I picked up a Merlot cover (via Amazon Warehouse) the other day -- at $12, why not? I wonder if the Merlot cover was discontinued as the Merlot Oasis is listed as out of stock.

My Walnut cover has a few corners that are separating and the glue I used to attempt repair didn't work well (don't use Gorilla Glue!), so $12 for another cover that hopefully won't have that problem is an easy choice to make. I wouldn't have spent full price for it, though.

It will arrive this coming Monday, and I won't mind if it has a few scratches on it. It's possible that Amazon is selling off covers removed from returned units. Who knows? That price is crazily low, so I'm not expecting perfection.
