just ordered mine this weekend, since the apple store NEVER has any..

i've heard pretty awesome things about it so hopefully i love it XD.

i was also wondering, does anyone own the white one? because every time i go to the apple store, it seems like none have been sold lol.
and i can see why, it looks terrible.

I have the black agent case and I'm happy with it. It's solidly built and fits the iphone snugly--no chance of it popping off if I drop it.
I also have the crystal film from the apple store to cover the touchscreen front.

Regarding the white version of the case, I was planning on buying it based on what it looked like on the agent website. When I saw it in person though, it didn't appear nearly as nice and looked like it might show scuff marks from dark objects like a painted table.

On the other hand, the white case is stickier than the black case and comes with a natural musty scent.

I can only find the "Natural" Color of this case. I loved the case in the store, but not the color. I'm not a leather holster case fan, and the rubber cases catch my pants going in and out of pocket. I need a hard case, so it slides into pocket easily. I've searched eBay as well. Any links for the best place to buy and approximately how long it took to receive? Thanks!

i had to get my Agent18 black directly from agent18 because Apple doesn't like to have ANY in stock...

it took roughly 4~5days and it was CHEAPER than in the store.

Call your local Apple store and ask when their new inventory comes in. It's probably the same day each week. I bet if you called on that day and they just received a new shipment they'd hold one for you.

this is a good idea but most people in the apple store have no idea when they get shipments in. i asked a genius one day(he's there every time i go so i figured he would know) when they might be getting some in and he said "i have no idea, we just get a call when the shipment is in".

oh how informative they are :gasp:

apple DOES sell the black ones in the store, but i see that now they don't even have them online. and good luck getting on in-store.

i also noticed something really strange. the 'natural' colored case at apple's online store says "3-5 weeks"...

HOLY CRAP

TKO's Official Review of: Agent 18(black)

I finally gut it after numerous attempts and my overall rating: amazing.

*keep in mind that i just got it so i really have not had tons of time to find out the cons*

Appearance:
i really love the way this looks on the iPhone. it fits SO perfectly and does not move on the iPhone itself at all. the plastic they used seems really durable and it seems pretty scratch-proof(dont take my word for that, i really didnt try too hard to damage it very much). any scratches i did make were easily buffed out

Front:
the only thing abuot the front that bugs me a little is that the crome-bezel on the corners, btu its really not that big of a deal.

Back:
the back is pretty cool because it has like 2 things on it. there is a picture of a tree(im guessing to show that it is eco-friendly) and also their logo Agent 18. normally i would be kindof turned off by these unnecessary logos but i tink the name Agent 18 is pretty badass so i don't care.

Around the buttons:
they left quite a bit of room aroud the buttons which is nice.

Random:
i have heard that this case scratches the chrome bezel but i haven't noticed this at all, maybe in time.

Durability:
i dropped it on purpose to see if it would come off and thankfully it didn't and it did its job.

I had to ask an employee to get mine out from the stock room. They had them, but didn't have room to put them out....

if i were to get this case, i'd get it in black. and i'd be tempted to paint it silver like this guy (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?p=4368585#post4368585)...

you're lucky since when i asked they said, "we're out".
:angry:

o well, at least i have one now.

and as for the painting it, it sounds like a good idea but i'd be scared to for the reason that it would just come off. i would hate it if the paint came off even the littlest bit..

i get annoyied with the littlest things XD

heh - that's the second half. That same MORNING I asked in THE SAME STORE if they had them. They said no. That night, I called that store, and got someone else. They said they had them and they've had them for a while (I was sure to ask, did you get them today?). When back that night, and got it. The employee I got didn't know they had them, I had to tell him to go to the back b/c I had called.

sounds like a stabbing is in order..

sometimes i feel like if i'm not buying a MacBookPro then no one seems like they want to help..

but that's not always the case..

I just got my black Agent18 case today. It is awesome. Feels great in your hand while talking on the phone. I ordered mine from the Agent18 website directly and it took 4 days to get here. You won't be disapointed with this case!



I've learned alot from searching and browsing the forums here! Thanks.
