It's still $80 out of your pocket. Now get a bumper for free then sell it and we'll talk
I just got mine and only waited a week for it. They are shipping the phones faster. So yeah, he probably WILL get his that quick.
That's great! I'll look into them. I wonder though if it offers better protection from drops than a regular case or even the Apple bumper. I would assume that plastic would offer better shock protection than something much more solid like metal. It seems that if the phone were to drop with this case, all of the impact would be transferred to the phone itself.
And you need to learn how to read and follow a message board thread.
See where I said PHONES? That insinuates that I am referring to iPhones, which was the subject of the coversation that I quoted.
Satirev indicated that Troop was naive (although to be fair he didn't use that word) for thinking he'd get his phone that he just ordered in a little over a week. I posted the order experience that I just had to show that his shipping estimate probably isn't that far off.
So take your sarcasm somewhere else.
why? For those that already bought the bumper apple is giving refunds. That was $30 he thought was originally a sunk cost, but now he can just pocket it and put it toward the vapor. It's not that unreasonable for him to say that.
We think alike.It's still $80 out of your pocket. Now get a bumper for free then sell it and we'll talk
obviously you have never taken an economics course either. he bought a bumper and now hes getting a refund. great, hes even. the vapor case is STILL 80 dollars. not $50....thats like going to the store to buy a $50 dollar video game, returning it, and then being like YES!!! I GOT A FREE $50 DOLLARS TO BUY ANYTHING I WANT!!!
No **** Sherlock. He is not saying it's not still $80. The point is that he has $30 that he did Not think he would have to put toward the case now, so it feels like he is only spending $50. Obviously he had previously spent $30 to get the bumper. He was excited and made a statement...no need to insult somone over something so silly
Any photos of this case besides the sideways corner edge at an angle? Want to see how big this case actually is..
Except that when you return the game, you no longer have the game. A better analogy would be if you bought the game for $50, returned to the store which refunded you the $50 while allowing you to KEEP the game, and then used those $50 for another game. You gained something.
It's a logical assumption. No cases even come close to this one, even by looking at the renders.
