Help In what retail stores can I find the SGS3 International/Unlocked?

[Skelaz]

The only places I have found them is either Amazon.com or Newegg.com but since both are online retailers, replacing/returning the phone, if defected, would be a doozy. I know this from personal experience.

So, are there any retail stores that sell the international version? Where did you guys buy your international version?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Firstly, where do you live? I'm assuming you're living in either S Korea, Japan or North America.

Secondly, if I assumed correctly, you won't get them at any of the big stores (you probably know that already). I think you'll need to find a more "flexible" shop. It really depends on the area you live in. In my city, there's plenty of little cell phone shops that are supported by the big companies but can order you phones internationally.

if you have a Fry's Electronics local store, they sell unlocked phones. not sure about the S3. the last time i went looking, i found a Galaxy Note there unlocked.

and if you're lucky, you may even be able to have it price matched with Amazon or Newegg. (i've heard hit/miss situations with unlocked phone price matching).

I'll try Fry's, thanks guys. Are there any other stores? I have seen a lot of people on YouTube review the SGS3 international, perhaps they got it from an event when the SGS3 was released?
