My black bumper condition is exactly the same. I only took it on and off for couple times. I guess some people are lucky, they got the better quality ones from this seller.
Got a tip for us?

Received my black one from Amazon (UK) today, delighted, got the black one, contrasts rather nicely with my white 4S, thanks once again to the OP for making me aware of this bumper.
For what it's worth
Got my "official" case from caze today. Has been sitting in the post office for two days. Fast shipping to get here.
First impression....
What i got before from ebay is definitely a fake. The material feels very different, albeit, that I got a different color. Even the clip feels different to me. There are nothing sticking out, as someone said before (as if where the case coming off a plastic mold and has a little piece of unevenness.)
Came also with official screen protector with caze's own sticker on the tab, not some third party case protector. Also comes with that silly pocket stand, which is probably useless, but cool to look at. Lastly, where the upc suppose to be on the packaging box, there's actually a sticker there.
Draw your own conclusion. Reporting merely what I observed. I really like the design, if there's new ones coming out, I will be buying from them directly rather than ebay from this point on.

Just to be clear, the case I received from Caze is perfect, not one imperfection. The red tab has a white spot on the bottom, which looks like a tiny piece of excess plastic.
If anyone is concerned whether an eBay site is authentic, maybe email Caze and see what they say.
my guess is that she purchased the one's that did not or were close to failing QA for Caze, hence them being cheaper. I have emailed Lina about the quality issue and she has yet to respond.

Got mine in today, ordered from the ebay seller on the first page. I got one white and one silver and I have to say Im pretty disappointed. Both of them have many flaws, for example one of them has a piece of hair that was painted over down the side, the other has a bunch of little indents. If they are real, the quality is terrible, but either way I regret paying $13 a piece for them.
I have to say these must not be authentic. The finish on mine, which I ordered from Caze, is so nice. It is a nicer finish then the Graft Leverage case that cost me 3 times as much.
lol I have the official" packaging, but on the bottom there is a place that says barcode with an X through it and I did not get the official screen protectors, cleaning cloth, nor the wallet stand even the case says they are included. IOW these are good fakes at best. Lesson learned
PSA: DO NOT ORDER FROM THE EBAY LINK POSTED ON THE FIRST PAGE
Yeah definitely fake, gonna see if I can get a refund. If not then make a PayPal claim.
Sorry you guys have gotten crappy cases from the eBay link. Was just trying to post a sweet looking bumper that wasn't rubbery like the apple bumper.
I got 4 cases from her and were all good condition with all oem protectors and stand.
The ones from the link are real but like someone said, she probably got a bulk order and selling them as open items.
Still waiting for Caze to send me out the new metallic thinedge cases. Will post back when I get them.
There only $20 on caze site so just order through them. They have great customer service and ship fast.
Sorry again guys n gals

I ordered one from her for my assistant and I received the screen protectors, cleaning cloth, and wallet stand. She's had it on her phone for over a week now and it still looks as good as new. No imperfections...still looks and feels great.
It's definitely unfortunate everyone isn't receiving the same thing.
lol lets not be delusional here..this is mainly for grip and style..it may protect it from a low drop, but this is no otterbox defender...nor is it chunky like one

I ordered an even cheaper one that shipped from China (seller was mongtx) for $9 and I was able to get my money back. There's only one official ebay seller, so getting your money back should be a clear cut case. Just mention in your seller communication that Caze said their listing was fake. If the seller has half a brain, he'll refund your money promptly.
Order the blue from iphonecaze 11/10,
received 11/17 via USPS register mail,
paid $22.90 including shipping total
The blue is more of aquamarine, not the same color as the other metallic blue i seem from previous post..... a little disappointed, but, it feels really nice holding in my hand,
and yes, the screen protector I had did bubble up around the edge, included screen protector from caze fits it perfectly, the Cushi soft foam pad fits perfect in the back as well ..
I am happy with it so far, think I might wanna try the matte Black or Clear-smoke
