Would like to know how you managed to order it on the 26th of Nov seeing how it was sold out by the released day. This is now confusing.

I ordered my bumper on Nov. 27th here in the UK as well. At the time, it showed in stock and ready to ship in 2-3 days. Still nothing yet, and no change/updates in my Wallet account.

Mine that I ordered on 24/11 in the UK has shipped today. I am currently trying to get the shipping charges refunded. To be honest I aint really that bothered about it now, My TPU case is fine.

Just received my shipping email for my bumper order placed 21st November.

Perhaps it's my reward for keeping my cool with customer services today when they said "I can't answer any of your questions"...

I ordered mine on the 21st and since I complained via email the order has now updated every day - but still shows as pending. It's just changed again, so the order date is now December 6th. I have no idea what they are doing but I am in contact with the same person via email and she claims to be chasing it every day. If I click on the order details then it still shows as being ordered on the 21st so they haven't cancelled it and reordered it as far as I can see.

But the fact they don't have a clue on stock levels or shipping details is just nuts. If I see it before Christmas I'll actually be surprised.

Unbelievable, these bumpers are selling for upwards of 100 dollars on ebay. It's shameful that people would support these re-sellers by feeding them tons of money for a 20 dollar product.

the price people are willing to pay for something they can't wait for. i've said it before and i'll say it again, supply and demand. low supply, high demand, high resale prices. what's really shameful is that people are willing to spend that much on them. it's hard to be mad at the sellers. you obviously want the case, be patient, or you should have ordered when they dropped. i did, they didn't sell out as fast as the phone did.

Just got my bumper, and I'm not really a fan of it. Makes the phone wider and harder to use, it also makes the phone more slippery. I'll keep it for a day or so, and if it's still not to my liking I'll stick with my TPU case.

It does feel a lot wider and more uncomfortable to hold.

    Moral of the story...be at the right place right time make some easy Christmas $$$ to replace my stolen MBP, I'm not forcing anybody to buy anything. It's like anything else, if people really need it/want it, they will have to have it at any cost. I just happen to have a few of what they need, as well as a few N4 16GB ;P

    .... I'm glad your macbook got stolen. I hope other things get stolen from you, and perhaps a tree falls on your car and karma finds many other ways to get back at you for being a selfish dbag.

    :thumbup:

    on a related note, my bumper is scheduled to arrive tomorrow, surprised at the fast turnaround time

    Is there any way you could post some photos of the tpu case next to the bumper to compare the width of them? Thanks

    I like the way its snug fit with the phone.

    It was taken with an iPhone 5... purple haze! ZING! :p
