Question

can someone plzz help me i wanted a sidekick lx and i was going to buy it in the mall but whats the diffrence of buying it in a retail store or mall?

Answer 1

there's no difference with the actual phone. sometimes a retail store will have a larger selection of phones. just make sure the phone you get is compatible with your service provider.  

Answer 2

longer lines!

Answer 3

you get to use your phone right away when you buy it from the store.and you get to make sure all you pieces are there,in the mail if anything is missing you have to wait again for it to come in the mail.And pray when it comes in the mail it works.The difference is the time you have to wait to get it thats all.
