My first cell cover was an official Verizon blue rubber and it cost 14 dollars on sale. I thought the price was ridiculous, but I didn't mind because the cover was so nice. Unfortunately it broke and I vowed to never pay that much for a piece of snap on plastic again. I just received my Eforcity cover, and it is just as cool and the price was a fraction of what I paid before. It looks more durable, but even if it breaks, at least I didn't pay 14 dollars.
