Used covers, returned covers, are being sold on Amazon in the U.S. The price is $85. The product page includes:
"This cover is designed to personalize your Kindle Oasis, while protecting the display from dust and scratches when not in use. It is not built to protect against accidental drops. It fits the contours of your Kindle Oasis without fully wrapping the device, leaving the corners and the handgrip portion of the aluminum back uncovered. We recommend detaching before reading for the lightest possible one-handed experience."
What I always wanted. A cover that protects the device from dust when not in use, provides no protection from drops, and is recommended removed before reading on the Oasis2.
FWIW, there are a lot of other covers for the Oasis 2 for sale on Amazon. Fintie and Moko are two companies selling them.
I returned my Oasis 2 and have no regrets, either. For $250, I was not impressed and without a cover that offers protection I think I'll pass.
