Yeah... Unless you're going with their classic open-bottom, I find Bullstrap's case quality to be rather unpredictable.
Got a tip for us?

For me I look at leather cases, although still protective, more of a luxury than strictly protective. If I want a truly protective case to throw around sort of speak, I’d go for an OtterBox or even Caudabe.
Nomad modern case seems to provide decent protection, but it adds some bulk and only available in limited colors (black, shades of brown). The nomad website claims 8ft drop protection. I am finding it a nice compromise for the 16 pro.
I did this last Black Friday and wound up getting a case for like 35 bucks.
Really dislike the tpu bumper on the nomad leather cases. I’d want either a full tpu case or a full leather. Not a fan of the leather back only.
I believe Nomad has 4 different styles of leather cases; the "traditional" has the full leather wrap around (no TPU bumper). They look pretty nice to me!
It does to me, but that’s a somewhat subjective question. If you search my username in this thread, I’ve posted a couple pics. One is my black Horween leather case, the other is the tan leather case, that I stripped and dyed blue. I think others have posted pics of both the nomad modern and traditional cases in this thread.
I am still waiting for a proper respond/answer. This is what they replied :
that’s all, no solution,no help, nothing! They do not even reply to my second question, asking them when the problem will be solved.
nothing, nada. Never experienced this much incompetence from customer support.
I had this issue with a product I ordered once. I called my credit card company and reported it and they instantly reversed the charges for me. Maybe try that? Then move on to another brand?
That’s why I won’t ask for a replacement for the leather peeling on mine. I’ll just bite the bullet and hope no further issues arise. I’ll be extra careful in handling it when taking it off/on.
There’s a RL review video where the thin part by the camera control cutout broke off. That’s what I’m afraid of with these leather cutouts cases.
Have you paid money with no case? Or they simply won’t ship to the Netherlands so you can’t order a case from them? Those are two very different things.
If that’s the case, let’s give their customer service a break. They might not have all the answers right away, as they’re likely investigating the matter. Regardless, no money was exchanged, so they’re not the terrible company that’s being suggested. In fact, I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with their customer service.
i would love to buy a case but its not possible due to a technical error on the website.
this is the init response as posted before
the point is, they won’t help me, do not offer any kind of solution. Not even something like let us give notification when the issue on our website is fixed. It’s just a very poor way of communication with potential customer. But I guess they have to much buyers, because they’re not bothered by losing some.
I mean it’s unfortunate they won’t ship to your country but I’m sure there’s other options. If a company won’t ship to my country, I’m not gonna beg or force a reason out of them as to why they won’t ship. Just accept it and move on.
I understand that it’s inconvenient that they won’t ship to your country, but they’ve not broken their promise and not delivered. Clearly, they don’t have a solution for you, and I’m not sure what you’d like them to offer. They’ve explained that they can’t ship to the Netherlands due to a technical error. What additional information do you expect them to provide? It seems evident that this isn’t an option and won’t be for the foreseeable future. In my opinion, this would be a clear indication to move on.
That’s not what they wrote, this is what they literally send:
“due to a system error, we are currently unable to ship orders to the Netherlands”.
To me this appears to be a temporary problem, (due to system error). It does not sound like it’s impossible. Temporary or forever? If they told me that it’s impossible it would be simple. I would have moved on a week ago.
Temporary… even better. Be patient and wait until their system can accommodate shipping to your country. If you don’t want to wait, then opt for other options.
