in this guy's listing, you can see some imperfections on the front side, near the volume buttons...hope what he ships will be better than that...

I had messages her about that and she said "Don't worry. No scratches."

Should be ok.
 
I also asked him about the scratches, he assured me that my product was perfect. Mine shipped yesterday, so hopefully it will be here soon. If it looks good I will likely purchase more to play around with colors.
 
about the sears case...

Last time I checked, Sears should be authentic?

Although I ordered a knock- off from ali express (probably the same thing to be honest) I would not recommend buying that case from sears, if you look closely, it is actually a third party selling through sears who calls himself "global innovations". A quick look through some of his products, including a PS3 jailbreak tool, gives me the conclusion this case is less than legit.

I took a second look and realized with 20 dollar shipping even if it is authentic(which it isn't), it isn't that great of a deal. I'm really interested in ordering one from ali express but am worried there will be issues with size, fitment, etc. I guess I just have to wait for someone to review theirs.
 
I hope this metal bumper doesn't screw up reception. I just received a knock-off Draco/Cleave case...wifi reception is around 10mbps/sec with bumper off, and around 2mbps/sec or less with the bumper on...i immediately requested a return/refund. can't wait to hear from you folks regarding receptions with the vapor knock off

I was about to place an order for a knock off Draco Cleave, but cancelled at the last minute because reviews on the real Draco Cleave were noting bad reception. I ordered the vapor pro knock off but it's probably so close to the real thing that I won't be able to tell a difference (I hope).

Hey everyone,

Just got in my knockoff case that i ordered from aliexpress. The box that it came in look authentic. Included was the travel case, tool, backing, and a certifacte of authenticity LOL..



Here is the travel case..



Here is some angles of the case..sorry for the bad pics, I was too lazy to take better ones with the new phone. I also do not have a pic of the case on the phone because my camera is broken..







Whoever ordered this case, I think you will be very happy with it for the price that we paid. There are no scratches on the bumper. And the fitment is great. Forget paying retail for this case and get the ones from CHina..buy yourself a bunch of apps or something else with the $100 instead :)

What seller did you order from and would you post the link if you still have it? Thanks :)
 
Hey guys,

I bought it from this seller http://www.aliexpress.com/product-f...Aluminum-Bumper-for-iphone-4-wholesalers.html .

I noticed that a lot of the sellers on here are all connected to this one company.. http://www.yifanfounder.cn/

Email correspondence is really quick with these people. Try going to the main website to have a live chat with associates for any questions. The shipping experience was really quick. As soon as i made a payment, it was shipped the same day.

For the question about the shipping cost, i opted for the DHL service. I ordered last friday and it arrived today the 14th. I think they charged me 20 bucks for it, but i ordered 3 cases so the cost of the shipping was not too bad for me. By the way, I live in Seattle(west coast) so if you live on the east coast it might take a couple extra days..

Thanks for the pictures! Did you notice any negative effects on reception, gps, 3G?

Thanks for the pictures and the link, but when I click on the link I don't see an option to select a white bumper.

There is a comments section where you can specify color combinations you want. Before the seller ships the product out, they make sure the order is correct.

Hey andy,

I have no used the GPS feature yet, but I have not lost a single bar on the AT&T network. Im using this on the 4S so I do not know if the new antenna has an effect on reception compared to the iphone 4

Great! So I'm in the process of ordering now so I selected black and in the area that says "message to supplier," just explicitly list I want the white version? If you don't mind, I added a link to the jpg you posted above to show them exactly which one I want.

Thanks,

D

Yeah in the comments section just say you want the all white version. After you pay and they receive it, they will send you a waybill to confirm your address and order. When you talk to them during the email conversation, make sure they know that you want the white just to be safe. You can also go to their main website and do a live chat with them, just reference your order number. :D

Awesome. I'm just a little hesitant to drop $50 on a case unless I know it will a) look really nice (which is sounds like it will... and b) not effect reception/gps...

Figure it will have no problem fitting my white iPhone 4S!

Thanks again for all the help BK!

EDIT: From the look of the box in the corner of one of the pics, you have a white one too! Post a pic of it on that beauty! Haha.
