I picked this case up a couple weeks ago. Well, I bought it a couple of weeks ago; it just arrived today. Supply issues. It cost only $8.99 shipped. It's gone up a buck since.
The pictures on eBay give the impression that it's a hard shell case. It's not. It's a soft rubber-like product with good grip. I was attracted to it because it's clear and shows the phone off nicely, and because it has little doors over the ports on the bottom of the phone to keep dust and pocket lint out.
If you look closely at this picture, you can see tiny scratches or marks in the plastic above the ports:
I left the port covers open in most of the shots, perhaps giving the impression that they don't stay closed. They do, they plug right into the ports snuggly.
Impressions: A case with a nice safe feel, enough lip to easily protect the screen when the phone is laid screen-down, and covers over the ports on the bottom of the phone to keep them clean. The buttons have a nice feel to them, great click. Quite affordable.
On the downside, I get the feeling that it will scratch easily. Of course, this might only be visible in macro photographs.
I also a little concerned that with time the port covers will tear off. Not that big of a deal.
Also available for the iPhone 6.

Edit to add: I also received a screen cover with the case that I didn't use as I find them more of a hassle than they're worth.
