I asked for a 10% discount due to the delay and that came through quickly. However, their 10/4/22 email suggested shipping by 10/21/22 which is not going to happen.
When I sent yet another email this morning, the auto-reply email was adding now an additional 3 weeks to shipping. I will be gone on three weeks of driving and need a proper case for that trip since there are so many ways to misplace AirPods when on the open road in a variety of hotels.
In the meantime, their online add is still misleading as it implies that have cases on hand.

Last night they cancelled my order and refunded the charges.
This was my ideal case so I appear to be out of luck at this point.

Although I already filed a dispute with my bank, I got a very apologetic e-mail from Bluebonnet last night, informing me that my order has been canceled and a refund was issued. I’ll wait for the refund to hit my credit card before I cancel the dispute.

The e-mail did mention that they will be fully stocked in 10 days. Oh well - a trustworthy vendor wouldn’t have an out of stock item listed as available for sale in the first place.

I finally got an overnight response as well. They stated that it'll take 2-3 weeks for my order to ship and offered me a free black AirPods Pro case in the interim. The e-mail also mentioned that my order is currently "on the way to the studio." I decided to accept their offer. With that being said, they should have made it clear on their website that the item is not actually in stock and is, in fact, a preorder. It's a bit shady, if you ask me.

Did yours ever arrive? I ordered their leather iPhone case a while back and it’s very late from the estimate

EDIT Apparently not

Mismanagement seems to be a common theme with a lot of smaller companies nowadays. I have a custom built guitar on order since June 2021. I was quoted a completion timeframe of 9 months. It’s been 16 months and the guitar is nowhere near completion.

I ordered the blue daze!

But 4 weeks is a long time to wait.

The AirPods Pro 2 is the same size as the first gen with some additional cut outs. Not sure why it’s taking them so long to release it.

These days its worker shortages and supply disruptions. I'm sure they want to get you your guitar asap. I would if I was a vendor.

I wish that was the case. This is a comparatively small boutique company that simply took on more orders than they could handle.

Found a cute Kate spade case for my new AirPods Pro 2! I’m a first time user of AirPods and they are wonderful. Should have bought them sooner!

Perhaps the angle is wrong for me, but that looks like cutouts for APP1 rather than APP2, no?

Does any case work well with MagSafe and Apple Watch charger ?

ive come to ask the same question.

I charge my AirPo Pro 2 case with my Apple Watch charger most of the time and I’m looking for a good case that will work with it.

Can anyone make any recommendations?

That’s useful to know, thanks!

I noticed that it’s listed on their Amazon page as compatible with charging with Apple Watch charger whereas most other cases say they aren’t. Is there something special about the design of this Spigen one that makes it work with AW puck?

I’d be grateful to know: Does anyone know of any others that definitely work with the AW charger?

I did get my brown bluebonnet case on Thursday - I had been using a clear one so I am not sure which one I will go with. I do like those iPod jackets from Bellroy but they are still in preorder status and my priority goes to available.
