Default Looking for a BlackBerry parts source near Albany NY

Does anyone know of anywhere even remotley close to Albany NY that sells blackberry parts???? I've repainted my housing, and it came out absolutely better than I could have ever expected, but like a dweeb, I did not tape the inside of the front lense, resulting in little speckles of paint and sparkles. I tried to clean it off myself with a variety of different agents, including nailpoolish remover, rubbing alcohol, and just plain water. I've come to the conclusion that I just need to replace the screen, but I have NO patience to wait to order and ship over the internet. If anyone knows, PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Thanks~

if you get lucky, any local cellphone store might carry replacement housings. check with your local verizon store. if not, you may have no other choice than going on the internet to get exactly what you need. not to mention, the internet stuff usually ships pretty quick.

i have always found that when the right, specific parts are required that the internet is the only place to get them from. almost no local stores, especially carrier stores, keep stuff we need in stock. besides, its alot cheaper getting things like that online.

i have never used this website, so i wont endorse them nor advise against them, but i personally was planning on getting parts and stuff from them. they have everything you need at a decent price.

Go to cnn.cn. They have great service. I have ordered multiple items from them and they are all of great quality. I haven't ordered from them in a while, but I would still recommend them. Good luck with whatever you decide.

i was gonna say them too, but since some of their products are just repainted stock housings, ive kinda decided not to use their products.
