UPDATE 2/25 1:10 PM: STILL NEED A CASE?
FYI - IT2Steve is an xda member - see thread. He is becoming the USA's major supplier of all gtab accessories. Rumor has it he has cases left (including prototypes and leather ones)
You have to create an account and sign up for his mailer list on his new store: www.electroniccrap.com/store
UPDATE 2/24 1:18 AM
Thank you everyone for working with me on this sale! I now have receipts out to everyone who made it for the first 28 cases.
I have one left - the slightly damaged one for $18. It is truly only slight damage. I have one person in line for it, and no others yet.
I am very sorry for those who did not make it in time. I really wish I had a lot of money and could have bought a few hundred of these...
ENJOY YOUR NEW CASES!!
_____________________________________________________
I have 30 of the gpad/zpad covers coming from China. They have shipped today.
Please post your interest - I will take official requests once I have them in hand - first come, first serve.
This is the case referred to as M1 by IT2Steve --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943981
Here is the link sent by another xda member as well who did the investigation and ordered one first --> http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=6517573&id=600276957
I am hoping to have them in 5-7 days.
_____________
UPDATE:
Okay!! It's official. 30 cases all sitting here (minus 1 that is mine)! My whole basement smells of pleather and I love it!
I have personally looked at all 30. All of them are essentially identical. I have only noticed that some fit a little tighter then others, so you have to work it in a little. All the holes line up correctly. Not every one of them has the camera "PERFECTLY" in the hole, but I have found none of them that cover it or interfere. I picked a tighter one that caused the top strap to pucker up, but it's already settled down.
Final Price = $26 (includes the shipping charge) ***was $25, but most of first shipment was $1 more then I had estimated (sorry)***
Please no international orders (sorry guys - would love to help but all of these are gonna be gone quick and it's more work then I want to try and ship beyond local borders - If you choose to set up a freight forward, then that is up to you, as long as the address is US).
FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE, PRIVATE MESSAGE ME WITH YOUR PAYPAL ACCOUNT USERNAME AND YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS.
**** DO NOT POST YOUR ORDER TO THIS THREAD, I WILL NOT BE WATCHING IT ****
You have 24 hours to respond to the receipt or I will give yours to the next available person. Please only order the quantity equal to gtabs you own. I want to be fair to all the gtab customers waiting for these. Please be fair. These are "As is" - I am not a store, no warranty implied, no returns.
One case came in with a 1/8" scrape that went through the pleather (inside right bottom below gtab menu buttons). I am offerring this case for $18 - IF YOU WANT IT, PLEASE STATE THAT IN THE MESSAGE. If you receive a receipt for full amount, then I already sold the discounted item.
Everything is shipping USPS priority and I will do my very best to get these out within a day of payment receipt.
ENJOY!!!

Hi,
I'd like to get one. How much it is.
Are they Modified??
Have these been modified at all show the power button and the Back button more clearly? or are they just the stock version and still blocked a little?
Thanks
I am interested. How much do you project it will be?
I am interested in one as well as long as the price is reasonable
Please read the threads and review the links I gave. This is final version zpad case (not a protoype). All the holes should be cut perfectly, just the USB/Micro SD is covered by side strap.
Once I have them, I will post my official review and comments.
Right now I am estimating $18-$19 for the case. Final price $22 - $25 depending on shipping. I have to go to the post office and get the official amount.
Be sure to watch this thread. AS SOON AS I GET THEM, I WILL POST "FIRST COME FIRST SERVE"
At that time I will take private messages getting your Paypal address, and shipping information. I will then provide a receipt for payment to the given address. If a receipt goes unanswered for 24 hrs, I will forfeit it and allow the next one in line a chance for one.
This is all new to me and I am just trying to help everyone out. All I ask is be patient with me as I have a 10 hour day job too. I am not trying to make money on these, this will be at my cost.
Would like one as well. Rather than coming back here to repost, would you consider taking orders now - I would not mind pre-paying you for it. Thanks.
At that price I am definitely in. I am concerned that I would not be checking the forum when it hits, so I woul be glad to pay for it now and make sure I get it. I'll Paypal anytime you are ready.
I am in as well
I'm in also.
I'm in... My P3 is a little too much prototype for me
I'm IN please. Thanks
I'm in for that price.
I'm in as well!! let us know when they do become available.
Sign me up too. Regarding what a PP asked, can we reserve one early? I'm away on business and will be unable to check either the forum or my e-mail very often.
Thanks
Im interested. standing by for your updated post..

