I guess there's no way of buying it in North America? Why is all these HTC stuff only in the UK?

How exactly did you describe your cover as sucking? I'm pretty sure the camera lens cover on mine now is ruining my photos and i'd like a free cover to replace it

I tried calling them for HTC North America or Canada/US and they don't or won't have replacement covers and told me to buy online.

I bought one anyways, comes to $33 CAD total with shipping and all. Whatever, it's $33. My cover is fine actually it's just scratch on the lens a bit, not even where the camera shoots.

Telus had them for $10 a few months ago, not sure if they still do.

Edited to say: Checked their website, they have them for $20.

Well my cover is fine too but the lens cover looks terrible and mien has always been in a case so I have no idea how the micro scratches have got there!

Might just do what others have done and pop it out
