Hello,

I've recently been looking for a case for my Hero, I found

FlexiShield Skin For The HTC Hero - Black

The flexishield, but this seems quite expencive, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience/opinions on the ones floating around on eBay:
NEW FLEXISHIELD GEL SKIN CASE COVER POUCH FOR HTC HERO on eBay (end time 19-Oct-09 23:19:47 BST)
FLEXISHIELD GEL SKIN CASE COVER FOR HTC G2 TOUCH HERO on eBay (end time 15-Oct-09 12:23:43 BST)

Could these be the real thing or fakes that aren't as good?
 
I have the first one if those you listed on ebay...it fits perfectly and looks great, you wouldn't know it wasn't an official cover..coupled with a HTC screen protector (dont buy cheap ones of these cos they are awfull compared to the HTC ones) it protects your investment without losing its sleek looks

Hi there,

I bought a flexishield gel case from ebay...cost me about 4 Quid I think. Let me assure you that they are fantastic. They're custom moulded to fit the Hero perfectly. All holes are cut in JUST the right places, and nothing is restricted at all.

No, I'm not a salesman from eBay...I'm just a user who purchased this great bit of kit! :D

I'm waiting for my new HTC Hero to arrive tomorrow and thinking about protection.
Does anyone have experience using InvisibleSHIELD Full Body Protector for HTC Hero?

I had the first version of the Samsung Instinct...didn't care for the phone, but I did by the invisibleSHIELD for it. Freaking loved it!!!! It adds some grip to the phone's surface, and does a fabulous job of protecting it. I'm getting my Hero in 2 days, and already made the purchase!!! I would recommend it!
