Beautiful ornate black iron stand for G-tablet < $10 - G Tablet Accessories

I love my Arkon stand, but got tired of folding it up and tucking it in the case to carry to work so I started looking for another. Found this one on Amazon and thought it would look great ... and it does! Comes in gold too.

It is way classier-looking than any other I have seen and works just as well in Portrait mode. A caveat, they are buying these from china and the welding is not as precise so you may need to (like I did) take some pliers to it to straighten the arms a bit. I had some foam grip things made for pens/pencils that slid over the arms to make a nice cushy bed for my tab.

I clicked the link and while it describes a stand, it shows pictures of Boots. Yeah, BOOTS! Haha, and also keep in mind that the person purchasing would have to have Amazon Prime to get it for under $10 shipped. (I do have amazon prime, but I'm not in need of boots ) But it does qualify for FSSS (spend $25 on qualifying products and free shipping).
The picture you posted does look really nice though.

Yes, and in fact once I placed the order - that is what showed (picture) with the description of the stand so I wrote the seller. I made it EXTREMELY clear that if it was not exactly as described, they would be getting it back ... on their dime. They replied immediately, assuring me the stand was what was ordered. And that IS what I received.
That is the beauty of Amazon and prime, the service is unparalleled. If something is not exactly as described, refund is easy and immediate and if it is not a big-ticket thing, generally I keep the wrong item for free.
In reality it is every bit as nice as the (non-boots) picture. Very pleased with it and if anyone else in the family had tabs, they would be getting them as gifts.

With it being cast iron, I would think that it would be pretty rough on the case of the G-Tab. Any other stand that I have found has some sort of "padding".

I saw similar stands in Wal-Mart today for about $3.50. I bought the wooden ones for a few cents more.

Funny you should mention that. I was originally thinking of some heat-shrink tubing over the little arms that hold the tab and then saw something on a clearance table at the dollar store.
The little foam sleeves that go on pens and pencils fit perfectly. Come in beaucoup colors too.
