[MENTION=5091753]dbrandSkins[/MENTION] , care to reply on this pl0x?

Btw, site preview looks really good. I have a feature request(if you guys haven't implemented this already) , please allow debit card payment. I visit a site called mp4nation.com , they ship from HK, US and sometimes other location and they have debit card option. I'm talking about Indian debit card options specifically which includes secure code payment which is default/primarily used payment gateway in India. I hate to ask for credit card from friend again and again.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jay661972:
Nice, also i cant find the status of the order i place last week. Is there an option to check the status? Order# 92913
[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
Why don't you set up a paypal account using your debit card? You don't need to use a credit card with paypal. Then just pay using paypal and it will directly deduct it from your debit account.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Seadra:
Nope, Indian laws doesn't let indian users to keep money in their paypal or to pay via paypal, atleast with debit cards (except of ICICI Bank). Anyways, I am just suggestion to dbrands are they are doing a overhaul of their website, so might wanna do it exceptionally well keeping everyone happy.

[MENTION=5091753]dbrandSkins[/MENTION], excellent job on the responsive/mobile site! It looks really good.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Hey Seadra!

Glad to hear your order arrived so quickly this time around! The postal workers are probably getting used to delivering our stuff to your address lol. As for the cut needing "slightly more", we'll definitely take that into account and make sure that the closing cut is extended slightly. As for adding debit payments, the new site will support it.

Thanks, buddy! Without a doubt we're going to have the most magical eCommerce site on the entire Internet. Even with just the beta launch (which is essentially an overhaul of our current site with a few new products), it's going to be an entirely new experience when compared with our old site. We've got about 65 five-to-ten day features we have planned to build onto the beta over the coming months. Some of the ideas are really far-fetched, but our codeBots are always up to the task.

Thanks again for everyone's patience on the site overhaul. We know that the deadline keeps getting extended for (what feels like) forever, but the end is finally in sight. Stay tuned!
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Seadra:
Yay :D Yeah, definitely extend the cutting. Also, glad to hear that debit cards will be supported but are you sure it will be same like what mp4nation.com supports? Indian debit cards works in different manner, it's really not like the debit cards of other countries. Do tell your web dev to search on that :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] DrunkFuX666:
I have a small question for dbrand users, and dbrand itself of course... Which skin would you guys suggest and say gives the best grip...? I thought the carbon fiber would give good grip, but the Skinomi tech skin I'm currently using is not good at all in that aspect. Nowhere near as good as the grip of the naked phone.

Anyone tried the leather skin...?? How's that...?

[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
ICICI debit card = supported.

Bank of Maharashtra, HDFC, SBI, Union Bank of India, PNB, or Vijaya Bank debit cards are all unsupported by our transaction handler.

Any and all credit cards are always supported.

If you're really looking for good grip, we'd recommend holding off until the Matte series releases with our new site. It will have the most enhanced grip features due to the matte coating.

---------- Post added at 04:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:52 PM ----------

Shipped and should be with you any day now. While you await arrival, check out the how to apply tutorial video (already fast-forwarded to the relevant portion for your order)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Seadra:
What! :( :( Please Please support PNB :( Come on! >.<

Or change your transaction handler pl0x? as far as I have heard, people with ecommerce sites in India uses Billdesk or CitiBank handler (if they are called that, I don't know, m confused. ) But please support PNB!!!!!

That's the thing as I said earlier, ICICI doesn't uses "SecureCode" policy which has been mandatory from Reserve band of India. While other follows RBI's policy. I don't know how it works, but your transaction handler prolly doesn't support securecode. Please allow that :(

how do i go about making a custom skin?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] timothyung:
dbrand, with the new SIM slot cutout, would it be possible to make a piece that covers the sim tray itself to make it look less awkward?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] blazze11:
I think it's to small to get it fit perfect. It would be cool but I don't know if it's possible. You can try it by yourself, take the rest of the front skin (screen part) & try to cut a small piece that fill fit.

[MENTION=5091753]dbrandSkins[/MENTION] How about a neon green skin? That would look really nice with black devices.

And is it possible to get custom cutouts? I saw some skins with the Razer logo on facebook & don't know if the people done it by themselves.

