I have a 15" rMBP with a Speck case on it. It's cracked. It cracked the moment I put it on and after reading reviews and forums, this is the norm and not the exception. My rMBP had a small fall last week and a portion of the case shattered. I need a new case and I need one that's not such crap that it will stress crack the moment I snap it on to my computer.

The only thing I've found looking in the past couple minutes was a Tech21 Impact case for $100. The price doesn't concern me, I just want to make sure I'm not buying more garbage like the Speck case.

So what do you guys out there have for me in the way of suggestions?

I don't mind paying a premium for a premium product but the thought of dropping $100 on a plastic case makes me sick.

All the brands are pretty much the same material....PLASTIC.

I'm actually kinda happy with my ebay case for 10 bucks. It fits fine and looks just like all the other plastic cases out there. It doesn't have a logo either which I like.

If it ever breaks, I'll shell out another $10. Also, it's feet are raised just enough that it could help with ventilation.
