Fake Vapor Pro Reviews

I just got my silver/silver vapor pro and it was amazing. I couldn't see any flaw in my case or whatnot. Jacky Nie is a good seller IMO, so definitely order for this guy.

Last time i checked, Simon and Cindy Deng were apparently getting the cases from same manufacturer. I chatted with Simon re the white vapor pro, but Cindy Deng helped me answer the enquiry and clearly mentioned that she is Simon's friend.

So, if you order from either Simon or Cindy, I reckon the cases will be much the same.

I see that Cindy is in sales with Simon at this website>>> http://www.simonproduct.com/
 
Do all of them have a rubber insert to stop it from rubbing on the metal bezel?

Can anybody tell me a difference between the Pro cases on these two sites, besides one being cheaper?

The cheaper one I can configure 3 different colors.

Basically, both are the same high quality except that the case (in the second link you provided) has longer plastic at the bottom corner there. NB: You can always match 3 colors for the case.
 
I heard that the Longer one is the newer "model" for element and the shorter was the older...

or it could be the other way around.
 
Just Tried using my tracking number at USPS and it says that "this package isn't trackable from this site". I use it on the china post website and it says that the destination is Canada. Dont know if it comes through Canada to the US or what but generally when it posts destinations, it's the final destination. Emailed Cindy to verify where she shipped it so I guess we'll see.

I contacted Jacky Nie about this. One link is for a solid color case, the other is for mix and match color...the plastic will be the newer longer one for both...at least thats what I'm told. I'm looking to order a silver/red myself with the long plastic...

right now i'm waiting to hear back whether he can give me a white carbon fiber sticker for the back, instead of the velvet/suede sticker...i image a suede in white would get dirty really quick

Do you have a white iphone? I was wondering what the silver/silver would look like on the white iphone.

It caused reception issues.

with respect to the short tab resulting in reception issues, is this a well documented or known issue or simply your speculation?

element case still has the original short tab version posted on their website, but it indicates that it is sold out no longer available. http://www.elementcase.com/product-p/api4-1110-kbmf.htm

perhaps the change to the longer tab was an effort by element case to distinguish themselves from the influx of replicas in the marketplace, but this move appears ineffective as the new replicas have been able to duplicate the long tab design already.

I just ordered the white one from Cindy, so I will report back once I get it. Since the new batch is supposed to be a better quality I decided to go for it.
 
Mines shipping out as we speak. I'll post pics when i get it in.. hopefully within a week :)
 
I purchased a Black Ops case from Jacky Nie. I did the live-chat with him/her and paid via Paypal. Seemed very helpful and I am confident in the whole transaction. I guess only time will tell, probably going to be a week or two until I actually get the case. I'll be sure to post pics and a review once I do.
 
how does the paypal payment work with Jacky Nie? Is it thru the Aliexpress site? or something separate? thanks

The whole transaction is outside/separate from Aliexpress. I just got on the live chat and asked if Jacky accepted Paypal. They said yes and sent me their paypal address. I sent the payment and in the "notations" section I just said, "Payment for Element Vapor Black Ops iPhone4 Case." Along with my name and shipping information. I sent the payment then messaged Jacky on the live chat. Jacky confirmed that the payment was received and asked me my name, shipping info (again..), and phone # and I provided it. I asked Jacky if I would receive a tracking # and they said I would (not sure when though..)

Overall, pretty easy transaction...so far.
 
remember, Aliexpress will protect you if you use their billing and processing system. Otherwise, you are NOT protected if you decide to pay via paypal outside of their automated system. They are not able to hold the money until you received the product. You'll have to dispute any issues with paypal. And if seller provides tracking information, then the buyer is out of luck.

you should email Aliexpress customer service to confirm if paypal is okay.

Just got my Black Ops case in from Jackie Lin. It sure doesn't look like a knock off. Yes the fit is a bit loose but I just took 2 small strips of the suede earpiece and wrapped it over 2 corners of the metal band on the phone and it is no longer loose. Other than that I give it a 9/10 due to the quality of the replication.
