Looking for good leather case for V551

I need to replace my leather case for my V551, and I need some feedback. This is the one I have now:

Problem is, the plastic clip began slowly disintegrating shortly after I got it. Now, it's to the point that the phone occasionally falls off because the little round part of the clip (the part attached to the leather case) has also started chipping off around the edges. I'm a little surprised and disappointed, since this was a Motorola OEM case. I guess I expected better quality than from a third party.

Did I maybe get a dud, or have others also seen this? I need a replacement now, and I like the design of this case, but I don't want to get another one and have this happen again. I sorta like this one from Cingular, although it's a tad expensive:

Anyway, I'm not hard on my phones, so having this case fall apart is a little surprising, so I want to make sure I can find a nice one that will last. Any help would be appreciated.

that cingular one looks like crap. mine fits it like a glove. it doesnt have that big gap it just has cuts for the screen and the camera i got in a cingular store. it was 15.00 dollars.

get one of the body gloves, thin, proper fit, good protection--take the clip button off, its even better.

Thanks guys. I ordered a case off Amazon. I guess I'll see how it works out.

BTW, plane, I've used a Body Glove case on my old i550plus. They are quite nice, especially at cushioning the phone.
