Just posting this for other recent One V converts. I received mine today and these are nicely made. The back is a neat two tone; half is the same material as the back plate, the other a higher gloss plastic. The sides have grip texuring. And of course, it fits the phone perfectly.
I just don't know HOW on Earth China manages to do it! Surely they are cheaper to produce, but it almost feels like I'm stealing them!
I paid $7 for what looks like the same case last week from Amazon.
Fit is perfect, and I really like the TPU material (not squishy silicone). Its tough and grips well but not rubbery.
In for another color for backup.

^ word to the wise. when it comes to accessories eBay almost always undercuts Amazon 3rd party sellers. one reason is Amazon charges steeper commissions.

Woohoo! Thanks. Used a gift card to get the phone, and now apparently had some eBay buck for the case!

In for one... For about a buck, I'll see if it fits my Venture. Price was only ninety-four cents. Seems I had six cents of E-Bay bucks left on tap. ( Is that an oxymoron? )

I purchased one from this eBay seller on 12/02/2012. As of today, I still have not received the item. Shipping is slow and not reliable.

I got one from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007ZTT3KW/ref=oh_details_o01_s... kinda like these. I was very pleased for 3.99. One thing to note, these cases usually cover up the indicator light, but if you can live with that, no probs. Might get me a backup with this one, thanks OP!

These are total junk,
Dont fit snug at all and are cheaply made.
Not to mention it takes forever to get this shipped via HK post.

The fat wallet effect...LOL Shipping is now listed at $1.99. I have bought quite a few of these cases from Hong Kong and have never had a problem with them. They are the same ones I see in the mall kiosks for 3x the price if not more. Just do a search on eBay for any phone brand and you will find these inexpensive cases. Amazon isn't even in the race as a comparison. eBay has far larger selection and better prices.

PS...This is also a way for them to rack up good feedback. They sell an item at or below cost to boost their ratings.

Only order these from here if you don't want or need them this winter. If you are buying them for someone else plan on giving them as an Easter or Spring gift.
I Bought 4 on 12/4. Estimated delivery at time of purchase - 12/19 to 12/29. Checked yesterday and message posted on eBay's purchase history stated - "expect delay" new arrival expected time frame - 1/22 to 1/29.
I purchased other cheap items from China on eBay since then and it has all arrived - within a 2 to 3 week window.
Don't expect to get these soon. Don't make the mistake I did, don't tell anyone else you ordered from "hkiron-uk". I told my wife that they were ordered and she asks about them every day now.

I told seller he ought to lower price if they want to continue to get the fatwallet love.
$ that's 11% markup sir, plus a hard back. TPU works extremely well.

I just received mine today. Fortunately, I only ordered one. It does not fit my One V, and the cutouts (such as for the micro USB cable) are in the wrong places. Good it was only $1.
EDIT: That was a bone-headed post from me. I just realized that in my tired, hungry state, I was trying to put the case on my Optimus Elite! I just popped it on my One V and it fits like a glove.
In retrospect I wish I had the option of paying $3 instead of $1 and being assured the guys who made it were paid a living wage and had health care. Just saying.
