Im looking to buy a glass protector for my note 3, leaning towards spigen tr or mime feather but cant find any sellers on amazon or ebay. I dont want to buy from thr website or their amazon or ebay pages. Im looking for a third party private seller but cant find any listings. Why arent there more sellers for the note 3 as there are with other phones?

The Note 3, although somewhat popular, just isn't a good money maker for certain companies to go in on in terms of accessories.
A lot of companies just don't see the profit margin being big enough considering are phone isn't HUGE compared to other Android devices.

I bought a cheaper ($7) ultra thin tempered glass from ebay months ago, and it's been holding up like a champ! I even had my first drop, on screen side, the other week and it protected it just fine.
Ive seen those on ebay but have been skeptical since its so cheap. For yours have any bubbles formed and is it easy to use with the s pen?

Here's a pic:
No bubbles at all (although, the pics from my Note 8 don't really do this justice), but I did notice a few very minor scratches (but nothing to worry about or noticeable unless you're looking for them). Hopefully, the pic I took with my Note 8 gives you a decent idea of how strong this inexpensive ebay purchase has held up.

I got my Spigen from Amazon.
That seems slightly on the pricey side if you ask me. I really wouldn't want to spend that much on screen protectors
It was. But these aren't cheap phones either. I can't speak to any other tempered glass screen protectors as I haven't tried them, but I am happy with the two Spigens I've bought so far. I'm sure there are less expensive alternatives out there. Couldn't ever use a plastic protector again.That seems slightly on the pricey side if you ask me.

My pic above should show enough for the inexpensive ones to hold just as much use as the expensive name brand tempered glass.

Yeah I never really thought of dropping a lot on a Glass Screen Protector, who knows maybe I will at some point, but with all the hassle I have at putting the cheap ones on I don't even want to risk ruining one haha

This is the best deal you'll get right now:

Just bought 2 for the G3. Didn't need it for my Note 3, but you can get two (2) of them for $8 (free shipping and no tax for me in L.A., California). The deal requires that you buy at least 2.

Yeah, I noticed that right away, after I had ordered the G3 glass protector. I already had for my Note 3, so I didn't check right away. Wish I would've seen it earlier, to notify everyone that had been holding out on buying.

The ones that come with the device?
Those were pretty good for me, I am still using those and they seemed to have pretty decent build quality and work well for me

Curious, why do you not like the glass getting slippery? I'm guess you don't use swiftkey flow or swype?

Haha I am so glad you mentioned those types of keyboards, because they are primarily the reason why I love the slippery screen.
It could also make it more of a dropping hazard to have a slippery screen for some people. I know especially without a case, since the back isn't the best when it comes to grip, and if you have a slippery screen, could cause some drops.

Right there with you. The tempered glass screens has made me extremely happy because it's almost smoother than the direct glass and I use swiftkey flow all the time.
I figured it had something to do with potential for dropping, but I guess I never thought of the screen being an issue, since I typically would hold my phone around the edges, when just carrying (and not using it)...or grip it tightly enough, until I put it in my pocket.

I am always extremely careful with my devices, even when drinking (which surprises me sometimes haha), but I rarely drop them and even if I do it's usually just onto my face when I am laying on the bed with it above me

LOL...me too, DC. I'm pretty OCD about my devices, which is why I never was a big fan of big cases. The tempered glass protectors have given me an extra ounce of comfort, while not losing the feel of regular glass (as compared to some of the spongy/sticky screen protectors).
You're right. I use SwiftKey but type each letter. Slippery might be perfect for swype but it causes me to slip off the key I hit sometimes. I was just surprised that it is more slippery than the native screen. I thought glass is glass. The vzw glass screen protector is also more reflective than native so it is harder to use in daylight
It says fingerprint resistant on box. It isn't.
I don't think it is more likely that I would drop phone. I don't hold phone by gripping screen. Nobody does.
