Because they are identical. Trust me. I have both 007 cases and a silver/silver case in hand and they are the same exact finish not differences but the logo not being on the 007 with serial numbers. thats it. the pictures are not very good quality I just snapped them real quick with my phone.
So they charged more to stamp numbers instead of "Vapor" on it? Gotta love the definition of "limited edition" LOL
Obviously not laughing at you, so don't take it that way...just find it funny that they didn't think anyone would notice that it's the exact same friggin case

Haha, I think it is funny that people looking at pictures are saying the guy who actually has looked at the things in real life doesn't know what he is seeing in person. Because we all know how accurate pictures are to real life.
I got shipping confirmation last Friday, but no delivery confirmation number. It's traveling USPS priority.... so 2-3 business days, but it's been 5 business days and still no case.
Anyone else having the same issue? Last time I ordered I got the shipped email, and the next day I got my cases.

At first, I thought my 007 looked like any ordinary silver. In certain lighting, the finish looks stunning. I am happy with my purchase
My status for my 2 vapor frost cases ( blood red & graphite ) has just been updated to awaiting shipment. I'm very happy about that. I placed my order 2 weeks ago. Its a lot faster than my last order.
The red might be the same as their normal red. I'm not sure. But due to the finish being diffrent it should have more of a glazed look vs a sold matte. I'm thinking that it will look really diffrent just for that reason. I've only seen pics of the graphite so it must be something they have just completed. I know I waited along time on my 1st order because I ordered a bl/bl and a bl/ pink for the girlfriend and I had to wait an extra month for my order because they were still perfecting the pink andonizing.
How long did you have to wait between pre-order and actually getting the code to order? I've been waiting now for about a month, just wondering how long I should expect to wait.
Also - with regards to the carbon fiber backing: is it actually a solid piece, or the same 3M carbon fiber colored name tag that atomic and some others are using?

I registered to pre order mid July, and nothing yet. I've sent several requests to element case asking them if they actually have my email Address on a list, and all I get is the standard response...it won't be long now. Yet they still advertise on their site that pre ordering takes about 6-8 weeks to actually be able to order. A crock of shi*

How many times did you have to pre register to order? Some of us here have registered 3 months ago and still haven't been able to order our first case
Rhino - the matter silver frame of the frost along with my red vapor side bar is my defacto everyday std combo now...it gets so many compliments...the graphite side bar is sidelined for now ...very boring looking....
It seems to be hit and miss. I've done a few pre-orders with them starting in August. Some people wait a week some others seem to wait a month or more. I waited two months after paying with my first order. I It may have a lot to do with the model you ordered. I don't like their carbon sticker cause it covers my apple logo. I use the SGP and Lucky labs covers and I've been really happy with them. I've done 20 installs for other people and the fit is very good. The Lucky Labs Tecksure skin cover a little more of the back than SGP.
Yeah, I ordered both colours cause I wasn't sure which one I would like the most. My 1st though was the Graphite but the red really stands out but it's not such a stark contrast say with Black/Red. I wasn't going to order more cases but when I saw the frost I had to do it. I'll post pics when it gets here so we can see if the red cap I get matches yours. I'm guessing it will show up around the same time as my new Exovault, hinged engraved. Looking forward to getting my mitts on that one too.
Sorry. Maybe I misunderstood you. That is the paypal account info for element. What were you looking for if it wasn't a paypal email address?
Oh, I get it. You thought I posted my own. Hahah. Good one. No that is the account my money went too after I paid. Im sure another member here can vouch for that.
White/Rhino is correct here. I too think mayakukla thought you (Rhino) posted your own Paypal account. But Jeff Sasaki is the owner of Element.
I though that was your pp and you put it as a joke. Could you provide any proof that is their account? Thanks for your help
