I don't mean to be mean. It's just very apparent that this company has taken Grove's idea and made it cheaper. Their cases are bamboo as well, and the designs are also laser engraved, but their prices cut Grove's by almost half.

They haven't included enough detail images to determine if the laser engraving rivals the detail of Grove's. But I can tell that the craftsmanship of the case itself is rougher. It looks thicker, the port holes are bigger and there is no tapered bezel.
Still, it looks like a more affordable alternative for people thinking of buying a Grove case, but unwilling to pay $100 or more for one or wait 2 months for it to arrive. If anyone decides to try this company out, please update this thread with your impressions.
