I’ve been on the chat with Amazon US three times already (very bad experience with representatives not understanding what the issue is, the chat being constantly reassigned to another representative and my having to explain again…).
They only offer a refund on condition I return the product. They’ve initiated a return. That is not an option right now however as I’m flying back home from the UK tomorrow morning and dealing with a return is the least of my worries. I’ll deal with it when I’m back from the trip.
Anyway, I’ve sent an email to both Amazon and Tineeowl themselves with these pictures.
Could you or others who own the the Tineeowl check for similar blemishes? As you can see from my pictures, they are only noticeable under sunlight. In the third picture you can’t see it’s there.

dude you bought an inexpensive case and expect perfection. just enjoy it for what it is. there’s a reason it’s priced so low.
Mine is fine, no indents. I’ve actually had more problems like this with the Sheath and the Phone Rebel Air.
If this type of defect bothers you, I would suggest sticking with cases with a rigid backplate. Pure TPU cases are almost always going to show these kinds of indents, if not out of the box, most certainly over time.
Nope, mine has none of these blemishes or marks whatsoever.
Get out.
it doesn’t matter whether it was £20 or £200.
That case should not look like that when brand new out of the box.
A brand new product should be in perfect condition. Durability and if it stands the test of time due to its price point is another matter.
Really really poor post and opinion, that.
No issues here. Both Dusty Lilac and Almost Black cases are perfect.

I’m using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T and I like it, but I ordered this one and hopefully it last even more compact.
Been rolling in the black sheath all week with Ember buttons, and I’m not mad at it. The only con I see with this case is weak MagSafe, when I have the phone attached in my car and hit a slight bump, the phone flies off of a MagSafe mount, not good.
If it weren't for my celestial blue/ember button sheath...okay, or my black owl....THAT would be my case!
For the price it's well worth having one in the rotation.
Funny you say that. I have had my Paragon since last Thursday, and while I wouldn’t say that MagSafe is bad, it definitely seems a little weaker than my past Caudabe cases.
I just got the Spigen Liquid Air T today, and it immediately feels excellent. I had one of these years ago before MagSafe. I forgot how it really is almost the perfect size to not make the phone much bigger. I remember when the Sheath was close to the same footprint. I actually think slit buttons can be better than separate/floating buttons sometimes. The Sleep/Wake button is a bit clickier on the Liquid Air T versus the Paragon.
All in all, I think the Paragon and Liquid Air T could be might top 2 cases so far.
So here’s the question- phone rebel gen 6 ultra or Caudabe sheath for a week long trip to Disney world?
So much for MagBak. I was singing their praises until this week when I noticed this:
I would say Sheath as the fingerprints on the Gen 6 drive me insane
What happened to Phone Rebel with their orange colored CC buttons? Guess they are dead in the water.
My only concern is god forbid an amusement park drop.I would say Sheath as the fingerprints on the Gen 6 drive me insane
