This question is technically directed at one member specifically, but maybe some others can enlighten.
 @Onefishtwofishredfishblue , is the "blue" also a fish, or is it something else?
The blue is out of characters.

Anyone ever deal with my dilemma? There are tickets to a show going live on Shabbos. They will get sold out really fast but I really want some! I don’t have many non Jewish friends or relatives oversees that can get them for me. Any ideas?
Go to ask another DDFer a favor thread and maybe an Israeli DDFer will do it for you

No clue. All I know is that the dates/times/locations are being announced the 13th.

Asking a non-jew to do something during Shabbos is worse that asking a Jew to do it while they are in a time zone that is not shabbos.

Um... that was actually my back-up plan. Guess I’ll have to see if my aunt in Australia wants to do it for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

If one were to import phones to Israel (for retail), which carrier would be the best, assuming unlocked is not available?

Verizon is the hardest to unlock, if at all possible.

All Verizon new phones come unlocked. However they usually have the bootloader locked, so much harder to get custom ROMs etc.

The only issue is that they use different LTE bands. (CDMA is mostly being phased out, but available on older phones).
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Correction: Verizon is the hardest to universally unlock.

That doesn't make any sense.
