Tesco Direct have this in stock:
http://direct.tesco.com/product/default.aspx?r=215-4432

The image is pretty clearly showing this case from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Amazon-Kindle-Lighted-Leather-Cover/dp/B004SD1ZPY/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1325864705&sr=8-2

Hidden away in the specs of the Tesco one is says it doesnt have a light, yet the case in the image is the one with the light built in. Could be worth a shot to see what you receive, and at £20 less than the Amazon one too!

IMO still way to much to pay for a case for something that only costs £80 in the first place0

x2. I've just ordered this one from play.com for £5.99: http://www.play.com/Electronics/Electronics/4-/27561740/Kindle-4-Leather-Flip-Case-Black/Product.html
I doubt it's real leather for that price but it looks like it will do the job of protecting it from knocks and scratches. Don't forget Quidco too - 0.5% cashback :rotfl:Elite 5:2 #54 12/13 lbs (18 Jan) 1st Target :j0 -
I have that one Imposter, I quite like it though it's a bit heavy. But it feels ok and it protects the kindle well.0

I have the official Amazon case (like the one in your post but without the light) and the quality and fit is fab, did have a cheaper one and you could tell. I know its a pretty pricey case but it feels & looks nice, would recommend

Well I treated myself to the one in the picture with light from amazon, yes it is expensive but I factored it into the price of the kindle as I knew I would want it. It is excellent and does the job well for me as I do most of my reading in bed and was fed up of buying reading lights that were crap! If you can get it for the tesco price I would certainly recommend it! Take a screen shot of the pic on tesco website just in case

There are a fair few negative reviews concerning the fact that the new official kindle covers don't close properly, leaving the kindle unprotected...0

thanks just ordered one for my husband - can't believe someone would pay £30 for a case let alone £50!! :eek:0 -
It does say in the features section that it hasn't got a reading light0
-
If it doesn't come with the light but in the picture it does - is that not false advertising?0

Snap, I love my kindle cover with pull out light, yes it was expensive but I have had my kindle for over a year and use it daily so it was definitely worth the expense.0
