just get a nice strong case and pop it in my backpack and try to be relatively careful walking around - that strategy hasn't broken my Kindle yet so if it's not broke don't fix it
I'm waiting for these to become available (debating on whether to get the blue or black one).
When I'm going to class, I'll just put it in my backpack. I won't be able to take it to work, so school, home, and relatively long car rides will be the main places I'll be using it, and I think the case will work just fine (has worked so far for my Nook Tablet at least although the case for it was made by m-edge).

Brand new Portenzo Hardback case. This was just released and is currently on sale for 2 days only @ $19.95! Watch the video for a demo of the super stick grip tape.
I'm still a very happy Portenzo BookCase customer. their quality and customer service is outstanding!

It's nice but there's no way to make this stand right?
Sounds right. No stand.
Looks a lot like the Dodo Case to me.
Ordered one. All black with a red elastic strap. Thanks!

It does, but the Dodo is way more expensive and only available in 4 colors. Portenzo has a better reputation, less expensive and way more colors to chose from. Looks like I am buying another Portenzo today!
I will post pics when I get it.
Was liking it until I saw the adhesive approach to securing the device. Like everything else about it - moleskine type design, quality materials.
Anyone have any experience with the sticky pads?
Do they leave any residue if you remove your device?
I'm assuming they are a one time use as well?

If it's anything like this one:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008A1XN28/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
Then the "sticky" is extremely sticky!
Enough so that when I tried to remove the N7, the back cover came off the tablet!
I don't mean that in some awful "it broke!" way...it's just that the adhesive is stronger than the tablet's back cover retainers.
So if you were scared to pry open your N7 with a screwdriver...this is an alternate way to open it.
But if you're careful and go slow, the tablet comes off and there is no residue.
The adhesive can be wiped down with water and when it dries, it's good to go!
I tested the case on my N7, then put my Galaxy Tab 2 7" in it, then back to the N7.
Since the Portenzo costs more than twice as much...I'd hope their adhesive is just as good if not better to work with than the $9 case!
Ordered mine yesterday in firetruck red! Pretty excited about this. I was looking for something classy but with thin profile so Bookcase came close but this hardbook was a better fit for my needs.
Does anyone now how long it takes for them to ship? Happy Friday all
I wonder how the quality compares to the dodocase.

I have the casemate tuxedo for the kindle fire using the sticky pad. It's re-usable and does not leave a residue. I sent my first kindle back and got a replacement from Amazon, no issues re-applying the pad on the replacement, just as sticky as the first time.
cant make it stand though, so a big nono for me
was going to wait till i got home to order but byt he time i did the price was back up to 39.99 :crying:
Looks like a good alternative to the Dodocase! I managed to place an order before the sale ended too. At $19.99, it was too good of a deal to pass up.
I just ordered mine (yes I know I said it looks like the Dodo but I couldn't help myself). And it was still 19.99 only I ordered the composition which added 9.99.

Can't tell the difference between classic and solid besides the color and price.
I think its a difference between a black exterior vs. a colored exterior. Both seem to be made of cloth.

Update: Although the site says to allow 3-4 weeks for processing I was shocked to receive my tracking number yesterday after ordering my case Friday night. As of this morning the package has already been processed through the sorting facility.
the hardcover seems to be the only one making sense in terms of quality and price (yes, i had a dodo case for my iPad4), but i wish they have a magnetic lock instead of the strap.
The case was delivered today. I will work on putting together a review to share.
It bears repeating that the company's site states to allow 3-4 weeks, however this case was ordered last Friday night. Quite a speedy turnaround.
Don't think anyone else has mentioned this yet. Save up to 86% Just bought a Nook 360 Stand for Nook HD for a fiver delivered. Was £34.95. Not bad! Also other accessories like screen covers and power leads on sale.

No doubt. I guess it's only fair though. They always pay way more than us bloody Yanks from across the pond- right, mate?
The Lautner covers are really nice.
At least we can get the Poetic case from Amazon for 5 bucks. It's not too shabby.

Lol. Yeah. I was kinda wanting to go with the Groovy (in blue).. like having the option to use it as a stand for video and reading on breaks. Guess I'll have to check out some of the Amazon ones. Only thing I noticed on most of those is they all seem to have that frame around the sides of the screen.. not sure if I'd like that. Does the auto sleep thing work ok with those? (I currently just have a sleeve I keep mine in that slides into a pocket in my shoulder bag, but I think a case/cover might be better.. less parts to have to deal with. Lol)

The cheap Poetic case can be found here: http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-StrapBack-Protective-Function-Manufacturer/dp/B00AAKLDN8.
I hate cases that cover the bezel. This one fits the bill, has the magnetic on/off, and does well as a stand. (side rant: I never understood manufacturers who place the inside surface of a cover on a table when in stand mode. Great way to pick up all sorts of debris and possible scratches. This one doesn't do that, thankfully.)
I'm happy with it. Looks sleek when closed. One potential caveat : it will have that new car smell for a week or so. Didn't bother me, but may some. I would have been happy with this case for 4x the price.
By the way - While I highly recommend this for the HD+, I just as highly don't recommend it for the HD. Given the way the HD is made, it will have possible problems.

Ahh OK. Hadn't really noticed that one for some reason. I had been looking at these: http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-Slimline-Portfolio-Manufacturer-Warranty/dp/B00B20N9XW Which, as you you mentioned have you putting at least part of the inside cover against the table. While the only time I'll probably be using the stand feature is at work.. those break room tables can definitely be nasty at times.
Actually now that I look at it, I remember why I'd skipped over this one, there seemed to be several complaints on Amazon of this cover damaging people's Nooks??
The Nook HD version can damage your device. The HD+ one is fine.

Really disappointed in the Lautner case. Adds a lot of bulk and not anywhere near as light as I expected. Luckily it was only £5,the original £35 is daylight robbery.
Thanks for the heads up, picked up two USB cables and chargers for less than the price of one (planned to get one anyway and handy having a spare).
they don't ship oversea (from B&N-UK-website to France/Belgium/Netherlands...)
They do from B&N-US-website, but the prices are higher and the shipment cost also (which is logical: US -> EU)
I've just ordered a Nook HD+, to start reading/try annotating texts on a tablet, thanks to their current low prices (I had to look for a place shipping overseas). It's a pitty I can't do the same with the accessories. Well, I'll have to look further for those. Or maybe see if no one I know is going to the UK anytime soon

Aaaand then there was one. Thanks for spotting that @adam_ky ! Sure beats the $32 "clearance" one I found at Wal-Mart. Lol
I'd been watching eBay and Amazon hoping for just such a find but since eBay's search ignores the "+" I found myself using 9 in the search terms to narrow it down.. this one flew right under the radar. Had $18 in my PayPal account from Ebates so this one will be free!
Nice.

I'm liking it a lot actually. Works good, not a ton of options for angles, but you only really need two anyway, ya know? I love the auto sleep/wake feature too.. the cover keeps it from coming on in my backback and draining the battery down. And it looks very nice, not cheap and plasticy.
eBay is definitely my first stop, then Amazon, then from there I go poking around the different sites .. but I'd say 99% of my online purchases are either from eBay or Amazon.
Why UK only?
Can someone buy me some things and ship them to Germany?
