Anyone else order a cruzerlite TPU case and have it arrived all scratched up? It looks used...I definitely don't recommend buying from cruzerlite.

On a side note, can anyone recommend a nice pouch that might help protect against metal shavings that get in my pocket at work?

look at the packaging, maybe it got squashed in the mail or something, I doubt they'll send you a used one.

I've always found Bugatti pouches to be very nice, made from real leather and not to expensive, lots of choice too.

I have one and I bought one for my girlfriend. Neither of the Cruzerlite cases have scratches and they came in perfect condition.

Sounds like something happened either during shipping or the place you bought it from.

It might sound silly, but I recommend using a ziploc bag at your workplace. Those metal shaving will find there way through any case or pouch, and depending on the type of metal shavings, they will be very attracted to your speakers magnets! Been there, done that!

On your case, just contact them... if they don't know you have a problem, they cannot offer you any solution!

I work in a machine shop... About once a week I have to take a small magnet to the speakers, it's amazing how many little chips it picks up.

On my One S, my speaker actually sounded like it was blown, so I went to replace it and it turned out to be metal chips.

I leave my phone in drawer in a toolbox at work.

I hear you!

The worst thing you can do to your phone is blow into the speakers (killed my OG evo's rear speaker by doing exactly that)... especially if you work in that type of environment. I pulled my old evo's speaker out and did the "speaker drop" onto a magnet and pulled a ton of stuff out of it. But of course like an idiot I blew into it (nintendo style) as soon as it started to sound bad!

Whenever I'm in a metal shop or near a beach, I'm ziploc'in it!

Not silly at all. You can check my post history, I've talked about doing just that. I use freezer bags because they're a little heavier duty.. just tired of doing it. Thanks for the input guys

AHAHAHA, I didn't know that. SO- feel pretty good about having checked out this thread. Learn something new everyday.

Anyhow, was gonna say my cruzerlite case came in fine, so your problem is probably unique and should request an exchange.
