Let me know if you want me to ask him to look into it. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-place-to-buy-an-iphone#post-941796 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 12:07:49 +0000 TheReelDeal 941796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would try places that can sell Apple phones, Target (?), Best Buy, Walmart. Then you won't have to worry about extending the contract or anything and he can have the phone set up for his number at any retail outlet for your phone carrier. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-place-to-buy-an-iphone#post-941787 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 12:05:03 +0000 shopaholic 941787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Nope... my family always takes the upgrades. He's had the same phone for oh...5 years? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-place-to-buy-an-iphone#post-941730 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 11:54:12 +0000 regberadaisy 941730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: he's not up for a upgrade yet I assume? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-place-to-buy-an-iphone#post-941728 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 11:53:47 +0000 shopaholic 941728@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: I mentioned it to him before Xmas about getting him a 4, and he said "If I'm going to get one, I want the latest one!" so go figure! Verizon.</p> <p>@autumnlove: My back-up is just through Apple too. Was wondering if any tech-savvy people knew of better deals. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-place-to-buy-an-iphone#post-941715 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 11:51:23 +0000 autumnlove 941715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I buy through Apple or AT&amp;T. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-place-to-buy-an-iphone#post-941711 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 11:50:46 +0000 regberadaisy 941711@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: how much are you looking to spend? Why not a 4/4s? You'll have better luck getting a 4 refurbished ($50-$100) on Apple's site or through your provider. What provider are you?</p> <p>eBay also but you'll pay out your nose bc most of those are jail broken. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-place-to-buy-an-iphone#post-941700 Thu, 18 Jul 2013 11:46:57 +0000 shopaholic 941700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH's birthday and our anniversary are coming up. He still has a "dumb" phone and I've been wanting to get him an iPhone for a couple of years now. He didn't want me to spend the $, but now we have the baby, I think it's better for him to have one (pictures, video, music, facetime, apps, etc.) We're on my parent's family plan and I don't want to have to extend his contract. Where is the best place to buy him an iPhone 5 and still get warranty protection? We're in SoCal, if that matters. </p>
