Title: Anyone know anything about Negri Electronics?
Post by: Sandwich on July 04, 2013, 05:53:10 pm
Been looking for somewhere that sells unlocked Android phones online (worldwide, so Google Play Store doesn't count), and ran across Negri Electronics (http://negrielectronics.com/). They've got enough Twitter followers to make me think they're legit, and everything seems on the level from what I can tell. Still, has anyone here had any experience with them?

Negri Electronics is a merchant member

Domain looks good, as does the ratings.  They also are mentioned on sites like engadget (which they are proud to link to at the bottom of the page).

Interesting...  searching for negrielectronics.com scam turns up an entry on the ripoff report...

But the text is identical to another report of another company, to which someone claiming to be from the negri electronics says it's an attempt at 'revenge' by another company...

Aside from the pissing match posts, they look to be legit.
