Okay looks like im the one that has to point it out.
UM GUYS?! leeb has not made another post since posting that ONE picture 6 pages ago - his only post ever.
Who does that? he creates a username to post a picture that everybody is foaming at the mouth to see, and doesn't say another damn word?!
I call shenanigans!!!!

amen, there is a conspiracy here. I'd never ever pay money for this glorified bumper, yeah it looks cool but where are some REAL HD pics of this thing. Something is up, to the ones pre-ordered, I might be concerned...
Mods please close this, and can we start a new one when the case is actually available and people actually have imageS to show of it?
Are Zagg really that bad? I just bought some
Got it for free on the BB, and it was pretty good, very thick, screen was perfect after being smushed against keys, coins etc.

Why must this thread be closed? I want to hear what happens if and when people call and ask the company as to what has happened with their orders. Perhaps the case may not even become available. It really seems quite uncertain and you wish to have it shut down?
How about you just ignore this thread for a while.

Like I said, hand models are a busy bunch of people!
I'm suggesting an updated New thread with easier to find information instead of 20 pages of us complaining
The discussion mustn't ever stop. Though efficiency in gleaning information can start with a new thread with the recent, albeit minimal developments.

well due to the fact that we are still complaining, this thread should remain open
A new thread will still have complaining.
I have been reading since the beginning.
I have been bookmarking it everyday and delete the old bookmark and it keeps it fresh.
I have emailed them about 8 times called about 15 times, left 5 messages and never got a response and I ordered the first week of July #497*.
They are a legit business and I can understand the delays from demand that was unexpected. However, Element needs to take time out to answer emails and return phone calls. Producing the product is only half the job, following up and having good (or some kind of) customer service is the other half that they are NOT doing. They are in a high demand and starting a new product that's no 40 hour work week its a 24 hour a day job till they are caught up. I don't care if it is late in the evening they should be at lease answering emails. They need to hire a few more people to deal with customer service while they are taking care of the product. Mabee they should be the ones that take an economics class because here marginal utility is staring to not equal the last dollar spent. This will cause people to start getting refunds and it will put them into a situation.

I would rather them keep their nose to the grindstone instead of taking time to answer your phone call. Them talking to you on the phone isn't going to do anything to speed up production. Only slow it down. I'm not buying customer service, I'm buying a product. If they have to employ another person to answer your call that only makes their production costs go up and possible the cost of the product to the user.
We know that this company has been making products for a while now. They aren't a large company, but their product is very good. It's now a waiting game while they try to fulfill a large quantity of orders. It will happen. I know we all want it now, but complaining isn't going to make it happen any faster.
Good news for Vapor Pre-order Customers:
First, thank you for your patience while we retooled our shop and waited for Apple's announcement regarding the antenna issue.
Before accepting more Vapor orders, we wanted to be sure that Apple was not going to recall the iPhone 4. During this wait, we retooled our manufacturing facilities and are now back in production of Vapor cases at an accelerated rate! With the exception of Pre-order Groups 1 and 2, orders will be received ahead of schedule. More colors will be available when your pre-order is ready to process. We will also offer replacement parts in a variety of colors beginning in August.
To order your Vapor case, wait for an email from us notifying you that it is time to place your order. At that time, you can view the latest color offerings and make your selection. We will release new colors throughout July and August.
All early pre-orders that have not shipped will be shipped next week. We expect all remaining pre-orders to ship by mid August. Some will ship sooner.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Regards,
Element Case
P.S. If you've left a voicemail for us, and we haven't returned your call, we thank you for your patience as we do our best to get back to everybody.

Just received this email as well. Looks like they read the forums here!
This pretty much responds to every issue that's been mentioned in this thread so far.
This definitely is positive.
The only question I have is when should anybody here receive their shipment? How were these items shipped? The 12th or later? Are there any tracking numbers and has anyone received a tracking number?
Just got an email from Vapor:
