In order of priority:

Just as an eg, I saw this one for about $10. Intd in any thoughts...
Amazon UK has Forefront brand covers in both Origami and no-fold styles, and lots of colors. I think they’re the same as the one in the Ebay listing you showed. The “F” on the cover looks the same. I bought a couple in the no-fold style a couple of years ago and I’ve been happy with them. The Wake/Sleep feature works well, they're lightweight, and not slippery. Mine were from an older listing (no longer available) but I think the current listings are for the same covers.

I also bought a couple in the same no-fold style that they make for the first Libra.

I don’t care for Origami cases myself. They always feel floppy to me (even the official Kobo ones) and the stand feature is less than optimal – they always seem to be crooked or unstable or at the wrong angle. I keep a lightweight foldable stand in my purse that works for everything from a phone to an eight-inch tablet in a case. Mine is from Amazon US and comes in two sizes; I have the large size (which is still quite small) –
