Portenzo iPad 2 Case: Now a Smart Cover

Composition II

Here are a couple pics of my Composition II I received today. Sorry, if they come out huge or blurry I didn't know how to resize.

Yes, the only 23.5 with a interior other than wheat?

That's me, with the 15-odd pictures. lol.

I see you also got magna+Elastic, did you opt for a camera hole? I did but I kinda regret it, as its not as clean cut as I though it'd be...

Actually, if there is one thing you will not eBay its Portenzo case. At the moment there is one Portenzo case available in eBay (used case for iPad original).

When ordering Portenzo its just best to think the delivery will take a very long time but what you get in the end is something very beautiful. In all honesty if you end up ordering a custom case with personal embossings etc. then opening the package is more exciting then getting the iPad itself. These things are one of few items vast majority of people can get that are truly custom and handmade and doesn't cost a fortune (literally). So waiting for it is like waiting for any custom handmade product. Its part of the process.

What a silly post. Many many many Portenzos have been sold on eBay. You are naive.

Can I clarify one thing? What is the black material in the case? Is it fabric or paper?

Sorry, I don't know the name of the material that's used but I've seen it used on other books. Its not paper though. It's has a textured feel to it.

*Edit I guess it's some sort of canvas material

Paypal

Actually I think this is a lesson for Paypals users all over the world. Don't trust Paypal, it is after all a third party company.

As a client, I will be p?ssed if somebody orders a case after me with paypal and gets priority cause they used that method of payment, I was first in queue after all!

As someone who paid via Paypal... I agree with you. Orders should be filled in the order they were placed. The only exception I can think of is (as happened with Morocco material) if one optional component is on back order.. that should not hold up other others that are not affected.

At least that's my opinion.

Here is the response I got for the early charge of my credit card. I ordered on 3/17 order#5225

-----
Credit card companies only give us a certain window of time to charge cards (29 days, I think). If we don't act (and that was a supply issue...), we have to contact individuals asking for authorization or an update of credit card information. That seemed like a real hassle for customers. The cards that we have charged in advance (not how we normally operate) are on our priority list. You should see a shipping notice soon.

Thanks!

Such is the fickle likes of an :apple:user, I blame Stevie Jobs for getting us so accustomed to having so many options for customization;)

Meeeh I blew my cash for a second Portenzo on a set of Jaybird wireless bluetooth headphones, a Ghost armor for the back of the BLK (AT&T)GSM iPad2, a Anti-glare PowerSP for the front, and a Boxwave stylus, a steal at 15 bucks off their official site.

Went on a spending spree lolz.

Sold my white Verizon 64, ordered AT&T 64 in black, all the goodies I just listed I ordered today.


All this plus my white 23.5 from Portenzo, and my new iPad2 shall be tricked out <3

And I thought I was special! :eek:

I was a teacher for a public school in NYC, I can manage my patience... But lying! I've never!!! Lol

Well, I got an email by the team that said that they will fulfilled the morocco orders if they got the shipment of the material on time. Then the next day somebody else said they got another email saying the company received the material and they are now in production. I can wait and see what happens on the deadline they set for themselves, the 25th of this month.

If I get a notification by then I'll be singing In Portenzo I Trust!
If I don't get anything by then I'll be screaming Portenzo Is Cheating Me!
 
I would like to see a case with the stylus frame and without it side by side to compare the difference in width?I'm still on the fence...

You are taking it way too literally... :p Portenzo cases are like art work custom made for you (if you opted for custom that is) so selling it is not like selling some random piece of electronic product.

IMG 74, the Comp II has got to be the sweetest thing I've seen in great while for iPad 2. Please post pics of the camera hole?

It appears to be really sturdy ...
 
Are you guys getting shipping notices? I was told min would go out Friday or Monday. Both have passed with no email.

Good question. I'd also like to know if the processing on my account page changes. If it doesn't I won't bother checking anymore.

You should get an email with a tracking number. Some people have received their case without getting a shipping email.

They change the status to shipped with a tracking number when it does ship.
