Same here, I could even omit that case and buy one on ebay later.

Ditto. I don't want the leather case enough to wait at least a month for it, maybe longer. This is disappointing...how hard is it to make a leather case? Apparently harder than I thought. But this is poor planning on HiBy's part, that they wouldn't have known this until now. I get that they probably waited until the last minute (or longer) to see if they could get things right, and realized it wasn't going to happen. If they want to look at how a leather case is done right, they should check out the Fiio ones...they are amazing.

First we had to wait on bags that most/all of us didn't want, now the leather case. The right thing to do would be to either send it later when it's "right," or let us cancel that part. Unfortunately, I'm not sure either one of those things will happen. I really hope we don't have any surprises in store.....has anyone seen the plastic case yet? :triportsad:

yes, what should have been done is ship the players first then the leather cases. It is not like its that expensive shipping from china. Second option, offer refund for those that no longer want the case, so they can get it later.

I guess I'm going to hold out a little longer and get the case.
It's really not been that long on the trip considering others on Kickstarter dont even fruit.
I've been stung a few times and still waiting for one thats taken over a year and still not completed.

I want the leather case, but I ordered a grey r3 as well and I’m backer #1049 so I guess I’m stuffed all ends up! Why they can’t ship the leather case later is, i suppose a cost issue?
But this sure puts me off crowd-funding altogether.

Hoping that they send it afterwards



I don't know about the other cases.. .but if they are sending the others = we'll have the clear / white case... so... it's just a "case" .... I rather like to receive this now and later receive "a leather case" than wait more months :frowning2: plus Customs awaits...... it's going to be a looooong journey for me...

delaying a month for leather case is not right, they could have shipped the dap now..
This make super early backer wait just because the chose leather case .. shipping + custom will easily take july end

Thanks for this. I was just thinking..when the case is there, then the coax cable is delayed. One thing at the time
