I hate to break it to you - but those cases look like every other generic ebay case.. apart from being £20 over priced...

Thanks for the link. Guess I was given misleading information. I was shown amother website showing the same 'official' Google accessories so did not question it when i saw it on the mobilefun website. Mobilefun website has actually now changed the description of the products so maybe they were also misled. Will update original post

Avoid these cases mate, they are an absolute rip off. Just standard Chinese eBay cases with a hefty price tag. There are plenty of better cases out there (and cheaper too).

NIIICE!!!! thank u
Except for a few covers and screen protectors, its all just generic phone accessories. Also, i got a good chuckle from the Memory section selling microSD cards with "Compatible with Google Nexus S Phone" at the bottom of each listing. Technically I guess they explain that away by selling a 56-in-1 Media Reader, but in that case even an old Compact Flash card could be listed as Nexus S compatible.
Oh well, got my hopes up for a sec.
Another templated generic accessories site like the rest. Nothing to write home about.

Nice! Even though I got a slim keyboard case (won't be here until late August), I ordered this as well...just in case the keyboard case sucks. Hell, it's only $5.00 with free shipping!

Yeah, there's something fishy here...the product isn't even in stock yet, however there are several 5 star ratings from people who already received them. And I looked at the review history for several of them, and they seemed to rate everything 5 stars...
Careful guys. It could be a scam. It's littered with phony 5 star reviews.

Is it even possible to scam through amazon? Aren't there some sort of licensing involved? What about PayPal? And if so they are wasting there time with a $5 scam... I guess we'll find out considering my order was placed and I've received my receipt...

I don't think it takes much to be a 3rd party seller. Either way, I don't think the company will completely rip you off. I think the scam is selling cheap case made to look a lot better than they are by planting fake reviews.

if it doesn't arrive or is a poor product, amazon will refund your money
i returned a $6 kindle fire case with keyboard because it was some knockoff of what the pictures stated (it was missing the spring hinge to hold it in place, the stitching was just for show and the glue was around coming off within 24 hrs) - issue resolved very quickly with little hassle

Yes. I don't think a company is going to commit total fraud on a $5 item. But, it's quite obvious they're planting phoney reviews. If they're shipping cases for $5 including the shipping and making a profit, I wouldn't expect too much when it arrives.

The price seems way too good to be true.
I'm beginning to suspect that companies price these kinds of items insanely low at first, get tons of buyers, then get tons of awesome reviews, then they jack up the price and ride the positive reviews straight to profit (see the blurex magyc case as an example). In other words, pays to get in early on these deals (except I won't because I want an easy rotating case, not Velcro reattachment stuff).

This is the reply I got from the seller:
Hi dear customer,
Thank you for your email and concern. We are sorry for the misunderstanding and confusion about those product reviews. In fact, we usually produce around 100 samples for each new item before start producing large quantity. Especially for the tablet cases, we have confirm the case is perfectly fit the tablet. Those product reviews are the reviewers who received our sample in 2-3 weeks ago.
Thank you for your referral and patience for this back order. Please contact us at any time if you have any questions when you receive the case.
Thank you for your time and have a nice weekend
Sincerely,
Accessorise

This is what I wrote them originally: I should've posted this first... my bad..
Hello I recently purchased your product and would like confirmation that this is a legitimate product because I have referred your product to many people. They have questioned your product due to its obviously fake reviews. If you would please email me a confirmation or reference of yourself as a seller it would be good for your businesses and my peace of mind. Thank you.
I guess it makes sense and helps a Lil that they responded..

That's what I'm thinking too. A couple of cases that I'm eying for already increase their prices and shipping as well. I just ordered blue one. Not too much to loss. Just $5. We'll see.

which cases specifically? click on the 2 new from xxx option and choose the one that isn't fulfilled by amazon. for example, http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B008D2Q8RG/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new

I realise this is an old thread, but if you are still looking for this case, I was also, and bought it from aliexpress.com. Search for 'HardBack Protective leather case cover for The Google Nexus 7 7-Inch Android Tablet 1 pcs Free Shipping'. Mine came from the seller 'Huajian Digital product outlet store' and arrived fairly quickly. Sorry, I cannot post a link as I am still too new...

Kind of, but it does not have a hand strap and is missing the 7th clip on the side. And the smart cover is intermittent... GRR
I was going to buy the caseen, but for $11 compared to $30, it seems just as good.
I have posted a review and some pics of this also:

I love the way that looks and folds into the screen too,
however is it safe buying from the seller considering they are based in China and i read there are a lot of scammers on alibaba/aliexpress
i have a similar one buyed a year ago,it look like the kb in this links above...and personally i can't use it due to the less spaced buttons and phisical dimensions of it too little..

All of these keyboards are built cheap but still work decently. I've bought a couple like this and the knot real complaint I have is that they are a lot smaller than you think. Its pretty annoying to type on.

Thank you for the input. A local consumer electronics store "Best Browse" may have a 7 inch net book around. Probably comparable in size. I think I'll give that a shot to see how cramped it may be. Worst case scenario I'll have a $25-$30 hard shell case. Best case scenario it is a decent keyboard to get some typing done when there isn't a full keyboard around.

How is this much better than the portrait keyboard?
I work in a store that sell elektronic accesories and we have this for the ipad. It's quite good quality. But the pad is quite unprotected when folded.
I have only tested it a few times and can't speak anything about battery time.
Hope this helps a bit.
And i had some experience with aliexpress. And the sellers that had a few reviews that i barted with have done their job. I haven't had any problem with them. Always got my goods, maybe quite late sometimes, but I got them.

Different tablet, different size, etc. There are a lot of factors that can determine it. The blatantly obvious one would be that the Nexus 7 is 7' not 10 with the iPad.
I'm interested in one, however I'm waiting for reviews to appear. If it turns out to work great, I'll get one to take notes in class with.

Try it in both upper & lower case. If that doesn't work I would tweet or email them. They are in my experience really wanting to go the extra mile. The code I received in an email from them this morning before I updated this so it is official & should work. N.B They seem to respond quicker to tweets. Their twitter name is @seidioseidio
Here is a grab of the email
Re: Seidio 15% off with code until 21st March 2013
With the cheapest shipping option being a very expensive $8+, it's $2 cheaper to buy it with Amazon Prime without the coupon. But thanks for posting it. "spring2013" worked fine for me.

So worth it
Even without the discount, this is the best case I've tried so far. The built in stand is great for movie viewing, article reading, etc. I am sure i will never get a different case again!! I hope this helped anyone who may be on the fence about getting one of these.
I've updated the OP to reflect the new discount code rather than starting a new thread.

For us foreigners, Amazon (US site not UK) can be cheaper. I just checked for you & the cheapest postage for you to Singapore is $15.61 & the case is $39.65 making it $55.26 in Total. So it works out cheaper than Seidio. I don't know if that helps you at all. I bought mine from the US Amazon site for this reason.
