The store is coming back. The shipping is not.
We still know what the Nokia 808 Pureview is.
Arrived from /nokia-808-pureview-unlocked-white.html. Kept, not discarded.
BlackBerry. Lumia. Nexus. HTC. Galaxy. Phones from every carrier and every corner of the world, unlocked before unlocked was normal. Negri Electronics is coming back, only this time you can fill your cart without emptying your bank account.
Same phones. Same ridiculous prices. Very different checkout.
We'll tell you when the doors reopen, and you'll get first access to the original catalog, fake orders, tracking, wishlists and whatever other ridiculous things we bring back.
No spam. No credit card. No actual shipment.
Yes, we actually sold these.
The products, names and wonderfully specific prices come from the real Negri Electronics catalog.
LG D821 Nexus 5 16GB (Unlocked) (Black)
Samsung N900A Galaxy Note 3 32GB LTE (AT&T) (Unlocked) (Jet Black)
Remember these?
There was a time when getting the newest phone meant importing it from another country, checking network bands and hoping Ryan had one in stock.
All the dopamine.
None of the damage.
Remember the rush of finding the phone you wanted, adding it to your cart and imagining it arriving tomorrow? We kept that part. We removed the expensive part.
Browse the catalog. Build a wishlist. Fill your cart. Place an order. Re-order your favorites. Track the package.
Nothing is actually sold, charged or shipped. Your real-world total is always $0.00.

I never really stopped missing this place.
Negri Electronics was a huge part of my life. We shipped phones all over the world, chased devices nobody else had yet, and somehow built a community around buying ridiculously expensive unlocked phones on the internet.
Years later, people still bring it up to me. They remember the phones, the site, the leaks, the preorders, the waiting and the excitement of getting something that wasn't supposed to be available yet. I remember it too.
So I thought it would be fun to bring the store back.
Instead of our old same-day shipping policy, though, the new site is a little different: we never ship. And you never really pay.
I wanted to bring back the fun of shopping Negri Electronics without all the cost and waiting. Well… there is still waiting. 😉
I hope you enjoy it, and that it brings back some happiness and memories.
Come shop with us again. This time, everything is on the house.
Join the Negri Electronics reboot and we'll let you know when the green cart lights up again.
