Well it arrived today and I was excited to receive it.
Though that was short lived. Despite the case being from one of element cases 'authorised retailers' I've noticed some discrepancies between what I have received and what others describe.
Firstly the Speed Wrench is silver not the black silver ive read the comp comes with. Secondly the suede back piece was on a clear backing that is over sized not the white I've seen in unboxings of the comp. Finally, and this is the kicker, the screen shield package is below what I expected and had no branding on the squeegee card and the actual selephane it was in has a tiny gold sticker saying 'made in china'.
All in all I'm pretty pissed off as you can imagine, I would have expected it had I ordered from somebody not on the authorised retailers but to get what I believe is a fake from one of them is a joke.
I've already emailed element case to say I believe I have received a fake from one of their authorised retailers and described why. As soon as they confirm that it is indeed a fake I will be requesting a full refund from the company I bought it from.
EDIT I've also just noticed that where the plastic cap meats the aluminium frame isn't quite flush, the plastics cut at a diagonal and is shorter than the aluminium but this might just be where it's not on tight enough,
Either way I've taken it off my phone and put it all back in the packaging.
Please keep us up to date on this. I noticed my screen saver packaging says made in china, fit was bad and so I exchanged the case. Took two atempts to get that done. Waiting on second Vapor Pro Stealth now. Even the knock offs say "Made in the USA" I am just wondering to myself.
I ordered two knock offs just to compare. We will see when they if they ever get here from China.
