I don't think it will happen now, but I could definitely see them running a contest like that in the future! I think that would be an excellent idea!! Imagine some of the creative responses they would get!! I can't wait for it to arrive - should be here this week sometime. Speck is having an issue with their new website and people claiming their GGB case. (PS - Hope I didn't offend you with my 'coupon' comment I didn't want it to come off like I was downplaying the problem or being jerky) Keep me in the loop about what happens, I'm curious to see how they respond. The $50 (or however much the case cost) is a lot less than the impact your negative experience will have on their business! They've already successfully alienated you, but I'm sure you won't have nice things to say about CaseMate/the DIY case if friends, family or other iMore users ask. If they're smart, they'll give you a refund. I didn't realize just HOW peeved off you were about case until now. Pink, I'm a marketing guy and let me tell you, if CaseMate has any marketing, customer service or business acumen, they'll send you a refund. I'm sure they would need your permission as well being you created it. I wonder if the spark you submitted will be put into production for a case Speck may make. Ever.Ĭongrats on your Golden Gate cs flip case you won and Happy (early) Birthday as well. I don't plan on purchasing another case from them again. Well I got an email today and apparently my spark was ranked as one of the top 75 and I won a free Golden Gate Bridge CandyShell Flip case!! My birthday is on Sunday, so I guess this is an early gift haha! iLive, I don't want a discount coupon from them. TBH, I just threw something together quick and kind of sloppy because they were giving away 15% off coupons to anyone who submitted a spark. It was just paint on a palette in the shape of their logo. I threw together an EXTREMELY lame 'spark' (their logo).

I entered into their 'make your spark' contest this past weekend. Maybe Case Mate will give you a coupon code or something for your defect? I can only imagine how strange the circles on the back vs ovals on the side look.

I'd definitely be angry too - the 'dots' (er, ovals) look really strange on the side.

The color is still nice, but I bet you were disappointed when it wasn't what you wanted.
