87$ bucks total. D

please don't [b124b3bd1f3]dammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmn[/b124b3bd1f3] me! p

if i'm getting a 500 photo ipod free, i mind as well buy a nice cover for it, right? 8)

The Vaja cases are of very high quality, but their design allows the clickwheel to get dirty, or the top be scratched.

A skin offers more protection, but a Vaja might protect it from a drop better, provided the top of the iPod doesn't hit the ground. ;)

I went with a skin AND a leather case that would fit a skinned iPod, and I think that's the best all-around option.

Way too much money in my opinion.
And it looks like the top of the unit is exposed. But the quality does look nice.

Not if you rub them with talcum powder and rub off the excess. It's like it was never sticky now. )

I thought they were based in Argentina.

My bad, lol. I completely forgot. I spoke to someone from Spain, but they were from Argentina.

Smart move, although the top is still exposed. o

Vaja's always look like a snug fit, but I wonder if an iPod in an eXo3 would fit? That might be a nice mix.

I was looking at the contour showcase but it only comes in black and white

Okay, so I bought the stm ipod cocoon. I'll probably use a lajo skin with it though.
There is a nice review here
