Well I tried to order a mini case from aliexpress but I couldn't get past the log in screen. Maybe another time.

I had the same question after seeing the above and did some hunting and found this cover at Amazon for $14.99, shipping included.
I love the Gecko Slimfit cover I have, but that extra little flap that keeps it closed is just slightly annoying to me. My Sony covers never had that so I'm not used to dealing with it. It works perfectly, it's a great cover, but I still have to be careful when closing the cover so the flap doesn't accidentally brush against the screen and trigger a page flip; and I often turn it back to fit between the 2 covers while reading, which I think will eventually wear it out prematurely, weakening that spot where it's bent drastically back. So I ordered one just now for myself. |

My case has got the August logo on it, otherwise it looks exactly the same as the Glo case. It is even available in the same colours. Currently available from AliExpress and sent from China, but no doubt some people will bulk buy and then they will end up on eBay.

Those slim magnets cover thingies for Glo are on UK Amazon and UK Ebay too. Same price - £10.99 -- at both.
I find myself quite tempted, just to have a case with the sleep function. I'm not sure how much protection they offer the Kobo though, and how easily the magnetic closure would pop open. Has anyone got one? |

I found the video from this ebay listing: http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MAGNETIC-...-/230994475551
I ordered one from aliexpress in pink for $12.50USD and will review it once I receive it! (soon hopefully) |
