As my sister's birthday is coming, i want to buy a iPhone 5 case for her as a gift, since she just bought a iPhone 5.

I have found a cute case on amazon, it sells $2.00 with 0.99 shipping freight.

http://www.amazon.com/Fashion-Silic...2368766&sr=8-9&keywords=iphone+5+case+handbag

on ebay, it is $5.99(free shipping)

While,I also find another link that sells $0.99 with free shipping

http://www.aurabuy.com/handbag-style-soft-rubber-back-case-cover-for-apple-iphone-5-msc-119328.html

it seems on sale, but there is no reviews, just worry about its quality.

I am wondering about which one is better to choose, or if anyone has better suggestion on buying a iphone case?

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure how old your sister is but I can't fathom using a case like that. Does she carry a purse? I think that case would be a bit annoying when on a call. Plus it would take up a lot of space in a purse. There are lots of cute cases out there... But IMHO... That case will be quite bulky and difficult to deal with.

They're all the same, or at least same enough. Literally, at 99 cents, why worry about quality?

Really? :(looks bulky, so do you any recommendations for cute cases?
 
If she's 15 give her twelvesouths SurfacePad. I think she'll like it actually.
 
They are all one and the same? There are definitely some better-lookingg cases IMO, plus, the little handle would be pretty darn annoying. From observing my little cousin's sense of style, I would recommend this, or this, or maybe even this.

the cases are so cute, thanks a lot for your recommendation.
 
lol thats funny. i recommend otterbox if you want maximum protection but if you want something cute you should try looking through some Elago cases.
