so my vapor didn't come today :(. fully expect it tomorrow though. Blue/silver :). cant wait!
 
For anyone trying to order from Cindy/Simon, it looks like they are representing the same company.

Here is their website. http://www.simonproduct.com/contact.htm

Might make it easier for everyone to contact them.

Son of a $&@@& I accidentally clicked on Cindy's phone number and it auto dialed. They better not try and charge me for that. Why is there no conformation dialog for making an international call?
 
it appears the velvet/suede backing material collect dirt easily. i requested a white one and i imagine it would be worse than black. any input? thx
 
I wanted to order half a dozen cases from s!mon, but he never returned any of my emails or messages.. oh well, his loss I suppose.

Installed mine 2 days ago, here is the result so far:

quite dirty....
 
Received my White

I wanted to share these with everyone since you've been helpful to me in picking these out. This one is for my wife, I'm waiting for my blue and silver from Jacky Nie.

I purchased this one from ioffer, he doesn't have another listed so no link. Thanks to the other guy who posted the pink luckylabs pictures for the inspiration. My wife wanted the green. Fit is a little loose like most have already stated. It doesn't rattle but you can move it up and down. The sleep button is a little tricky to press because the fit isn't snug. Also, the area where the plastic meets the metal is of poor craftsmanship. It looks like it will peel off.

Overall, for 30 bucks, can't complain and it looks nice.

Yeah, I know. I found another seller to go with, just kinda disappointing that the one seller who looked really legitimate (multiple employees, his own website, etc) would even email me back lol. I'm pretty happy with Jacky Lin though
 
I'm guessing the profit margin on selling these are just too small for him or his company. :) If I had a thousand dollars transaction, then I would be concentrating on that instead :) It's all good...again, his loss.

Ah, actually you have a problem that others have given directions on how to completely solve.

Have a look through the thread. They say to sand the plastic part little by little until the fit is nice. They posted pics and you can't even tell they fiddled with it. They said it completely solved the fitment issue.

I actually hope my white one looks as good as yours and if it has a defect, it is the one you have so I can fix it without adding anything to the case or ruining the look.

Looks like your white case has the ceramic paint.

I like the skin you have all around. I'm getting my wife and white iphone next month and plan on wrapping it with pink with a vapor pro silver/silver.

yeah, Jacky told me that they make +/- $5 a case. So not bad, if you can push enough product.
 
Got my Silver/Silver VaporPro today from Jacky Nie. It's very nice, fit is nice and tight. My question/concern is, the insert for the power button rattles, is that normal?

BTW, did not have to go to the PO to pick up, was able to sign the release and the PO re-delivered. Free shipping was 11 days door to door.

My Bad, should have read more. i'll put one of the foam pieces on the power button insert and hope that stops the rattle
 
Is this normal?

I ordered it on October 24th. Our famous Simon shipped it on the Oct 26th I guess. And there has been no update since Oct 27th.

I can't tell if it's sitting in the boat to the USA or sitting in a custom office...

I ordered another one from Jackie Lin 1 day before Simon and Jackie Lin's package is in New York and then New Jersey already. Jackie Lin sent it via Hong Kong post while Simon sent it via China post.

just received my white vapor pros from both jacky nie and simon. they're pretty much EXACTLY the same and both fit like crap. i can essentially almost push the phone out of the bumper. i've added some extra felt but it creates huge gaps and is still loose. VERY disappointed :(
 
yikes...these white ones are very disappointing news so far.

i have seen those when I was looking for the white one....but never pursued in them.

Check this out...they can even personalized it too? :)
if you want add logo ,example : name or friend name ,and other news we can according to your request make it ,but you need add usd1 /pcs.

anyone seen these?

pretty cool. This seller also has different colour variations where the colours are swapped to the other side (sim slot side), instead of the side with the mute/volume buttons.

I have emailed the seller for more pictures.
 
Once mine was processed at Shenzhen, it did not update for 7-8 days and then finally it was in NY. I would think yours will update pretty soon.
