True - they are on the pricey side! For me, they do the front cover exactly how I want on the Top Flip and maintain a classy, non bulky look while giving your phone some meat to grab on to. So it's almost like there isn't another option for me. That and they last forever while still looking great! I mean, in and out of a denim pocket numerous times a day for over 700 days and it looks better than day 1. I know a budget is a budget, but if you can afford it, it's a 1 time purchase that will last you the life of the phone (and definitely longer).
Hey thanks a lot, that definitely helps with making the decision!
