Are you sure you are not the ripoff seller on Amazon? $36 for something that sells on ebay for $8-$15 ??😱
kaikai830, That back is not a skin right ? It is an actual complete replacement of the back housing, correct......just want to confirm because of the way the apple cutout looks.....it looks like a skin, lol. Thank you for all your help and guidance, cheers

sure..... its me.. u child......the guy mentioned amazon...I was just locating what he was talking about.. I am sure the concept is lost on you.....
I bought it on ebay also from a US seller because I wanted it to arrived faster. Mine doesn't came with the flash diffuser but have no problem with the flash. Here's the link from the seller I got mine from.

I'm pretty sure the other link that I've posted is the same back but for $5 less. If you don't mind waiting a few weeks for to ship from china.

You can remove from the original if you want but I wouldn't do to mine. I did once before for the first back that I bought that had the flash problem, but I took it off of a broken original back piece that my friend gave me. Actually I don't have any flash problem with these new backs so I don't think you really need the flash diffuser.

You have to carefully pry it off. if not you'll scratch it, but it come off pretty easily though.
Ok so here's a pic I just took in total darkness without the flash diffuser.

Lol, yea you're right. It's more like I'm losing my mind. I did put the flash diffuser on but took it off already because I don't see any difference. Actually I took those pics awhile already and forgot about it, but I can tell you for sure that these new back I have have no flash issue. Even without the flash diffuser.
Haha I see 🙂 I know the diffuser doesn't matter technically because I have a white back for my ip4 without one. Honestly I just like it for the looks!
Obviously the child doesn't know the meaning of spam. Haven't been given much of an education have you?
*yawns* I am happy to carry on 🙂 I certainly will not be insulted and accused by the likes of you... so BRING IT ON 🙂 😀 Some people may let you get away with it, not me. P.s there is no name calling, I am just pointing out facts, you on the other hand are making unfounded accusations. 🙂
Edited:
I offended you. I apologize. lets move on, what say ? I sent you a PM with the same message, so just PM me, cheers.

do not buy from iphone4parts.com
They advertise high quality glass parts but the sad fact is that this stuff isn't high quality at all. They're selling the same products available on ebay at half the cost.
One might say, i want to buy from a site that has some sort of customer service... their customer service sucks. When they ship damaged items... GUESS who is responsible for the shipping back? Good luck proving that the damage was done before you received it and not from a "mis install" They won't even begin to work with you until you file a dispute with your card company.
Best bet is to find what you want on their site, then look for the same exact item on ebay. Guaranteed to find it. They're also marketing their stuff as OEM which it is not. A majority of their products are branded with apple logos "designed in california", serial numbers and the whole works. APPLE DOES NOT MAKE THESE PRODUCTS. Even the black and white replacement pieces are not not OEM.
