I thought it was outrageous? Is this what everyone pays?

The best place to order is off ebay, you can get all the same color as jp and more for much less.

Goto www.sw-box.com the screen protectors jp sold me were the same ones swbox sells. I wouldn't be surprised if the parts are the same. I've had the best experience with swbox parts. Posted via RS Mobile | |

I have a 9000. And lately I have been looking through some ebay housings and they are really dirt cheap compared to what stores can do. $5-20 for a set of housing but you just have to DIY it. Youtube already has some vids and the DIY procedure seems pretty easy. Only thing I am worried about is that if the fitment is right, quality, and flawless process of DIYing it.
Stores cost like $65+. Thats like $20 for the *best quality housing assumed* and $40 of work for 1 hour tops. Pretty rip.
Any advice on getting housing and stuff?

Whatever you do..NEVER buy housings from eBay. This is coming from experience. I've ordered from eBay users in the past and they all end up being the shittiest quality ever.
Just buy it from sw-box. It might take awhile for it to arrive, but the fitment and quality is worth it.
You have been warned.

China. They use EMS which is pretty fast, but it gets stuck at US/Canadian customs due to their packaging "style"...it actually looks like a freaking bomb is inside LOL

|  I don't see $7 shipping. Maybe I have to login. I used the shopping cart and went straight to Estimate Shipping costs which gave me UPS/Fedex/DHL only. I'll take a month shipping, I'm not in a hurry

It should give you a shipping option called "airmail". I haven't used sw-box in awhile, so things may have changed.

This happens to alot of my blackberry newb friends that haven't/know how to upgrade their phone  . Try upgrading the OS and things should run smoothly.
I'm running OS 6 on my 9700 and switching apps is a breeze.
If you need any assistance on upgrading your phone, don't be afraid to ask  | |
