I know many of you people already purchased the Replicase but I just got an email from eBay that they're having a sale so anyone who hasn't got them yet should go ahead right now. It's a dollar off, not too much but the cases were 9 bucks to begin with so it's pretty darn good. I grabbed a red one right now :D I expect ot have it on Monday since i live pretty close

Do my eyes deceive me or does the case look like it offers some kind of "lay on table design"?

Does that mean the screen doesn't touch the table when you lay it down? :p Yeah it doesn't touch the table haha.

These are great low profile cases but I'm not buying anymore until someone fixes the flash hole. They all have flash problem to include the black one. I've even tried a black sharpie and even flat black paint.

I think I'll get another one (or two). I keep using my white one even though I have purchased more expensive cases. Thanks for the information!

For those that have already received theirs, do you mind posting a few pictures? I really wanna know what the top, bottom and sides look like.

Thanks! :D

here's a pink one I got for my daughter - they are really high quality and better than some of the 30 dollar crap I got from the big companies:

I'd have to disagree. I got the white one and it looks really cheap in person. $9 was wY too much.

I was quite disappointed with my red one I received a few days ago. The finish has annoying blemishes and I just took it off after a few minutes and went straight in the bin. I'm going naked - my Sena case is due to arrive in tomorrow! :D

I just picked one up last night...red. I have heard good things and bad, but I was willing to try it out.

"Front raised edges recess your screen to protect it when placed face down"

Looks like you can put it face down.

Has your daughter said anything about flash issues? Worst comes to worst I will take a file to it.

Flash issues are there with this case, no doubt about it.

I took something similar to a dremel with a spherical cutter:

it happened to be the same size as the camera hole so I stuck it in there and pushed towards the flash hole, till I was happy :D

if i was careful, i'm sure it could have came out a little better. the laquer layer gets raised a little bit when doing that.

If you want one of these auction it! I have now won 3 of them for less than the sale price of 2. Got a light pink one for $2.25 tonight! :p

Some people are silly, just checked and some other cases ending this hour are going for over $9 on auction style.

I have a feeling in a year or so all ip4 cases will have bigger flashholes to include these replicases. It will probably be an industry norm.
