$2.99 leather case on eBay??

[tarheelsXL]

Hi, I just recently ordered a leather case for my new color iPod for $2.99 Buy It Now ($5.99 shipping, $8.98 total)... I ordered the black model 4 and the picture makes it look pretty nice - plus it's protects the screen. It's less than 9 bucks shipped so I thought why not give it a try?

Anyone else buy / try these cases? I'm not expecting too much but I'm hoping I'll be pleasantly surprised. The seller has a bunch of them up for sale in similar eBay auctions

Anyway, seems like a good deal, you can click View Sellers other items if you want to try one for yourself

That's pretty much the exact case I've been looking for, and you sure can't beat the price! I asked if it will fit my 60GB photo though.. waiting for a response.. anyway, thanks for the heads up! :)

Just got the case in today... pretty nice - adds very, very little bulk to the iPod since the leather itself isn't very thick (don't expect great drop protection). The design is very form fitting and SNUG. Leather stretches out so it's not a long term problem but it's pretty difficult to put the iPod in initially. The iPod doesn't even go all the way in at first but keep working at it. The black cloth pouch that it comes with is REALLY nice - I think it has more value than the leather case itself. Anyway, it's a great deal

I can see myself using the case for workouts since it's got a clip and using the cloth pouch to store the wires, adapter, accessories, etc.
