    [Accessories] Uniform leather/textile sleeve for phones/tablets/e-readers in different sizes from sa

    I like sleeves, don't get why most tablets and e-readers get useless book/like covers nowadays not to mention ugly plastic phone cases. There is still a market for a nice (but not tooooo expensive) leather or even canvas sleeve line. I understand most companies make only two sizes iPad and...

    Rakuten and being hit or not by customs
