Title: Where to buy cellphone jacket?
Post by: Lise on Nov 08 07 02:23
Does anyone know where to buy those cellphone jackets? Y'know, those protective (I wanna call them condoms but anyways......) covers that prevents your phone from breaking when you drop it? I tried Cellular Baby at the mall but they're so damn expensive plus they don't fit my phone. Know of a good cheap place?

Hey Lise.

  I brought mine from Future Shop.  It's a generic one that fit all the cell phones in the shape.  They have one generic one for flip phones too.  I think it was pretty cheap because I remember me checking out other places like London Drugs.  Future Shop seemed to have the better deal. :))

 Yes it is! But its changed since you been there.. its REALLY changed in the past few years. The cops had a political fire lit underneath them so they went in almost weekly for a while and cleaned out alot of the questionable old characters. If you had one thing that was suspected of being stolen, you and all your stuff were moved on. Now the flea market is almost like a small vendor commercialized setup. Theres still some neato stuff.. but no where near the caliber it was before. The Cloverdale Flea is the one to go to now.. Especially for Tools.

    Lise... I would highly recommend checking out the Van Flea before you buy anything from FS or LD. Its cheap and you can bargain there. I bought another car charger and desktop charger there for my phone for 12 bucks.

Uhm, sorry, I disagree about buying that kind of stuff from the flea market.  When I was there, nothing looked hygenic and really "new."  I wouldn't trust touching the things that these people were selling.  yucky germs..and that placed smelled really bad in there.

Ok... the ones I bought were in sealed plastic.

  Not all the stuff there is new.. lol :)

  The smell and questionable rude people are part of the fun of the flea market! I like telling them they stink :)

Fleas are just about the only thing you can't buy at flea markets, they come free.

Tell me about it.  Guys there gawk at any girl!  It's damn rude and annoying at the same time.

  One time, this girl grabbed my guy's ass and walked away giggling.  (this was in the flea market).  My guy was shocked, and I just LOL'ed.  ROFL!

Good tips! Thanks guys! I'll definitely give FShop a try. Like purelife, I'm not too keen on the Vancouver Flea Market. I'm not really a fan of shopping at places like that even at Richmond Market.

  Cellular Baby is a rip-off. Imagine paying up to $30 for a plastic jacket. Sheesh.

  Thanks again, guys!! Blesses all around. (//vny!://discoverseattle.net/forums/richedit/smileys/Happy/20.gif)

Hey guys!

  I finally found a place that sells cheap cellphone jackets. They're at the Crystal Mall so if you're ever in the  market to look for cheap cellphone jackets, check out the Chinese malls first. I got mine specifically catered to my cellphone for like $13. Good stuff!!
