Anyone know where to buy replacement eVic USB port covers?

[cool breeze]

Does anyone know where to buy replacement Joyetech eVic USB port covers? The list price is only $0.10, but no one seems to have them available. I have searched and checked with quite a few retailers and two distributors.

I knew the hinge on the port cover was flimsy before I got my eVic and tried to be as careful as possible, but it still broke in the out position within days and eventually had to be amputated. The now-detached port cover still fits in the port and it has only fallen out once in two months, but I know it is just a matter of time before it gets lost. I can see from the ECF forums and elsewhere that there are more than a few others in the same situation. It is a regrettable small lapse in design/manufacturing by joyetech, but I still love my eVic.

Please share any information you have on where to obtain these little things.

I wish I can tell you.... I came across those port covers a few days ago and I'm trying to look through my history on which site I saw it at.

But I'll let you know if I come across it again.

Yes I seen them also, along with all other parts that may be needed. Don't remember where went back looking but didn't find it. So they are available some one will stumble across it.

I just found this

BestByte.net - Discount Computer Hardware & Reliable Service

I'm not sure If the port on the Evic is micro or mini, but both are offered here. I never dealt with this company so I have no input on that.

EDIT= You'll have punch "usb port covers" into the search tab at top of page

Looks to be the Micro

I got so annoyed with my USB cover that I tore it off. It seems to have come off in one piece. If I could give it to you I would.

LOL - no worries Dax, my post was directed toward myself, not you. Sorry, the Internet can be misinterpreted so easily

Honestly, I didn't notice the little USB thing - it's black on black - just didn't see it, but I do NOW
