Hello,

Please do reach out to me via PM, so we can reship out a set.

These are actual photos not renderings, I have a set on my iPhone 6+ and it's perfect. The most coverage and highest precision wrap in the world. Unlike cheap die-cut wraps our's are precision cut to cover 360º of the device and made in the USA.

Sorry if I sound like a Fan Boy, I truly believe our product is the best in the world. I've gone to CES, Macworld, CTIA and HK Fair every year and feel Slickwraps stands above the rest in quality and precision.

I truly want you to experience the best of Slickwraps, so please allow us to reship this order and get you something you're proud to have on your iPhone 6.

I look forward to receiving your PM or email at weston.pierce@slickwraps.com

Thank You!
Weston

Thanks for your reply, Weston. I do think you guys make great stuff, which is why I was surprised installing the nude. the other (colored) skins I've purchased have been perfect.

I've tried both BSE and Phantom Skins, and the set up time on those takes forever- so I was pumped that Slickwraps seemed to cure faster. Maybe I just got a bad cut.

Thanks for the offer, I'll shoot you a PM.

I look forward to turning this experience around and getting a SW on your device.

I'm spoiled by Amazon Prime. I order it, it ships, I have it two days later.

What I find most frustrating with companies, is when they slap on a tracking number, send out an email saying an item is shipped, but then the company takes several days to get it to the shipping company (whether it be USPS, UPS, Fedex, etc). While having something sitting in a warehouse "processing" for days on end still annoys me... at least it's honest. Don't tell me something is shipped but then take 3-4 days to actually ship it!

Yeah, the sitting on Shipped stinks.

I live a state away from an Amazon warehouse (I've actually wrapped gifts there one year to benefit a greyhound rescue). I used to get my Amazon purchases within 2-3 days without prime. Then Prime came along and my packages easily take 7-10 days. They are building an Amazon center within my state (25 minutes from my house) and the ST push is getting orders sooner, but in reality it is simply to ensure collecting Taxes on the items. I doubt I will see any difference in delivery speed.
 
Everyone keep an eye on the mail not the status. I received my Naked wraps for my iPhone 6 yesterday and got the shipping email this morning so they might have shipped but never updated in the system due to the back log.
 
I hate every case I've looked at. Anybody have experience removing a skin in a year or two down the road and having it work out okay? I'm weary that it will come off easily and/or without residue when it comes time to resell.

oh ya.... they got us over a year ago on the whole tax garbage :mad:

We've had some very dedicated customers whom love to report back on FB and Twitter when they upgraded iPhones. A lot of them post photos showing a 1+ year old wrap. I don't recall them stating any residue as a concern.

The material by design should never transfer adhesion to a surface.

I'll track down a few posts.

----------

Are we suppose to get a shipped notification?

We just resolved the updating tracking issue. Like Matt mentioned orders went out and unfortunately the system bogged down when it came to updating.

Humans Won the race!

Expect to see an update in the next few hours.

if they are using 3M to cut their skins from, then no.... there should be no residue when removing the skin.

i had to remove a skin made with 3M from my last iPhone for applecare replacement and there was no residue whatsoever!
 
sooooooooo who's gotten their black friday order(s)?

if you've gotten yours: what time did you place your order? and did you get a $20 gift card? $5 gift card? or NO gift card?
 
My fiancé and I started our process at midnight. Her order went through at 12:04 and she got hers today. She got a $5.00 gift card. I started right after her and didn't get accepted until 12:09 and I haven't received mine yet.

I got my order today. I ordered a back wrap for the iPhone 6 Plus and a full wrap for the MacBook Air, both in maple wood. I only got a $5 card, which was a little disappointing considering the fact that I ordered the second the sale started.

The fit and cut of the phone wrap is quite good overall. The holes match up as well as I think is possible. But the corners are tricky to get looking seamless, especially if you've never done one of these before. I can still feel where they come together with my finger, which kind of bothers me a little bit. The maple is a lot more brown than I had thought from the photo posted earlier in the thread (see below). I had hoped it might be whiter to be a better match for my white phone.

The size of the MacBook Air wrap also seemed to be just slightly off -- a bit too small so that there is a tiny bit of the metal showing on all sides. It think it's intentional on the bottom, because of the way the MacBook is designed, but on the top it seemed like it should be just a fraction of a millimeter bigger on all sides. I was hoping it would give the illusion that it was made of wood, but it's not quite there.

Overall, I can't say that I'm totally happy, but they're not bad.

We received the nudes for both my 6+ and my wife's 6 and I can't say it went well.

First off one of my two back wraps was damaged, it looks like it had peeled away and stuck to the inside of the packaging when it was inserted. The wrap is nearly the same size as the package so I can see how this happened.

We found the nude material is much harder to work with than the other wraps. The first one my wife tried didn't match up and the second time she cut the bottom off to fit it and left it that way.

I got mine on pretty well but it was a huge effort, and I still don't quite like the way the corners fit and the consistency of the finish. I've done a lot of wraps and this material was among the more challenging I have used and far more difficult than the carbon fiber wraps etc.

Back to the Shumuri case for me for now..
 
Here's a tip if you want to return the skin, or save for reuse later, take it off the device & stick back on paper then blowdry-- it will flatten out like new!!
 
Back wraps - Slickwraps destroys the competition

Placed my order @12:06 & received the package for here in arizona on Dec 5th (altho it was at the post office on the 4th). Ordered 3 full skins, only one $5 giftcard included in parcel.

I placed an order at 12:01 CST on Black Friday. After spinning for minutes it went through at 12:04. Then a second charge was placed. (For a single purchase)

I tweeted and customer service said only one should be charged it was an error.

I also asked if I got a $20 gift card since I placed within seconds of midnight (it was 1am my time) Customer Service said yes. I was getting a $20 Gift Card.

Got the skin yesterday. Opened today and only see a $5 gift card. I still have yet to see any refund on the second charge. I also was contacted last week via email if it was a true second order or an error. I said error I only ordered one.

As of now, disappointed. Westen has shown to be a great person here so will see what happens.
 
Yeah hopefully they work it out for us seems like it would be a good opportunity blown for positive brand recognition if they dont intend to follow thru, or maybe this was just a play to ride the ip6 wake & spike profit margins who knows...for the sake of folks who purchased these for their new devices I hope they atleast resolve the obvious problems, but then again a promotion of this size maybe just swamped and its as simple as that. I liked what I had seen from SW- well mostly before delivery lol- and still willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Anyways so I PM'd Weston with my concerns- mainly that I was sent the gator leather instead of the smooth-grain & only one $5 giftcard for 3 sets of full-body wraps. I also suggested an easy resolution, considering that both parties would likely want minimum hassle at this point, in which I would keep the gator leather in exchange for the $15 loss on giftcard & then they also ship the correct item to me asap. Thought it might be a good compromise since the leather was my fav & wouldnt mind another cut just for variety. We'll see hopefully get a response soon after the weekend & I will update then. Keeping the faith- RJ
 
This is what one of our 6+ wraps looked like when we got it. I gather it had accidentally peeled away when it was inserted into the packaging as it was a tight fit.

This was a challenging install and I wish I had had a second wrap for another try.

Yikes!! Try to fold it back into place, then start heating with a blowdryer until it has straightened out. Then you can begin the install if this makes you more comfortable.

If possible could you post some pictures of one of the phones with the nude skin on? We haven't seen any users post any yet.
