Any Australian Lumia 620 users?

[BasketCase13]

I'm going to buy a new 620 in the next few weeks. Allphones has a decent deal at the moment so I think I'm going to go there.

Quick question though... where does one buy accessories? I know I'm going to need a screen protector of some sort, and I'd probably like to invest in some of the shells. Is there anywhere to get this stuff? I prefer an actual store but even online...where is good?

Thanks

Unless you want the charging unit or the black colour, may I suggest buying your phone from Harvey Norman?

I don't really like the white at all lol. But it is a lot cheaper and I'm not particularly fussed over the charger. I was thinking of using the harvey norman price for bartering Not sure if that'd work though...

I bought the white one from HN. Not real fussed about white either, but I figured I'd buy one of the coloured shells at some point, so went for the cheaper price.

The white looks quite good, though. It's growing on me.

I don't go to harvey norman much. Were they helpful? I'm going to go buy this thing on the weekend but still undecided where to go! I really just wanna get the phone and stuff for cheap. Phone, screen protector and sd card...just need to figure out who will sell the whole lot to me for cheap!

I knew what I wanted, so didn't really interact much with the HN staff. I think like all of the big retailers, it's hit and miss as to whether the staff know what they're talking about. HN have had good prices on several of the WP8 devices. The $248 for the 620 seems OK to me, particularly for genuine Australian stock. Keep in mind they only stock white ones.

You'll get cheaper prices on SD cards if you shop around - HN weren't competitive in this area when I last bought one a few weeks ago. And I don't think you'll get a screen protector locally. You'll probably have to order one from eBay.