I googled gtablet shell and found this link
http://www.dhgate.com/new-designed-...-case/p-ff8080812d3be2aa012d66674a8513ab.html
I wonder if we can buy these elsewhere. It says designed for gtablet. But this is only to buy a quantity of 50. Maybe someone else is selling them. I'd really love to have a protective shell for the gtab.
I love a hard shell too. I love my otterbox case for my ipod. I wish they made them for the gtablet too.
Looks like most colors are out of stock
I need this really bad but not pink or red
Maybe if we can get 50 people here interested we can coordinate a group buy.
I'm in for pink!

Group buy anyone?
**Update **
These are currently not in production yet, the supplier in China is still in the prototyping stage. I will update here as I hear more.
I'd be in for one or two, but I'm not going to be the one to leave the massages.
I would be in for two as well
Blue, black or red
Would be nice if something can getworked out
I'd be in for one. Let me know if anyone is able to get something worked out.
I'd also be in for one.. black preferred
I might be willing to bite the bullet and order these for the group, as I am sure I could sell the rest of on eBay without getting the full 50 people. But I think I would rather purchase from the original Zec store and spend a couple more dollars.
I am looking at a total lot cost of $421.05 right now making each item $8.421 for the group buy. Is everyone okay with that cost? If so I might order them on Tuesday (April 20th) when I get paid again.
I sent a message asking if we can get the wholesale lot in a couple different colors. I will post and let everyone know what I hear back.
Edit:
The list as I see it so far.

That sounds great to me. I'd be in for 1 in black. As for the $8.421 price, I'm not sure how I'm going to get you that tenth of a penny.

Well, remember we need shipping too. So assuming these things are around 4-5 oz each we are probably looking at around $2 to ship them. I will let you guys know the exact price once I have them in hand.
Got an information...No longer. They are developing TPU shells now.

Interesting. I wonder if Steve has any info on this?
A TPU Shell would be great. Wonder when that comes out ?
Keep you eye. I have to keep silent. Otherwise XDA administrator will warn me again. They said I was in advertising.
I hope I can find one and a dock in stock... Wish me luck I have been looking forward to getting one
It'll be like going ice fishing.
Is there any color choice you're looking for in particular (Champagne (Gold) or Alchemist (Gray))?
good luck.
finding a prime here locally in chicago, is just as bad as the iPad 2 availability launch..gl on your search.
Good luck....once you do find it, it'll be more than worth it.
You so funny!

I want one of the Alchemist Grey's. All I got was Amethyst Grey.
For the OP:
Just remember, (if you have been researching the Prime, this is not news to you) - Make sure wherever you pick one up that they a) Have a good return policy, and CHECK it, don't assume. and b) Ideally they have a decent amount of stock. It doesn't help if you get a defective unit if there is nothing in stock to exchange it FOR.
Good luck. The Prime is a beautiful device. I hope you eithr get or plan to get a keyboard dock, as it's not just an accessory. It's the Primes "Other half", LOL - but is awesome and makes the Prime special and unique (or did until Lenovo ripped off the idea) I wonder what, if any kind of patents Asus has on the dock. It could never be completely unique to Asus, but they have done it so well, few if any can approach the tight integration that Asus has.
Let us know how it turns out!
try Staples, or Gamestop. You get a few free games already installed.

