Many places just across the border (Blaine/Sumas) offer US postal addresses free of charge.

Have your item shipped there an pick it up for a few dollar service fee.

Yeah, I know, but I've heard different things about those services re: their fees. That, and I don't have time to drive all the way down.

Sorry if these are stupid questions but..
Where can i expect to purchase locally (asap)?
You guys mentioned a whole bunch of prices but for the Canadian market are there only estimates or concrete prices?
And finally, keeping in mind of those clone phones out there, would you suggest i just purchase in HK this month or here in North America? Ofcourse i want All the Features available.
Thank you for your insight guys, apologies for any inconvenience!

Hagens of Blaine is less than $5 per package. I think its around $3. They do charge you more though if you leave the package there for more than a week.

Oh cool, thanks for the heads up, but i also just found it at Phonemore.ca for like $980 (CAD) and it's a local store too. Either way.. it's.. still a bit much.. to pay for a cell phone.. imo.. just might wait it out a bit..

Damn, me too.. I'm on the edge for my method of purchasing.. Still don't know where to buy it.. it's easier to go local but its much cheaper to go through the net..
Give a shout out if anyone finds more prices and places to buy! Thanks all!
