I just sent a message to Cover-Up to ask when the hemp case will be available for pre-order on Amazon.com. I am interested in one.

I've put a pre-order in for £10.92 on the Cover-Up black hemp cover with Flubit, and I'll see how it is when it arrives.

I'm giving Flubit a try. I'll see what sort of price they come up with for me. I'm not sure I'll buy from there though as the cover will be easier to buy from Amazon.com once it's listed there. But It would depend on price.

I've received my Fintie cover in blue and it fits nicely. I can fold over the cover so it touches in the back and it does not put the H2O to sleep when it should not. Seems like it should do the job well.

I'm not at all happy with Gecko covers. I pre ordered a H20 Slimfit cover on the 9th November. It was supposed to ship on the 3rd December. I heard nothing from Gecko so last Friday I asked them if it had shipped only to be told it was delayed now until the 22nd December. The last thing I want is something shipping over Christmas so I asked them to cancel my pre order and refund me as I'd paid via PayPal back on the 9th.

Their attempt to reverse the transaction 'failed' so now they have sent me euros (I paid in sterling) which exchanges to less than I actually paid.

I'm not impressed at all.

The Cover-up case looks nice.

It's on pre-order special.

I've looked at that case and it looks nice. I'm just more annoyed with Gecko right now as why should I lose money because I pre ordered.

I guess it has the benefit that it you don't like it, you can always smoke it.

Cute.

I do like it in the brown shades. I have my Fintie case that's working very well. But it's not available at Amazon UK.

But it s available at Amazon.de. http://www.amazon.de/Kobo-Aura-H2O-H.../dp/B00PLJLP68

Contact gecko and tell them you want your money back or you'll go to your credit card company to get the money back.

I've done that, it's paypal so I'll speak to them in a few days if I don't hear from Gecko. I've not accepted the Euro payment they've sent so everything's still outstanding.

PayPal is good at disputes. Last time I had an eBay dispute, Paypal was really good. The item I bought on eBay was not as advertised. It was advertised as new and it wasn't. I went round and round with the seller and finally contacted Paypal. Not only did I get my money back, but I didn't have to send the item back to the seller.

I know you'll come out on top since you have PayPal in your corner.

I sent Fintie a message via their website asking if they sell in the UK or will ship to the UK. I'll post here when I get an answer.
