Alrighty... there are the pictures of my Vaja Balance in Midnight Navy case... gotta say, I love it. It was absolutely worth the wait. The case is just as nice as the website said it is. I'll definitely be buying from them again... for my Zune this time ;)

Anyway, let me add something constructive here.

The case fits the Pearl perfectly. There are holes where they should be... not a few centimeters away at all. The LED is lined up perfectly so I know when I have a call or email. The metal mesh over the microphone and earhole are a good touch. Another very nice thing is that the leather kind of curves inward at the top, preventing the Pearl from falling out... not that it would anyway as it fits very snugly. Also, the volume buttons are clearly marked on the side, as well as the shortcut button on the left side.

The color is just how it shows up on Vaja's site. It's not too dark, and certainly not too light. It's how I envisioned it, and how I wanted it.

Overall, it's definitely worth the money and time. I can't wait to do business with them again ;)

P.S.--I hope you all get yours soon! I want to see your colors!!

Can you please take a picture without the flash on?

I cant really tell the actual color as navy blue, it looks like light blue to me... or it is my vision problem? :(

the flash didn't affect the color. it's actually not a dark navy blue... it's more of a turquise-ish color. it's pretty nice though.

ok i'm having a bit of an issue.... my Vaja case is in, the pics are uploaded to Shutterfly, but for some strange reason, I can't copy and paste like I always do with other sites.... what am I doing wrong?

ETA....I even put the pics into my journal on another site and tried copy/paste from that, didn't work. Is there some special plug-in or smth that I need for this site?

I uploaded mine to my blog... then copied the hyperlink of just the picture to this site using the "Insert Image" icon. It pops up and asks for a URL.

If you still are having trouble, I can try to post screenshots of what I'm talking about when I get home tonight later around 10.

Good luck! I wanna see the red! ;)

thank you! I love the case, it's really nice! The only thing I wasn't too crazy about when I first got the case was the clip... i thought that maybe I should have spent the extra $16 to get the stainless steel one, as the plastic one i have seems a bit bulky.... Now that I've had it for a day, it's okay.. it IS sturdy and nicely made, happy with that...

Here are some pictures of mine:

Unfortunately I'm not pleased with the quality of Vaja cases. I think the fitment isn't as good as I thought it would be. You can see in the 7th picture that the left is more loose than the right. But then again, I'm a perfectionist when it comes to these things. Enjoy the pic, any comments are appreciated. Thank you

Default paint rubbing off?

I'm curious if you guys can tell weather the leather is painted or not? If I remember correctly there were a bunch of very unhappy people over at the treocentral forums when their Vaja cases started having their color rub off.

yes, the leather seems to be in fact painted and not DYED as I originally believe. I'm contacting them for a replacement or a refund.

Very disappointing.

wow, I started reading the "Unhappy" Vaja thread.......eek! I don't have time to finish reading it now, but definitely will later today... you got me all worried now! All if have to say is, they had better stand behind their products IF i start having a problem...for what they charge-it better work fine for years and years hehe

Any updates from the people who have used these cases for awhile now. I like the way they look but I am still up in the air about getting one. Just ordered 3 BSE's and am looking for a nice classy case for my red pearl for work and school.
