So, my favorite purveyor of cheap, custom goods in Hong Kong (Artscow) recently posted a sale on custom phone cases.
I noticed a SMALL bit of variance between Galaxy Nexus handset versions, but not much; I imagine the case will fit. I'm certainly hoping I don't have to wait for it, then ship it back to Hong Kong. If anyone has experience with this company and their cases, I'd love to hear it.
Hoping the case looks as good as this when it arrives.

It looks like SGP has updated their site with Vibrant cases. Right now they only have the Silke silicone cases on the site and they are all listed as out of stock. At least we know they are coming.
After the company told me they didn't sell cases for the phone in the US, this is a pleasant surprise. I hope this means they will bring the TPU and Ultra Slider over as well.

Those cases looks nice but they are also pricey and most of all they are all "Temporarily Out of Stock" :b

Yeah, looks like all of the Vibrant products are placeholders like on the Samsung website.
The pricing is higher than the eBay stuff, but looks to be cheaper than that French site that's selling the SGP stuff for the i9000 that someone else posted about.
it is a bit expensive but it includes a screen protector.
I heard good things about the screen protectors.
I want the slider
These cases are very sleek and the colors are fairly vibrant (what a perfect match ). $20.00 + shipping isn't too bad for those cases, since they do come with the Screen protector as well. I might get one of those when it becomes available.
I just sent them an email inquiring about the availability of their slider cases so hopefully we'll see some of those as well

I'd be interested in hearing how they respond. When I emailed them they said they weren't going to sell the Galaxy S cases in the US....one week later they show up on the site.
If they don't plan to sell the sliders directly, there's always that French company selling them for a few bucks more - we'll see if any of the people who ordered one actually get them.

Hopefully they'll get them out soon. I'd rather buy direct from them, just for quality assurance. If they get them out soon, I'll buy two of em....
Nicest cases I've seen so far... wish i hadn't ordered a tmo silicon case
Yea, those cases do look nice. I just oredered a Vibrant off ebay. I was hoping to get this case! Can anyone link me to the French site? Cause it's been out of stock for sometime now on the SGP site.
I finally found one I liked here:

I only just ordered it but I have had a look at a case in the same design for an I-phone 4S - nicely made.
I ordered one of these for my Nexus One, it was expensive but extremely well made and still looks great after over a year of daily use. To bad the GNex is to big to fit, i will most likely order one for the Gnex because I cannot find anything cheaper that I like.
I love how you get to design what you want. It is a bit pricey at over £33. Not sure if that included shipping either...

I doubt it included shipping - you get that later when you say where you want it shipped too and how.
For once being in Oz paid off - NZ is almost next door, flat rate shipping for $5.
I'll post an update and some photos when I get it.
Cases look nice, can't wait to order one this weekend. Anybody have any pictures of there case yet?
This is at newegg. Not sure how long it will last, they're offering it for $21.99, in case anyone is interested.

Although seems Accessory Geeks is offering the dark wood model for $19.99.

and searching further, it seems even Amazon has a variant of this wood case

All of them seem to be sold by some company named KarenDeals
I have NO experience with these cases, just in that I thought they looked cool
decisions, decisions.
Okay, I found two silicone cases I really want, I really love both designs but I can't decide which one to get!!
These two are the CHEAPEST I've found that are selling the US, so I've already gotten the best price for the best area (other places you have to wait WEEKS because they're shipping from hong kong )
So which one would you guys get?!
I'm so a gamer, so I love the White Game Boy idea here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/140889990618?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p39&afsrc=1
And then I also LOVE these designs on these ones, there's like 10 different kinds too!! Which one of these would you guys get?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/140881145191?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1586.l2649
If worse comes to worse, I'll buy one of each (but please help with deciding which of the 10 I should get at least!! lol)
Silicone I found is the best type of case so I'm really excited to find them like this, all I found when searching for these kinds of styles were hard cases and I found those actually do MORE damage then going without a case at all! Talk about ridiculous!!
So if you were going to get one? Which one would you get?
Also BTW: Please don't try and talk me into buying any other cases, my heart is set on one of these, biggest reasons is the seller is the US, it's free shipping, and again, cheapest price for a Brand New case, love it all
Thanks everyone!!
If I had to choose, I'd pick the gameboy case over the others. Reason why is because the other cases are too feminine for me

I'm pretty sure I just typed "gameboy case for samsung galaxy s3" and found that gameboy case on amazon for $1.43 + $0.57 shipping. It also says ships from US. As far as cases, I don't really care for either design but I would go with the gameboy over the 2nd.
Spigen is my choice but to save $30 I got an otter box from Amazon

how do you get out of bed in the mornings?
ITS A PHONE CASE.
Talk about ridiculous posts. You have a $300+ phone and are worried about a $5 case for it.
Seriously.
Ebay has a 10 pack of hard back cases for Nexus 5 for $18.29. 10 different colours.
Ships free from Hong Kong.
Don't know how good these will be! Just putting it out there for people who may be interested...
If anyone buys them, please provide your views/reviews.
...Or, just get one decent one for a fraction of that price.
Why would you want 10 of the same case anyway? Especially when each one will be of low quality.
