just grab one in bestbuy instead of ebay
I have one and it's excellent. Well mine is branded by Momax, but it's exactly the same. It's back is solid and it's side cling on tight to the phone, inlike the SGP version. It's not that thin though, but not too thick. For a balance of thinness and protection, it's a great combination.

Unfortunately, you're hocking those products so much with reckless abandon that it's already leaving a bad taste in my mouth. Sucks, too, because some of those products I would be interested in but due to the unslaught of Kevikev linking, I wouldn't even consider it.

I actually msg him and he said his not the owner of the site. I wanted a discount since I was buying a few things but he said there's nothing he can do since it's not his company, so I went and buy my accessories at amazon.
Got mine from Kevikev.com
Ordered Sunday and not it today at work! Quick shipping. Came with a screen protector for the international version.

Wow. Then I guess he needs to go shopping at more places. Just sayin'.
Bought one from Keivkev from their ebay store since it was about a buck cheaper with the free shipping. Arrived in 2 days. Interesting how its fine to mention Amazon and best buy in this thread but not a smaller seller. I guess if Jeff Bezos came in here and posted a link to a product on amazon he'd be rediculed as well....
Anyway. Good case. Fits snug. Pressing the buttons isn't as easy as doing it without a case but I guess that's to be expected. Actually maybe it'll be a benefit since I accidentally hit the volume buttons when I'm typing or doing something in lansldscape.
The included screen protector was a suprise as I didn't read the full description. Its made for the international version so it has an opening for its button. I may use it until I get one made specifically for the US model. Overall, worth the 14 bux or so.
Just ordered this case on eBay from kevikev a couple days ago! Can't wait..

Thank you!! Just got one, looks great!
I got this a couple of days ago -- screen protector sucks, but flip cover is decent. I'm going to use it for backup once I get my seidio cover thouh.
Had one for my S4. Pretty good for the price. They will eventually raise it up to $8+ so if you want this type of case, should get it now.

Up to $3.99 now I wouldn't order one though. By that I mean me. feel free to if you go for that sort of thing.
Wouldn't the magnets cause some sort of a damage to the phone/S Pen?

If you have doubts it should have came with a certificate of authenticity a small little piece of paper. You can go to there website and verify.
Yeah the case has a hologram sticker on it for authenticity and a serial number for your case, also the case it self probably cost $5 or $10 bucks, really well made.

It did come with that piece of paper and it did verify. Just never had one of their cases come in a box like this.

Yea, mine came in that same cardboard box that you're showing us in the picture. I think it's just a new box design or somethin, but it's been around for a couple of months now I believe. As long as you checked out the authenticity on their website, you should be good to go! Mine checked out just fine too on their website, so I didn't really stress the new design too much, although I was kinda wonderin what the deal was with the box design at first lol
The huge plastic box is pretty but really wasteful. Makes sense to go to cardboard.

Mine (in white) came in the same box ... it is the real deal.
Does any one have one of these? I have bought one that is a copy, I just wondered if a genuine one did anything with the screen?
The genuine one is five times the price, is it worth the extra money?
It offers good side protection, you could take pictures without opening the flip, answer the phone,change music tracks etc. It's useful
I'm not fond of flip case but the S view seems good.
I had the occasion to try the S5 version and it was great. But you loose the look of the Alpha like other flip cover or case.
I saw a lot of copy 3 times cheaper than the original and they seem good.
Maybe someone has one, it can be great to have some feedback.
anyone have a pic of the side of the original case and fake case ? i want to see how well it protect the sides

Got a black version from Ebay yesterday and I LOVE IT. ..........100% genuine
I'm currently undergoing the issue of having the back peel off my nexus 6 and I've only had it for a week so I don't have another $600.00 for them to place a hold on my account for a replacement. On google+ a guy sent me a link and said these might be wood replacement backs. He said somebody posted a pic of it and said they are actual replacement backs not just skins. If they are backs I plan on buying one now
slickwraps.com/natural-series-wraps-skins-for-nexus-6
There's a .html at the end. Can't add links yet since XDA still got that crazy 10 post thing going on
These are simply skins that stick over the back, not replacement back panels. If you need a new back panel, they're on ebay with adhesive skin to apply them similar to stock. Goodluck.
Yes you can buy new white and blue back panels from ebay. They are perfect replacements.
Thanks a lot you guys! Didn't realize eBay had them. Then on top of that there not coming from overseas... awesome
Just to add to this, yes they are an adhesive skin, but they are real wood, and not a thin flimsy decal. If you read the original @slickwraps thread, people have removed the plastic nexus backing, and put the Naturals bamboo skin as a replacement, and it was a perfect fit, but it wasnt meant to be a replacement and not marketed as such. (The Naturals line, both leather and wood, are much thicker than flimsy plastic decals since they are real leather and wood)
I myself own a few of the Slickwraps Naturals products, and I have to say I am impressed with the quality.
I have the dark brown leather as my back and I removed the stock back. It fits 100% perfect and I love it! I also bought a spare OEM back in case I need it. The bamboo might need some sanding to fit flush I haven't tried it with mine yet but if and when I do I'll post some pictures.

Do you have a photo of that? since if you are not using your original back plate the nexus and M letters will look strange?

OK no problem and yes I bought the spare OEM back on eBay from a seller in NJ. The leather is on my phone so I'll take some pictures for you. I just applied some conditioner so it's wet but I have a older picture of when I first installed it that I'll post right now below for you. I'll add new pictures once the constraints l conditioner is done drying. I"aged" the leather because it looks better with some wear on it.

i also bought an extra back from ebay. received it yesterday but the curved part of the letter "u" was not in place. it had come off. i put it back in place no problem but it leads me to think they will come off easy. another thing i noticed is that the ebay one, the "nexus" letters are chrome and the ones that actually come on the phone are silver.
good thing i got the ebay one to play with it. i'm going to end up painting it or something. haven't decided what yet.

The one I bought is fine and identical to my OEM one that I took off my phone. I can post a side by side if you would like. It could be a different supplier for the back or something because most people have had good experiences with the ones from eBay. I'm not saying there aren't bad ones out there but I received a good one.
