I'm interested in a green one (and possibly a red one). How much would it cost if it's shipped to Canada? Also, do I pay via paypal?
Well I got a problem now. I had a few people that wanted to buy from me and now 2 backed out and I need probably about 8 people or cases to make it worth while. So u can give me a couple days to get a few people together or there is the buychina.com option as posted a few posts back. It'll cost alot less to buy from buychina.com its only $12 shipped through them but its very slow shipping. Let me know u wanna do. I do take PayPal

I thought the ones you got were from qspades (the seller) on the Taobao site. The ones from buychina are the same ones. Buychina is simply a forwarding service, they will buy from the Taobao site and send it to you for a fee. I've had bad experiences with Buychina so I would highly say don't do it, but someone on here has gotten their shipment safe and sound so take everything you hear with a grain of salt.
Did buychina rip you off? Here's his post (scroll a bit down):

I've personally never ordered anything from them before, but that particular Taobao seller on the buychina site has 100% feedback (albeit 5 ratings only) so for just $12 it might be a risk worth taking (I'd like a red or white one!).
But I'm happy with my official Play Store bought LG bumper and already putting money aside for the X phone so I am probably done buying accessories for the N4.
The ratings on buychina... doesn't really make sense to me. You are not dealing with the seller, but with a middleman so ratings about quality may be legitimate, but complains about shipping speed/service attitude/goods didn't arrive... you are really complaining about buychina.com as a whole, not each individual sellers who don't even know they are listed on the site. It is like writing to Barnes and Noble to complain that the service attitude of the salesman sucks when you bought it at Staplers - what's the point?
Furthermore, you are going through two layers of postage, and both layers are at the slowest options possible (short of going by sea) to save cost.
Anyway I bought a green, white and yellow bumper from Taobao together with a wireless charger and fancy diary case. Would be interesting to see them up close.

This is the wireless charger I bought.
They have 3 models, I bought the first one.
The 3rd model is very interesting though:
Sure looks unique.
How much is that charger in US $

At today's exchange rate, USD24.04. The devil is in the shipping though.

This brings up a good point (though I respectfully disagree with your post). It looks like the feedback score posted on buychina is not up to date.. Buychina only lists 5 ratings (100%) for the taobao seller:
http://www.buychina.com/items/lg-e9...er-google-nexus-fourth-son-prince-ssoqunrqnlo
But in actuality, the seller has several hundred ratings on taobao. Here is the original taobao seller's link for those bumpers:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.10.105.vjbuDB&id=22451776961
We can see the seller ( 小甜豆的幸福生活 ) has 95% positive feedback and has sold quite a few of these bumpers recently (generally positive feedback from skimming the feedback comments). So, the feedback score listed on buychina for that taobao seller -- while intent was good -- should probably not be relied on for this reason unless it is just showing you the number of times buychina used that seller (which I doubt looking at other items on the site, it just looks like they haven't mirrored the taobao feedback in a while). You should instead rely on taobao feedback page to gauge the seller him/herself. At least buychina does link to the seller's taobao listing on their listing page, so you can easily get this info yourself.
Here's that seller's feedback page on taobao if anyone needs it:

Its not the taobao seller I think most are worried about. Its the buychina.com agent that people are worried about.
