hello, everyone i wanted to ask if buying phone from ebay or amazon will be cheaper and is it worth it (since there wont be guarantee and etc) or should i just get it from local carriers (its super expensive in my countryi compared few prices andits pricy as hell)

Buying from Amazon should be fine but I'd avoid Ebay and maybe third part amazon sellers.

I edit my posts a lot.

phones bought from amazon and ebay will have a warranty - depends on the store and if they are used or not etc etc etc

As for the price, you'll need to compare since it may vary depending on which phone you're looking at.

The warranty is with the manufacturer, nothing to do with amazon, amazon is just a shop, and there are hundreds of stores on amazon

I dont think you understand what amazon is

all electrical devices bought within the uk from a company inside or outside of the EU carry a mandatory 2 year warranty. basically.. doesnt matter where you got it from.. your guaranteed!

 

 

EDIT: yeah sorry i automatically assumed you were from the uk.. duh.. but yeah wirks the same in other countries.. just not always a 2 year one
