Hahaha? LOL.

I gotcha now. ;)

I'm still thinking I'm gonna order this case. Nothing so far has turned me off to it completely.
 
Can we get back on track or is this thread going to continue its devolution with pre-adolescent scrapping which will drive away intelligent posters, including Larry Greenberg?

You also tried to cheat the system in the first place by not even pre-ordering and just ordering through the website which probably screwed things up.

Asking for a refund is one thing...using it as an ultimatum to the company by trying to sidestep everyone else in front of you is another thing and it's just plain wrong.

Correct, really just a way to get my money back faster so I can buy their updated Vapor case made out of plastic which will look the same, be more shock absorbent, and pass cell signals better.

So do you mean that if Element Case over nights you the Black / Red case that you have been waiting so long for, you would send it back? Did you place your order using the link that someone else posted in this thread?:rolleyes:
 
OFF Current Topic: :eek::eek::eek:

I just payed a visit to Element's site, it lOOks like new FAQ's are posted. I made a few in BOLD, as they were new to me, there maybe others. If this has been posted, deletion is at hand :D.

Q: Where is my order, i already paid?
A: We are currently working around the clock to ship out all orders and are hoping to have all back-ordered orders shipped out by mid-August.

Q: How do I order a Vapor Case? How long does it take?
A: Go to the Vapor Products page and register to Pre Order your case. This saves your place in line. When your turn to comes up, we will email you instructions and a link to our shopping cart.

If you have not received an email, do not hesitate, you will receive one soon.

Q: Why is the carbon-fiber attached with adhesive?
A: By not capturing the carbon fiber in the case, it keeps the case as thin as possible.
Also, special adhesive is used that is removable. We did this so you can use the case with or without the carbon plate. And to be interchangable with new clear and white back plate coming soon. Just keep the adhesive clean and you can reuse it as many times as you like. New back plates are coming soon!

Sweet, any news about a plastic case with same concept?

You must not like quality or style.

It's funny you say that, because those are the reasons I'm buying the case thanks to Greenberg's review. You must not like intelligent posting or civil discussion. ;)

Serious. Can I get an amen?
 
I'm kinda surprised by the low number of pictures we have seen posted of the Vapor 4. No black/pink 1 or 2 black/black and Larry's videos. Are you guys seeing them in other web forums? I would have though by now we would have seen hundreds. They have been working around the clock for a very long time now. If there is no problems with reception and wireless issues I will continue to look forward to mine getting in the mail.
I'm really waiting for Mr Greenburg's final verdict.
 
Yea it still looks good and I'm sure I could get one without the sim card cutout I'm just waiting for his full review to see if the reception is affected and I'll probably wait till septemeber and get the custom laser engraving to see if I can get there silly name off my case and I'll skip on the carbon fiber too because it's not lookin to hot I might use one of the phatomskinz chromatic that matches the case color or grab a carbon fiber one
 
After watching those review videos I'm pretty convinced that the Vapor cases are not worth their price...
