Beware the fake InCase!! - iPhone 3G

Spotted this on ebay. Looks almost identical to an InCase but the lack of branding on the back and in the eBay description leads me to believe it's fake. Of course, they don't actually try to tell you it's an InCase, but it's definitely designed to look like one. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DESIGN-SILICON...QQcmdZViewItem

I actually have this case, in a few different colors.
It is NOT an incase, but it is exactly like it.
These cases are extremely well made, and are not cheap in any way.
If you were considering the one from incase, i would get this one because it is the same thing at a much cheaper price.

Haha... Well whaddya know. Kinda similar to the situation with fake Crocs being just as comfortable as the real ones for a tenth of the price.... Has yours stretched with taking it on and off at all, because I know for a fact the real incase does.

I take my case of everyday, and there is slight stretching, but barely.
The case is not loose, it just isnt as tight as the first day and Iv had the case for months.

Ooh. My Incase is quite loose after about 5 or 6 months of use, so It'd be quite interesting to get one of those and see how it compared. Still, I've got my eye on a stick on leather back for it now anyway....

I dont think it is fake I think it just similar I would buy that one I dont think Incase worth that much

i think these cases are pretty BA. as for the incase, totally over priced. 30 bucks for a rubber case that defects 2 weeks after you get it, c'mon.
