I believe the only legal ones are radar detectors.. Which only detect radars, not cops..

I think you're thinking of radar jammers...which are illegal, but they don't work anyway. Police scanners are simply radios that listen to what they're saying, and they are legal...as long as you are listening to cops for the sake of being an informed citizen. but if you use that information to aid in a crime, that's a different story.

To the OP, you can buy police scanners on Amazon.

Using a police scanner in a car while in motion is illegal.
