Default Don't BB without an InvisibleShiled

Please Login to Remove!

I received mine on Friday for my 8700g. $11.95 shipped to my door from here www.shieldzone.com


They don't have one for the g only the c so I had to trim a tiny bit. Other than that, it is bt far the Greatest of All Time. A liftime gaurentee(without modification) and super duper crystal clear. I will definately oreder 2 more this week for my 2 Razr'(me and the wife)

IS will give you a new one if you ever need to talke yours off. BSE will not. Thats the only reason BSE can give you the great deal they give you.

Yes they do.

Here's how I look at it.

Same product.

You can buy 3 full sets of The Best Skin Ever for the price Invisible Shield charges for one. Now I know Invisible shield comes with a replacement policy but how often are you actually going to replace it? Once it's installed, and if it's installed properly, there isn't much reason to replace it.

Even if you buy two sets of the Best Skin Ever and do replace it one time you've saved money.

Just my opinion.

WTF? I ordered from bse last week and was told they didn't have a 8700g skin yet though they still ran my card.

If they have one I should have been the first to get it.

Ordered my skin from the Best Skins Ever on April 4th (2006). I am still waiting for delivery. Since this particular order was being sent to Germany, I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and ordered a new skin to a friend's address in Miami. That second order was placed on the 14th of April. Still no sign of either of the deliveries. Very unimpressed. When I inquired as to the status of my order they really didn't have an answer(it was Paypal's fault apparently). One thing I can say for them was that the President of the Company did respond right away.

Do the makers of the Invisible Shield deliver on time? If so, I would pay the premium to get their product b/c it doesn't sound as if BestSkins have their act together. I may be the exception, but as every day passes I get more and more irritated. They told me at first that it should take 7-10 days to ship their product to Germany. How can it take 7-10 days to ship an envelope to Germany???! This is the 21st century. They obviously chose the cheapest delivery service they could find and thanks to that, I am still sitting here waiting for the day that I scratch my brand new (or was brand new when I ordered) BB. Then I can use my BestSkin to keep my scratch shiny and new. Thanks BestSkins...

I have an invisible shield for my PSP, my iPods (Nano 4 GB and video 60GB), my wife's Nano (2GB) and I've ordered one for my 7130e.

I love the invisible shield products.

Finally got mine - they gave me an extra for waiting. Was able to install it myself (much to my surprise). Very happy.

I applied the Best Skins to my 8700g,

I'm sure the protection will last..
one small complaint about their shipping
Best Skins charges $2.00 to ship in the US.

that's all well and good, but it arrived in a standard envelope with 0.39 postage.
I find that a bit insulting, I don't mind paying the price for the product, but don't charge $2 for 0.39
I would rather they up the price for the whole thing by $2.00 and don't charge shipping.. just my 0.02

I'm sure international is a different story.

Does anyone know what model would be closest to the 7510 in screen size since they do not offer any products for the 7510?

Most everyplace does that though - did you ever look what you get charged for shipping then take that exact box to UPS and see what it really costs to ship it.

You also have to consider that they have to buy the envelope, pay somebody to stuff them, etc. - it all goes into shipping and handling.

And invisible shield offers free shipping thru USPS.

I agree. Most people don't take that into consideration when they are considering S&H.

I am also eagerly awaiting my Best skins ever as I still have the plastic on my 8700g's screen.

The recommended screen protectors should be in a sticky thread somewhere if they're not, yet