It's very hard to find one trust me. Not one Best Buy in Michigan, Ohio, or Indiana has any available.After researching like mad. This where I just bought mine. Same exact thing.
http://www.gamestop.com/tablets/asus-transformer-prime-32gb-grey-tablet-bundle/98405
Just before I would recommend calling & double check they do have available. When I ordered mine last Wednesday there was a couple hundred available.
Hope this helps!
Good Luck!

If you want to try bestbuy again. Try this go to the salesperson and tell them this "I would like an OMS order SKU#4038674"
Finally found one ! and it was the ONLY one my local Tiger Direct Brick & Mortar had one, Found one dock @ my local Best Buy just Finished with all the OTA updates WiFi is good Haven't tried Bluetooth yet I tried GPS briefly and got no lock.... off to research ! Man this thing is AWESOME !!!
Prime docks are available in best buy now as a walk in walk out purchase? What's the OMS order number for the dock in case they don't have it.
This is gonna sound stupid... but what is an oms # ?
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using XDA Premium HD app
Like a special order or similar..like order for warehouse item
Would it be on the receipt or the box ?
Got my dock last week at my local Best Buy in Pa. Last one on the shelf. Looking at the box and receipt and don't know what number you need?
I decided to make a dedicated thread, as in two other threads a few people were interested. Currently, what looks to be the best fitting tempered glass screen protector is available only in Japan. In both black and white. I have no clue on what price we can get, but I will leave this topic up for a week, and if we can get enough people interested, I will contact the manufacturer and attempt to set a deal.
Some links of the screen protector.

I'm interested assuming it actually fits the way that it should.
Edit: it looks like the price on their shop is around 32$ USD if you convert the currency. That's not bad if it works plus it looks nice. Its too bad iloome never came around and made one just like this.
I'd register an interest, but (1) I'd like to know whether it actually works - all we have to go on so far is the advertising material, and (2) I'm based in the UK, so a shipped-to-US deal doesn't help me.
If somebody on here could try one and confirm that it works, and they would ship to the UK (or ideally worldwide, given the global nature of this forum) then I'd certainly buy one.

No one is able to get just one, and if they ship to US we can forward to UK no problem. Currently, unless we find someone who lives in Japan and has an N6, willing to buy one to review it.. We have to trust the advertised video. However, I have never been disappointed with any products coming from Japan.. The Chinese knock-off.. well I wouldn't trust, although someone purchased one and will write a review once it arrives.
Just read the Chinese knock off is plastic, too bad I ordered it already...very disappointed
In for black one. We need this.

That sux.. Do let us know more when you receive it though.
I'm interested in this. When would the trigger be for the order? After we reach XX interests?
I'd be in for one possibly two
I'm hoping this will work out and not be sh*tty because that would make a lot of people unhappy. I wonder if there is a way they can send a sample over for someone to test if we are doing a large order.

Hi XDA,
I have 3 official OnePlus 5 cases I would like to give away. They are the official Karbon, Ebony, and Rosewood cases. Image of the 3 cases: https://imgur.com/X9Cp6I8
They're unused and have just been sitting on my shelf for a while. I received them as part of the reviewer's kit but have no need for them. Rather than having them continue to sit on my shelf, I will give them away to anyone who wants them. The only catch is that you'll have to pay for shipping.
I will pack the cases in a padded envelope and send it to you if you live in the U.S. Just send me a DM if you're interested. I will give preference to RC/RD and other recognized members.
Cheers!
Case sent to Awkydee. Enjoy!

That's pretty kind of you, if everybody would give the things they don't use to people who would use them, we'd live in a far better world.

Damn, always wanted the wooden ones, but as previos poster, I live in europe. Pity on me! Anyway, that is really nice of you!

Still rocking the official Karbon case, it's damn sturdy. Would've definitely loved either one of the other two, but I'm halfway across the world in India. Thanks for the offer though!
Still have this. Only got DMs from 3 people, still waiting to hear back from them.
I left a message on your inbox, im happy to pay for the shipping, im still rocking my 1+5
