Where's a place to buy a mobile/cell phone , which is cheap, and in a reputable place that won't rip you off?
is there a possibility of getting an international warranty ? or am i asking too much?
also, i don't know much about phones.. what is a reasonable amount to pay for an average phone?
(prefer colour screen flip phone, other things don't matter, don't need camera)

thanks in advance!

There are literally hundreds of mobile phone shops in Hong Kong so you will not have any problems finding one.
Some shops (Smartone, Orange, Sunday) are also phone companies so they might offer two prices, one for their customers and one for others.
You can also try a big electrical retailer such as Fortress. With the bigger shops you can use a credit card, you won't be cheated and you get an international warranty.
If you are not fussy about design or features, you can get a mid range Nokia in HK for a few hundred dollars. If you get an old model you will get an even better price.
