    Default Where to find a cheap iPad2 Smart Cover and back case

    About 8 months ago I went to Thailand and purchased a knock-off smart cover and plastic cover for my iPad2 for R80. This has lasted quite well and taken a few knocks but is now cracked.

    Question: where can I find something like this locally? I refuse to pay near R800!! The smart cover is still fine, so I could make do with just a smart cover compatible plastic casing. Any ideas guys?

    dx.com or miniinthebox.com, don't be in a hurry for shipping

    Try your local fleamarket or China Mall. Bought mine at the Eastrand Fleamarket.

    Ebay - I bought one for $5

    I paid R400 for my Smart Cover (vinyl, not leather look) at the local Hypermarket (You can have any colour you like, as long as it is light blue or pink). There are some places (I'm looking at YOU, Dion Wired) that are charging the same price for both kinds, which is just wrong. Buy quality and you won't have to replace it again in another 8 months.

    I did buy an el cheapo Chinese BT keyboard and I regret it daily. The Logitech Ultrathin looks more and more attractive by the day.
