I am hoping someone can help me out.

Does anyone have a broken K1 that they would sell me the battery cover from?

Thanks in advance.

I already tried Amazon and they said they didn't keep these in stock and since it was an exterior damage, they could not replace it.

Here is a broken kindle on ebay being sold for parts. Hope that helps

no luck there. <sigh>

Will keep looking - if anyone has any ideas or comes up with a suggestion, I would appreciate it!!

Try Allsion below who was selling a Tree of Life Cover.  She had a broken Kindle screen.  She might be able to help you.

OK, now I'm curious... How did you break the back cover?

I couldn't find this person as "Allsion" or "Allison" - could you give me a link to that thread?

thanks!

LOL - a friend was using it and took off the back and forced it back on and broke twp of the tabs and now it is loose fitting.

Thank you - i have sent her an e-mail.

Is there any chance that you could use velcro on the inside to hold the cover in place?

Yep, doing that now, but I am giving it to my wife as I've ordered a K2, and I want to give it to her in almost new condition. So....I'd like to fix it for her before I give it to her.

I have made contact with Allison and she has sold me her battery cover! 

Thanks for everyone's assistance and advice!

Great news wilsondm2! Happy you found one.

Yay!  Was it you I steered this direction from over at the Amazon Kindle forums?  If it is, glad the suggestion panned out & that you were able to get a battery cover.

Excellent! Glad this had a happy ending. I am going to lock the thread and move to the archive.
