Daniel Rubino, Where do you buy the phones?

[Windows Central Question]

You do a lot of amazing reviews on phones. i wanted to ask you where you buy the phones, like the unlocked versions of it. This also for everybody. Where do you guys buy your phones ?

As a former tech journalist, I'm pretty sure he gets loans on most of the phones he reviews. It's standard business procedure.

Wherever is most practical.

I got my 920 from my carrier, which is normal for the US.
But I often got other devices secondhand on eBay, Amazon and whatnot. Don't think you'd want to do that, but that's what I typically do.

B&H Photo is a good great source of International Unlocked Lumias.

Bing for "buy <model name>" and see what comes up. Check the websites for reputation before pulling the trigger. Many national chain stores have unlocked phones n their websites - even places like Target and Walmart.

For used phones I like the MarketPlace ads right here in the various Mobile Nations Forums. (Windows Central, Android Central, iMore, Crackberry, webOS Nation, Connectedly) You would have to be a member to get in on that though as it requires sending PM messages and posting. Also Swappa is a pretty trusted site for used devices of all kinds.
