Krussell vs Vaja

[GoldKey]

Both cases seem to have the same basic features. I would like to know from some that have seem both for the Axim if it is worth the extra money for the Vaja given that it is about 3 times as much. I have a felling the differences may be something you can only percieve by holding it in person, so any insite would be appreciate.

I think the major difference is quality..


Vaja have better quality leather, i think that could make up the big cost difference in itself

though i have never seen either on an axim myself.

i still have plans for a vaja

You may also want to consider Sena cases - I have a few here for the Axim, and they're quite nice! Good quality leather, attractive design...

I bought a Vaja case for my iPaq and PC card sleeve and I was very disappointed with my case. It came apart at the seams within 1 month. I tried emailing Vaja but they never returned any of my emails. I have also owned the Krusell cases and I had no problems at all with them. It's too bad because the Vaja cases look nice but I feel they are poorly made.

Bizarre! I've owned three Vaja cases in my life and all of them are insanely sturdy. I know the old Vaja cases had a lot of issues with their belt clips and nubs, but apart from that my cases are absolutely excellent.

Wow - I've had Vaja cases that have been through hell and back, and I've never had any quality issues with them. Very surprising!

Took a look at the Sena, but, given I will soon have a $20 Vaja GC I picked the Vaja over the Sena. Then I saw the Krussell when getting ready to order the 3 piece Sync and Charge kit from Moonlight and saw how much cheaper it was for the overall same features. I guess I am looking for some quality comments on the Krussell from those that have it.

Jason, did you ever find out if the $20 Vaja Gift Certificates would be stackable? I would imagine that they are because really they are just coupons otherwise.

What's the Krussel?

Moonlight sells their stuff on e-bay to for even a better price. I had won the 3 piece sync and charge kit for 14.99+5.25 shipping. They have the Krussell on there for 19.99 with free shipping for your entire order. So if I get both, my shipping on the charger kit is free also, so really just a net costs of 14.74 to add the case to my order. Needless to say, I went ahead and did it.

I was really going to get the Vaja, but I went through their site and shipping was $18 plus sales tax for Florida residents. If Im really unhappy with the Krussell, I'll take a second look at the Vaja, but over $80 to get the basic case was just too much.

Will post my thoughts on the Krussell once it gets here.

I couldn't afford anything from Vaja even WITH a $20 coupon(part of the reason I went with the "lite" membership). An extra $15 just to be able to choose the color of your case? And $18 for shipping? FORGET THAT! I can't even bring myself to spend $30 on the Innopocket case.
