iPad leather case £5 + pp

Spotted this deal on KGB deals. I did quick here first but couldn't see anything. Seemed a good deal postage is a bit heavy but I expect it is worth it.
£5 plus £5.99 postage. I have seen some on ebay but not sure

What do u guys think

    It's not leather...it's PU Leather. Shame, as there's some lovely colours.

    Thanks, I didn't realise that pu leather wasn't real leather. Some good alternatives thank you

    Just a word of warning regarding these cases.....they often don't fit the iPad properly! I have had 2 of these and both times they didn't fit, you had to really fight to get the case over the corners which resulted in the corner eventually splitting and the iPad falling out. Not worth the money, bought an incipio case instead!

    If they don't do the job properly then not worth money but I suppose the only way is to try them. If there from top seller then hope they are ok. Are iPads different in size

    I'm not sure if there is a size difference between the iPad 2 and the current model. We have the original iPad and the current one. For £5 I guess if you have not tried them before then it's worth a shot.

    If you want a case at a reasonable price go for an Invision great quality http://www.amazon.co.uk/Invision®-iPad-Retina-Display-Case/dp/B007UPUXL4 you can get them for other versions of iPad with a quick search on amazon.

    Great reviews, I had one of the cheaper ones bit much prefer this one, similar to the official apple one only better
  • My mum and dad have this and it's rubbish,my opinion not theirs I hope they don't read this :eek: !!