Got my skins yesterday and it arrived way quicker than expected. Not sure if I should apply it yet since I always have my Spigen ultra fit(gold) or slim armor on.

Sorry for the super-afk, guys. Site is launching in the next 48 hours. Stay tuned.

Are you guys doing allover for the skins or just the back? Not sure I feel like fiddling with stickers all over the dang thing.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] Kendaihou:
Sorry man but I doubt dbrand will change their transaction handler. Simply cause it will take a long time , they will have to change their whole transaction interface and it will cause a backlog of orders cause won't people wont be able to pay. I don't think any transaction handlers in Canada even accept or do business with Indian banks for debit cards but then again I wouldn't know. The cons outweigh the pros if they are going to change. You will just have to stick with credit cards. Sorry Man.

'This update is for complete site look's overhaul, might as well do it right. no? :'(

Won't lie. I've been waiting for this new site launch for wayyyyy too long.

I still don't understand why we can't order the new materials until you go live.....
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LosLakers:
Any coupon for the launch of the new site? :D
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Seadra:
still not launched. I don't know why they even tweeted 2 days back that it was the last day for old website. They still are having the delay :/ disappointing.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] LosLakers:
From a previous post, I've read that the launch day is today. I don't know where you live, but I'm imagine that for Europe the release of the new site is set for 4pm or later caused by the time zone.

EDIT: look the replies on the dbrand's Facebook page
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Seadra:
in their twitter, they twitted this https://twitter.com/dbrandSkins/status/460933002722177025 on 29th 5:36AM (IST) and it's 6PM IST 1st May. They are already running late for about ~36hrs

Trying to buy skins for tablet plus smartphone but the cart empties out once I'm done with one? I clicked on add another and added a couple of different skins from the same type...but then when I click Tablets...the cart is empty.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Add Another vs Add to Cart

Add Another = Build multiple Kits on the shop page for that device before adding them all to your cart.

Add to Cart = Adds them to your actual cart. It'll scroll you back to the top and display a dismiss-able success bar once they've been added to your cart.

Hey [MENTION=5091753]dbrandSkins[/MENTION], how can I order the colored X for Nexus 5? You know, the special one you mentioned a while back.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] matique:
Just ordered a carbon fibre back with matte sides for my white nexus 5. Can't wait to get it!!

I wonder how long it'll take to ship to Singapore though? Any Singaporeans here with experience?

And dbrand any real life photos of the matte skin?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] DrunkFuX666:
The new site looks great... Really nice...!

But I agree with the above... There should be a super discount for the new sight :D

Also I didn't really see many new skins for the N5. Also I didn't notice the enhanced grip skin you had mentioned to me previously...

I received an answer in less than 24 hours

[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Sorry about that. Postage went up $2 due to the rate hikes with Canada Post and the realization that most customers order enough product to bring the price of stamps alone to between $3.60 and $5.90 per order. Coupons haven't been implemented yet, but we're working on that today and tomorrow. We couldn't find any decent modules to integrate, so ended up having to write it ourselves. It's almost complete.

The colored x skins will be available soon, the first major feature addition is going to be a "customs" section of the site where users can pick from a curated set of custom pieces that we'll offer.

See above two answers (ツ)

Shipping went up due to the increase of postage cost in Canada. Tracked shipping is just a bonus option, you don't by any means have to select it. As for the debit card not being accepted, that's totally on PayPal. We can only use the most trusted transaction handler in the world. If they don't support it, there really isn't much we can do.

All previous accounts are gone, the site you see is built on a new platform with a totally fresh database. On the plus side, the account you make now will soon have a login area where you can view past orders, make adjustments on your acct, and even on the orders before they ship. Working on making the account pages sexy today and tomorrow.

Coloured X skins are coming soon, we're still working on the customs section before it goes live. It'll feature a lot more than just that one custom piece. It'll be a collection of dbrand-designed customs offered in limited runs. Gonna be awesome.

I'll pass along the discount idea to the Boss. If there's a celebratory discount, it would be site-wide and require us to directly edit all the prices of items, as there's no coupon functionality on the site right now. We'll see what he says.

