I wonder if these are coming from the same channel used for warranty replacements? Those, at least, don't include charging covers (annoying, since any accident that destroys the Oasis is quite likely to do a number on the cover as well).
Given that the covers are the most likely component to be damaged -- that's kind of the point of making the cover a cover -- they are annoyingly hard to replace. They haven't been available in the UK for years, and they won't ship them from the US store because they contain a battery: i had to get a friend to literally smuggle one into the country and hand it to me as he passed by on the train!
