V180 Housings

Anyone know where in the UK or Ireland where you can purchase covers for the
V180? - of course I have been to Ebay but there seem to be quite a lot of
covers in the US for the V180 (saw a beautiful polished chrome one!) and
there are some in China but cannot see any in the UK. Shame they are hard to
come by in this part of the world.

I am also disappointed that Motorola decide to bring out a mobile phone with
one of the selling/marketing points for the V180 is that you can easily
change the cover to give the phone a new look but when it comes down to it
and you want to order one from their (UK) website no phone covers actually
exist for the V180 :-(

Don't let the borders stop you from ordering. I'm in the US and have
ordered a lot of stuff that's shipped from HK and I usually have it
within a week.

I am just wondering if things like Customs would hold things up if the cover
came from HK to me in Ireland and the delivery charge from HK to Europe
would most prob be dear.

Can't speak for Ireland customs/duties, but the value is so low that
duty isn't typically collected in the US. They send stuff 1st Class
Airmail and shipping is usually just a few dollars and quoted on ebay.
The package is usually marked "sample" or "gift" which gets it through
customs faster.

Well that's good then I might order one from HK so. - now I wonder if those
non-original covers fit the phone good that's another story.