Maybe you can post a preview picture here.

[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Indeed! See below.

We're still deciding which will be released next: Blue Carbon, or Bamboo, but below is a pic of the Bamboo-style material.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Seadra:
Aww man, I hate to wait :( waited for 3-4 months for the new website to launch and now have to wait for more days to order customized skins for Moto G and Nexus 5 and to wait even more for discounted prices or coupons if they become a feature soon. Kinda disappointed.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] reaperofwaywardsouls:
Any actual pics of the new matte skins?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Kendaihou:
Blue carbon is really nice but I prefer the bamboo better. I've been itching for a new wood skin.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] walpurgisnacht30:
Well, I'm Indonesian actually, but maybe you can take it as a comparison and still in the same South East Asia region tho lol

My last order takes about two and a half weeks. Maybe it would be faster if in Singapore since it looks like the postal service is better than my country :p
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Sorry man. Don't count on a custom piece any time soon, though (especially if you're already disappointed with the lack of coupons... customs are not cheap). We're getting hundreds more orders per day than we were anticipating... probably won't start up the customs again for a while.

Both pics are below

---------- Post added at 12:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------

That's probably the right call. I'll confirm in a few days, but likely it'll be Bamboo first.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] jason.912:
Awesome. I finally orderer the matte white I have been after for about a month.

One website bug I wanted to let you guys know about. When I added a skin, and checked out with PayPal. It went to PayPal before adding shipping, when returned to complete the order it would error out and fail. But now the site included the shipping total, so on the second go around to PayPal and back to final checkout it would work.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] DrunkFuX666:
Are these matte skins the same enhanced grip skins you had previously mentioned? Or are those something else...??

Also will these matte skins have the colored X as well, as the pic posted was of the leather skin I believe...?

[Nexus 5 Accessories] mmmmBACON:
"Blue carbon is really nice but I prefer the bamboo better. I've been itching for a new grass skin."

Just correcting you there bud! :)

I think the Bamboo should come out first as well. I like the Blue CF (and thanks again for early access) but having another nature option would be nice.

Maybe you might want to consider modifying the "Wood" heading to something else when you eventually do put the Bamboo up, because technically it is a grass. Then you have the option to put whatever plant based patterns the robots come up with next under that heading.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Kendaihou:
You're right!!! Bamboo is a type of grass and not wood.

[MENTION=5091753]dbrandSkins[/MENTION] hey guys I'm gonna order one for my wife's nexus 4 and one for my nexus 5. Any promo codes available?
[Nexus 5 Accessories] dbrandSkins:
Unfortunately not, man. There's no coupon feature (or add-on) available on the extremely custom build of our site. Our devs are working on coding an module to accept coupons, but it's complex due to the structure of our products and shopping cart. Could take up to another 2 weeks before coupons are implemented. Pebble skins will release on Monday, so stay tuned for that!

Also, just in case anyone was planning a move to the OnePlus, we were accepted as one of the 100 to receive the device early as a part of the "Smash the Past" program. We demolished an iPhone 5s this morning. Video will go live tomorrow documenting the smash. We'll have the device very soon, at which point we'll make skins for it. If anyone wants some photos or feedback on the device, let me now and I'll post up a mini-review once it's at the lab.
[Nexus 5 Accessories] spicydicy:
I'll take the oneplus if you don't want it. They didnt put me on the list. :(
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Seadra:
I already knew that custom skins are not cheap ;)

Anyways, will order once the coupons or some kind of offers pop's up. I desperately want the new skin, but I can hold myself now as I have already spent like ~100$ for just skins on previous orders. Ping me up when the offer goes live. And best of luck with the new site. Just yesterday I was thinking if dbrand can get acknowledged by OEM's and they can ship the device to dbrand atleast a month before the device goes for official launch, that would be so awesome.. no? ;) we would be able to order the skin as soon as device is launched. Oh well, here's hoping :)
[Nexus 5 Accessories] Charlus97:
Well, fake or not ? The OnePlus team emailed the 100 "winners" and said that they don't want them to destroy a phone but to give it to charity and to make a video on YouTube to explain why they were ready to destroy a phone...

It's kinda to late for that...
