Hey, I threw this topic in here as people who frequently buy/sell phones would more than likely have the most reliable answer.

Is there anywhere local in Calgary that sells unlocked/unbranded phones? Usually these places would sell them cheaper than any retail outlet would, and can offer some sweet deals, and can also offer phones you wouldn't normally find at a carrier.

Please reply if you know of anywhere, Thanks.

I dunno about unbranded but theres a store in New Asia, the Asian Fido store that carries cells that the Caucasian Fido stores dont carry

www.unipage.ca is Calgary based. I find them pricier than the competiton.

Omegacell sucks too, they price their stuff sometimes double their competitors.

Check out puremobile.ca if you want Canadian sellers. They usually have some good deals. If you don't mind the wait, try myworldphne.com. I bought a couple phones from them and they are fast and their prices are amazing.

Tigerdirect.ca has some great deals too, but a lot of them require you to file a mail-in-rebate. Some members have complained that they've never gotten their rebate.

Unlocked phone generally are since they are not subsidized by phone plans. You wanna play, you gotta pay.

There is a T Dot based website I think its www.easycell.ca

Never bought personally anything from them, but I have kinda heard both good and bad things about them.
