Default Retail tpu cases

Has anyone seen tpu cases at a local retail store? I was thinking about checking those kiosks you see in the malls that sell cheap "stuff". I noticed previously that they rarely carry accessories for new phones besides the iPhone. Any heads up would be appreciated. I could get on Ebay or Amazon but Ebay, you don't know what you're getting because sometimes pictures are poor quality. An issue I have is I really need usps for shipping because of my residence and nobody being home when the other companies delivery trucks show up. Suggestions are welcome.

Ebay is going to be the cheapest but I wouldn't buy from anyone who isn't in the states or if the pics are fuzzy just keep it moving. There is someone on Ebay that uses usps but double check the shipping info. Also you can just buy it straight from their site for like $8 plus shipping. I haven't seen any of the TPU cases other than Ebay, amazon or their site directly myself.

Which would you think would be less likely to slip out of your hand, gloss or matte?

I have a gloss for my ns4g and it feels decent. The inside of the case is matte and it feels slightly more slippery.

I have both the gloss and matte mentioned from the site above and I find the gloss to be less slippery. Also, he delivers usps so you shouldn't have an issue there
