why buy them from China when you can get them in 2-3 days from USA, just got the traditional Black Ops style, black with amber corner hinge.
pm me if interested!

True, but as already mentioned, it's already been ordered so I'd rather not just place another order when one is already on route (hopefully!)
Can folks on here give an indication as to how long it takes for the cases to arrive from point of order?
Thanks cruiser, seems like I'm on schedule then - hopefully next week!
Great pictures by the way

At least be honest about what you're selling.
Lol wow

You are seriously asking why we are buying from China? They are cheap. Yours are not if they are in fact $75.

I think he means the name Sector 5 and Element Case are copy written names.
Using them on a fake isn't exactly honest. I don't think you're not surprised by this. The thread is called "Fake Sector 5 Case Reviews". Using the name VZ grips is misleading they are not made by VZ. The ones made by VZ aren't rubber.
Oh, excuse me I didn't get that the truth was added by Partridge after the = sign. I was dense. Good comment Partridge.
I mean you shouldn't advertise the real specifications when you're selling a cheap replica. You shouldn't claim you have a backplate machined out of G10 by VZ-grips of Florida when you are actually selling a poorly cast rubber backplate from China. You shouldn't claim that it is machined out of a solid block of aluminum when it is made of cast zinc alloy. You shouldn't claim a knurled power button when it is not, in fact, knurled.
Maybe if you said "Looks just like" or "Similar appearance to" or such, I'd have kept my trap shut, but when you give specs like you do, there's always the chance some rube out there is going to say "Well, his replicas are three times the price of the other ones, and he says that he has machined G10, maybe it actually IS just like the real thing, I'll go with him."
I see your point, i will edit, but the power button looks knurled to me. The guy from Latvia on Ebay is selling these for over 100, why you guys think 75 is too much. How much do you expect to pay?

Knurled refers to a deep cut pattern that is rough to the touch, like a metal file. The buttons on the ones you're selling have a lightly etched crossed pattern. Not even close.
They sell from below $20 in bulk to under 30 individually from the chinese.
I bought a quite good replica from this guy off eBay :

This one cost me about 30 English pounds which is about 45 U.S. Dollars. This seller's cases look almost identical to yours so I think 75 dollars is a little steep.
who said i wanted $75 for that case you show?? wow how the rumors get started, i am selling that for 42.99 on Ebay.

I want a little more for the Black Ops version, which is not the one you bought.
Ok - my bad
Only just realized that your post above (which referred to 75 dollars) was for the Blacks Ops version.I think most people on here would. I don't see any advantage to paying more than 2x to get one in a week versus 3-4.
