With the pandemic, it's hard to get direct info, even to the degree that they'd normally give it, from any of these companies.
So I've been looking into alternatives with Indigo being an appealing one. Their customer service phone number is down because of the pandemic, too. I see that it would be $118 delivered, pretty much the same as Walmart's original price, but minus the tax. Not nearly as good as the sale price, but I'd feel better than I'd feel buying from Walmart.
Back to something resembling the original post, I already have the Kobo branded case for the Clara HD, which I'll return if I never get the device. It feels solid and the reading stand, which is not the origami style, is pretty stable and usable. Aesthetically, it's not exciting, but it would appear that it'll do the job. I've never bought any of these covers for any device that was all that durable. I got a pricey name brand one for an iPad that didn't hold up much better than the Amazon ones do.

I have a brand new Clara HD that I'm willing to part with. PM me if you are interested in buying it.
