Its a bit high priced, but then I got to use my points so it didn't hurt as much.

Now that I have used the Oasis for a while, I find it quite comfortable. It took a while to settle on how to hold it. My small hands are doing well with it.
I bought two of the Amazon covers, a leather Merlot, and an Indigo Water-Safe, and returned them when the covers disappeared as the stand function didn't work very well, the magnets on the top right didn't seem to hold. I bitterly regretted my stupidity as my third party cover just wasn't as good. I prefer the buldge flattened out with the Amazon cover, and I liked the ease of removing and replacing the Oasis when reading without a cover.

Anyway, about two weeks after I returned them the a single Merlot cover appeared as a warehouse deal, it was during Black Friday so I they also have 20% off all Amazon covers. I bought it for £33. Once that arrived I had a suspicion it was my returned cover, which was great as for everything else the magnets worked fine. A day after my Merlot cover arrived the Indigo turned up as a warehouse deal, again just the one. I got that for £24. Again I think it's my returned cover, a few things with the box convinced me.

Now I'm not sure what the odds are for buying back your own returns but I consider myself a very lucky woman . And no, this time, they will not be returned.

Third party covers are okay but for the Oasis design I just don't like them.
