Hi wayrad, this is indeed upsetting  . I hope the scuffing was only on the frame. One would think that a micro-suede interior lining would on the contrary prevent abrasion. I too would have a problem trusting such a cover if the same experience happens to me. Do you think it could come from some strayed hard dust particles that have attached themselves to the micro-suede? Or, instead the fabric has small irregularities that caused the scraping?

Yes, it was just a couple of spots on the frame above the screen. Really it was just a bit shiny ("polished" looking) there - it bothered me, but might not bother someone else, since it took a good light to see it. I couldn't feel any grit in the "suede" lining, but it seems a bit harsher and "grippier" than real suede or sueded cloth would be, and there's some play in the front cover so it can move sideways against the Nook's plastic frame. I was mostly carrying it in the laptop pocket of a backpack (with mainly soft things inside the main compartment).
I wouldn't have expected there to be scuffing, and haven't seen anybody else mention it. So it's fairly puzzling, but it definitely started after I got that cover.
P.S. I don't think about it any more now that I have my nice textured carbon-fiber Skinit on there.
