Tried to return the one I received from eBay. The person gave me a return but sent the package back. I ordered the carbon fiber version from UAG. Looking at them side by side reveals the eBay one is definitely fake. VERY small difference but enough that I can tell.
 
Let us know how it goes

Here are the pics. The case is legit real. Side by side pics with my fake. BTW, also included a pic of the saggy bottom. The real case suffers from it while the fake does not (or at least not nearly on the same level).

Looks good to me. What makes it look cheaply made to you? My fake actually seems better than my real case.
