Good luck. The official Amazon cases (with or without light) are definitely overpriced, at least in the UK.

That's the reason my mother decided to make and sell them. She thought others will be getting kindles as gifts from loved ones and would want to keep them protected without having to spend a lot. In fact she wanted to make the price lower but after seeing the time she put into them I told her that she should price them such that she's properly compensated for her efforts.

I don't have a kindle but I wanted a little pouch for my palm pre and offered to pay her so that I could be her first customer but she wouldn't take my money smiles. I'm sure she could make a business making little bags for the various gadgets we have. I was thinking I'd make a page where individuals could make custom size requests for little bags for their gadgets.

Thank you for the comment.

Agreed, but then again I brought one as at the time their were no alternatives on the market with a light (unsure if this is still the case - excuse the pun). The light is rather a nice feature that I doubt I'd go back on and they're solidly built.

That said, the OPs cases do look good and appear to be good value for money.
