I would have to agree Acase is of very poor quality. At Least from my experience with them. I also have a friend who bought one for his Xoom and it was crap

So, I will not try Acase, how about the others?

I don't believe either of you spammers. You're both repping Case2Case on the forums and it's just not right scamming the members here with your lies. You seem to keep pushing cases that are found on that site constantly while saying that Acase is crap which it isn't with all due respect.

I've had enough of new users coming here pretending to me customers while lying and trying to convince people to buy your products instead. While some may no see it, others do. I suggest you find a different way to promote your products. It's very easy really..

What the heck are you talking about??? what am i selling??? i said what i said because it was true, Now i realize and from what i gather from you doing reviews that you do have some interest in products since you get them free and thats cool but im a customer and i PAY for my goods so i can tell the truth, You are the one pushing acase not me. You i see havent been on here a long time but your opinion is not always what others may have and the products you like may not be liked by others. Now please leave me out of what ever you are going thru, You are the one selling, everytime you get a free item from a vendor and push it you are selling your payment isnt in cash or maybe it is but thats your business you are selling. Everyone in here is selling something or they wouldnt need to ask what to wear, and how to wear it.

Thanks, 3goldens, I'm always come here to find good case, I deeply appreciate your good advice.

SchneiderMan, how can you say other people like that? If I'm the rep from case2case, then, what are you doing for Acase? We are just talking about what we like, no need to attack other people, we all need a peace world, aren't you?

I too dont understand if it wasnt for people posting their cases on here it would defeat the purpose, I didnt post 1 product or endorse a product heck i seen acase and since i had real life experiance with it posted my 2 cents.
 
Hi guys, I have found another site www.aliexpress.com, selling everything as what Case2Case are selling too. Pricing is cheaper and include free shipping. :)
Nothing against Case2Case, just to give members more choices to choose.
 
think the case2case.net ones are like the ones on Amazon that Acases sells, and I did not like.

I'm going to take a chance on this one. I know its a knock off, but he has a refund policy and hey what the hell right?

He sent me some photos, which I will post with link to his ebay auction:

Is it me or does it look like that case is catching Waaay more dust the the original apple case? And anything that catches more dirt than the apple case is horrible.

I haven't noticed any more particulates than the original, but I wipe it down every so often, and use armor all to clean it. I like it now that I fixed the hibernation issue.
 
I also bought one from them yesterday, but I visited their site just now, the price is $27.99, it seems that they are on promotion, how regret I am, I should buy it today.:(
 
The attachment is what I got from them, I bought two.

Thanks for posting the pictures. How does the quality of the case look - like around the edges - are they well "sealed", meaning no pleating, or areas that look like they would eventually open?
Also, how about attracting lint/dust - that was the biggest problem with Apple's first gen case - it was an absolute dirt magnet.
What color cases did you get?
Sorry for all the questions!:)

I got one of these and the quality is mediocre at best. After about a week I started to see minuscule thread coming from the front cover edges. I simply got a bic lighter and carefully singed them off. Not a disaster but not the best quality needless to say.

As far as dirt, every bit as bad as Apple original, but what would you expect with this kind of material? Just wipe it off, if you don't want that, you'll have to look into faux or real leather I would think.

Yep, I suspect it is some type of glue/sealant that they use around the edges to seal them. Thanks for letting us know.:)
 
This is what I got today. Seems good.

Yea they look good when they arrive and then start to deteriorate!

Probably in the long run its better to just suck it up and get a better quality case, these are not made to last, that's for sure!

Have you bought one from them? And what do you think is better quality, where do you think could buy a better quality one. Thanks.

Yep, it the same case. Its a fine case for what it is, a cheap knock off of the original Apple case. As many detracters as that case has, all i can say the quality was good, mine is what over a year old still looks pretty damm good for all i threw at it, sure it gets dirty, better the case than my ipad right?

It will be fine for you in the short run, but if your using it every day, your going start to see the wear probably in the seams.

Its the old saying, you get what you pay for, no ones looking to make quality iPad 2 cases unless the consumer is willing to pay for them, and many just are not. They would rather pay for a cheap case and then complain about the quality.

As an aside, I walked out of an Apple store today and planted right in front of the store was a vendor selling everything from ipod and iPhone cases to iPad cases, and you know what, the leather quality of these cases surpass the ones made in china that everyone pays 40-45 bucks for and complain they smell like rotting flesh!

This vendor was charging 20 bucks, selling them like no tomorrow, and, and, get this, they actually smelled like cow hide! Does anyone remember the smell of real cowhide? I do for sure!

I over heard him ordering 10 new black ones, his cost, 10 bucks, and that should tell us a thing or two!
 
Ipad 2 Case with Smart Cover Tech - Looks and fits like Original Apple ipad 1 Case

Hey Alphadog111: Who makes the case you posted? It looks perfect! Where can I get one? Please respond. Thanks, Robert7200
 
No, 3goldens, do not attack anybody or any site, we just share our buying experience here, if you never bought one from them, don't give any bad review, that's my opinion.

As I said, I bought this one, if your talking about the Apple knock off.

So listen, I think your misunderstanding my post.

I'm not attacking anyone, person or site. Just the products I have experience with. Don't want my opinion, don't read my posts, but I have had about 15 cases now.

Just giving my experience as I see it bro.

The case in question is a knock off from the Apple original, and a bad one, I have had it for awhile and its falling apart.

Want the truth or do you want me to tell you its a great case and will last a lifetime?

This one looks great though!

The tucano might look nice and it has the metal on the back to lock the smart case to the back but... It looks bulky like the SGP griff. The Melkco leather snap case with integrated smart cover that I had was much slimmer than the SGP griff that I had comparing the backs. Melkco has a back only version but they don't have the metal plate on the back.

It would be interesting to see someone get the tucano to see how bulky it is.
 
I'd prefer smart cover, compared to other ipad 2 cases, while for other cases, I would choose a popular and special one, such as Paul Frank ipad 2 case, angry birds ipad 2 case or the KungFu Panda hard ipad 2 case recently released is also very nice!
