EVO and screen scratched up by Seidio case

I have the Seidio rebranded Best Buy Platinum Case on my EVO since day one and remove it from time to time to clean out all the dust and particles that gets stuck in there. This case fit poorly and it creaks and feels loose, so I put tape on the corners of the EVO to make a tighter fit. After a couple of cleaning sessions, I noticed the case has scratched both sides of the EVO and even scratched the very bottom of the screen where the case slightly overlap the screen. I didn't use a screen protector as I thought these screens don't scratch easily but c'mon, I've seen videos where the screen went against screwdriver and a razor. This case left tiny linear marks on the screen. I'm not worried as I will trade my EVO due to it freezing randomly. Wiping and reinstalling everything doesn't seem to help.

I think I will put on a screen protector and put transparent tape on wherever the case contacts. I will also rma the BB case through Seidio, but Ill see how well they updated it. I would rather not use a case at all but having kids.. or myself, might accidently drop it. I know some will say just use it, its just a phone, but some of us can't help it as we are super ocd.. knowing there's a scratch bugs the hell outa us.
