Has anyone used juststickit skins? Back protection w/ Smart Case?

Funny that I still have the e-mail notification set on this tread. So it looks like I have some friends back who are upgrading to the 3rd gen iPad like me:)

Yea, I think Clinton stopped his business. Like you guys, I am looking as well.
I found the same one from Spigen SGP for $22:

It looks like they carry the carbon fiber and leather design, but not the brushed aluminum ones.

Sweet...thanks! I tend to like the one like Clinton had and this SGP.....where it doesn't go into the corners like the iCarbon.

Although the SGP looks like they didn't take the time on the Apple cutout to have a separate cutout for the Apple and the leaf.....looks like it's one big hole. :(

Found another eBay seller from the same border town on the Canadian border (which happens to be where I'm from).

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ElementSkin...ccessories&hash=item2c63f45f14#ht_2557wt_1062

Might be the same seller, who used to also emphasize the 3M branding of their product.

I like the new design, too. Want white probably.

So I got my skin from that eBay seller today:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ElementSkin...ccessories&hash=item2c63f45f14#ht_2574wt_1413

Fits pretty nice. Only just a "hair" off around the camera (see attached shot). My main goal was to make sure the Apple was lined up and not showing the aluminum through....since that's more noticeable. Looking back I probably could have lined it up better around the camera if I tried.

I notice the old seller is listed back on eBay:
http://stores.ebay.com/juststickitskins?_rdc=1

And he's selling some from elementskins. In fact the envelope came from Surfaceskins.

Overall not a bad deal. I don't like the skins that go to the edge.....too much work to heat the corners for no need. I just need back protection to put the iPad down on a table, etc.

FYI, the original seller is showing a white version of the same Element Skin as the newer seller (newer doesn't have white).

I bought one of these when I first got my iPad 2 last year. I prefer sticker boy .net much more than these. In the sticker boy thread someone posted the discount code "bestskins" to get 5% off your order their.

Looks like they have some nice stuff. I still like the ones that don't cover the edges or corners....but will keep these guys in mind for the future.

Hey guys,

Clinton from Juststickit/ElementSkins here! Just wanted to reach out to say hi, clear up any confusion about where we are at. I don't want to discuss anything about our product here on MacRumors, as the board's admin doesn't like that too much, and kicked me off last year because of this thread.

That said, yes, I did take some time off after a VERY rough christmas. 2011 was quite a ride, and I needed a break to collect myself and look at other options for product delivery, marketing, etc.

JustStickIt skins is now ElementSkins, so yes, you'll see ElementSkins product on our old store. A move away from eBay is in progress, but is still a week or so out. If you have bought product from me in the past, you'll get an email shortly with more details and some killer discount codes.

I can;t tell you how nice it is to know that some of you remembered me, and liked the product I produce enough to search me out for your new iPad skins. I'm not a major manufacturer, just a guy working from a small shop, and I appreciate the business greatly.

Thanks again, and I hope everyone is enjoying their New iPads! It's an incredible device.

I remember that 3 times last year you told me you shipped the apple logo that was missing from my original order and that I got tired of it all and just purchased from someone else instead.

If you could PM me the details, I'd like to see where things went wrong. I didn't find anything in my email based on your MacRumors user name, and if you had PM'd me here last year, I don't have access to those PMs.

I'll be the first to admit that there have been stumbles along the way. During the peak of the iPad 2 launch, we were working 20 hours days just to keep up, it was crazy. I have no doubt that errors were made, it's just the law of averages. I do my best to make up for any issues, so let me know how I can make it up to you.

I already told you what went wrong: three times you said you sent an apple logo and I never received. When I questioned you the responses were "overrun with orders" and "personal issues". I gave up and now purchase skins from somewhere else.
