Wow. 25%. that's a lot.

Well, I'm hoping i am charged appropriate duty fees. but just like you said, you just never know with customs sometimes. Here's hoping it all goes smoothly.

I just picked up a Devilcase I bought from Taiwan. It feels very, very solid.

I’m not a big fan of the back of the case. It’s clear except around the camera, feels a bit "slippery", and picks up every fingerprint.
The phone is thicker and weighs a little more than with Spigen's case.

You have to try a few out to find the best phone case, after all.

I looked into those Devilcase cases, but they were too expensive for what they offered. I had their bumper case in the past, which was entirely aluminum but did not provide any protection to the front or back.

I ordered the spigen rugged case and the sony style cover. I will try both to see which one I like more and possibly just switch them up depending on my mood.

I'm sure I will like the spigen but I hate the thought of hiding that beautiful color.

does your devilcase have magsafe built in? that is something i'd like to add to the cases I ordered, if possible.

There is a Magnetic/MagSafe Edition, but I didn´t choose that. I always use one of my Sony XQZ-UC1 fast chargers.

My phone has finally shipped. It has yet to clear Japanese customs, but I'm sure it will be fine.

I would say that ordering through buyee has been a terrible experience. I will never use them again.

I won't get into it unless someone is curious, but I cannot recommend them to anyone.

Anyway, here's hoping my phone arrives by Friday so I have it to play with over the weekend.

Thanks Tai! I hope so too. Will definitely update once I have it in hand with photos with it in both the sony style case and the spigen case if anybody is interested.

I'm sorry about the mishap. I have a question for everyone: why don't you buy from Wondamobile, which has the international model, shipping arrives in a couple of days, and most importantly, there are no customs fees to pay?

I checked Wonda Mobile before I made the purchase from Buyee. But I couldn´t find the 16GB version.
