For those who want to know, Kimstore is a legit online gadget store. I was able to buy from them twice: The first is HTC Sensation XE, and the second is HTC One X.
They offer meetups, shipping via LBC next-day delivery, and self-collect (at their office) to get your purchased gadget. When comes to payment, they accept cash upon meetup, bank deposit, Cebuana Lhuiller, and Credit Card (Mastercard).
*Price is good only on the time of writing. For the updated pricing, I strongly suggest that you visit Kimstore’s official Facebook page and their official website. Transact only, with their official mobile phone numbers.
