[Q] on ballistic case from amazon - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wanted to buy a billistic case for my nexus 4 but they are sold out on the global ballistic website. I found a few on amazon that say ballistic and look exactly the same for around $20. But they are from different vendors.
My question is are they the real cases or knock offs?

The replicas might look the same but they won't say Ballistic on the back.

OK thanks.
It says it on the back.
So how can vendors sell cheaper than the company that supposedly made it?

It is important for manufacturers to keep the wholesalers on as customers, as that is their main source of revenue. If they undercut their wholesalers, the wholesalers will get angry and stop purchasing, thereby burying the manufacturer.

Thanks for info

I found one locally for $250 (ATT model). As I was going to meet the guy, he said he had another offer for $350. Jerk.
Ended up getting one on eBay for $399 new in a sealed box.

I'd be willing to part with mine for 350. Ringke case and Zagg protector included.

Reviews say it works with other than iPad devices, for $5 it's worth trying it.

People probably paid $70 for them and for that price I imagine that they do suck.
They would not do that online price and coupon for me.

That's what I did. Ordered online and chose in-store pickup.
At that point, you've already paid for them. They can't say no, lol.

Sold my 16GB on craigslist last week with a moko case for $220. Now I have a 32GB and love it. The 32GB appears to have a different screen, not the yellowish one my 16GB had.

I think the screen is the same.. perhaps your old N7 had a bad [yellow] screen? mine is not yellow [bought when N7 was released on google play]

I agree my last one was yellow. My original pre order from play was nice but kept freezing so I exchanged it. I was reading in a different forum that nexus changed screen manufacturers for the newer batches. I hate hear say so either way my new nexus looks better than either of my last two. I will just be thankful, the yellow was unbearable.

Something is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Throw it out there and see if you get a bite. If not drop it by $15 and throw it out there again. Personally, I would not buy it because of some other devices getting ready to be released. But it does not hurt to ask.

If it's the 16gb it's worth a shot... if is the 8gb then that's too much

Sounds reasonable to me. Check swappa and look at the recently sold. Only problem is is there are a lot of them listed so if you want to unload it quickly, you'll likely have to drop the price.

UK / Europe buyers

I for one am itching to get one over here in UK. I am going to wait for the developer or unlocked gsm version to appear.
Are there others in the same boat? How are you getting yours sent over?
I don't think the UK/Europe is getting it in any form, the moto.uk dpage says 'something new is coming' but I suspect it's going to be the cut down cheapo version.
I know. Bit I can't be the inky one that's going to get one sent from the US

Your not alone mate. I will be importing one soon.
I will be either getting an AT&T 32GB customised one which I will unlock, or I will get the Developer Edition since that's 32GB too.

I'm not bothered about the customs as I'm boring and just want woven black anyway.
How are you getting it sent over? Or buying from a site?
