I don't know the time to get to the Phillipines, but it is listed as 7 - 10 days by the USPS. This of course also depends on the amount of time to get through Customs in your country, which of course we have no control over.
I don't have any black skins to compare, but the dark colored cases, black, blue, purple, really don't let the player color show through the skin, where as the clear is more of an opaque, and lets some color through. The pic of the blue is with white, but you can see that the color of the player doesn't come through the skin. Also, the blue color is darker than what the pic seems to suggest. It's more of a royal blue.
