No the diffence in price you could get s external 1tb or even a 2tb drive and for me and others found stuff installed quicker on the external than the internal drive

or TENNEROFFTOGETUNDER250

check your myebay, I had a 10% off code so got it for £233.99, not too fussed about delivery times so think this is a good deal for me.

I'd say no, gives you the opportunity to limit the amount of games your kid has at any point. "You can only buy this new game if you delete/sell/trade in the others you have". I'm not a parent so don't hold me to this haha!

Anyone experiencing random disconnections on the controller?

I also placed order and asked where it was, here is reply:

Zavvi has sent me a message to arrange a return. Not a swap.no stock in.

All fine for me . All the seals intact on both the boxes

Yes this is exactly the case, there are 2 new seals on the sleeve and beneath it you can see a broken seal for the console box.

I've sent Zavvi a message through eBay asking for an explanation and complained that it is not new and sealed as I expected. I'll report back what they say.

could they have opend it to put the halo 5 in?

Not for me as I only got the fifa deal and mine was still opened

Agree,why would they open it.and would they have the time,,I think not.

This is ridiculous that more are getting unsealed units.

Zavvi say they sometimes open them at the warehouse to check contents,but surely under ebay rules sold as 'NEW' it should be a sealed.unused item etc?

Are you sure all the seals were intact before you opened it and not just covered by the seal for the card sleeve?
I'll contact Zavvi through eBay to see what they say. I'm worried I might have just received a refurbished unit.

I ordered one on 29th and it arrived today. The seal on the main box is also open on mine. I probably wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't read the previous comments because there are 2 seals placed over the top to hold the card sleeve on. Very sneaky of Zavvi whatever the reason is!

just checked box and was all sealed....has a 3 pin plug. happy days
many thanks

Same :smiley:

my partner was at home when it was delivered so im not too sure. will let you know

mine has just been delivered

Just got a delivery email

I've had nothing but trouble from these morons. Been waiting two weeks for a refund. Never again

Well I'm getting nowhere with zavvi and my unsealed FIFA deal. They take so long to get back to you it's ridiculous!

They told me that the Xbox's are often opened in the warehouse to check the contents.

And have politely said they have no stock to replace it in the warehouse.,,But it's still for sale on the listing I've noticed.

Basically said if I require anymore help please contact customer service.

Customer service is appalling

Mine says the same 6-10 Nov but its ridiculous when they continue selling it even when they dont have it in stock. And they have sold 809.

This is the reply I got :

I bought this four days ago and it still hasn't dispatched. Anyone get theirs or even a dispatch email yet??

There's always a next time

​yeah just noticed. gutted haha

so close to 1000°c
im actually quite excited :wink:

I know,just trying to sort it out with them,it all looks brand new,,and it was the bottom seal,(xbox nearly fell out when i lifted it up) they take ages to reply back .They have said to open ,inspect and report back if I'm not happy.So I decided to ask them if maybe they should replace it.Not got back to me yet.I may just leave it.hmm

You should end the deal as it is 299 now

​that's not right. If it is brand new it should be sealed

UK plug

The xbox has a 3 pin UK plug inside the box,,I wonder if they swapped it out?the seal was cut on my box,I contacted zavvi/the hut about this and they said they don't open them.

Power lead connector? EU or UK(3 pin)

Looking at the picture, it has got multiple languages which means its EU version, UK version has only English. Also EU version has 2 pin power plug. If you cant tell any difference it must be a UK one then

No idea,whats the difference,or how can I tell?

I bought the fifa one last week with the 20% code and it came on monday,so for me they delivery quick

Can anyone help though,the xbox doesn't come with a headset or adapter (I assume this one does not either) ,, the controller has the new 3.5mm jack.

Does anyone know what adapter I need to get my xbox 360 headset to work? was looking at a 2.5mm to 3.5mm 4 pin adapter CTIA .But then I read I mean an OMTP TO CTIA converter first.Complicated

I have read the cheap samsung s5 headsets on ebay for around a £1 with mic work straight away in the 3.5mm por,handy to know.

I don't really want to spend another £20 on a headset or the stereo adapter if I can help it!

Shows up as £299.99 for me..........

Now at £299.99 :disappointed:

I would never use zavvi ebay outlet advertise products they don't stock then won't refund you until you file a claim. Terrible company

Great deal.

Think I might eBay my ps4 with its games. Should easily raise the £260 needed for this

My friend ordered his PS4 on release from Zavvi using a discount code and a promise of release day delivery. They then dragged there heels with the order claiming they had no stock for over a week, provided no useful information to him. He ended up cancelling the order and buying from amazon. I would just save yourselves the stress and hassle of chasing them and order elsewhere.

Just checked- I haven't got this :disappointed:

on my phone app there was a message at checkout; on my PC there was a "vouchers" section at the bottom of my ebay page whichneeded to be copied/ pasted. I have read here that it is account specific.

The Xbox One remains well behind the PS4 in terms of sales, but on November 12th the update known as the New Xbox One Experience will make Microsoft’s platform the only next generation console with backward compatibility. The Xbox team recently revealed that gamers will be able to access and play over one hundred of their Xbox 360 games on the Xbox One – and Xbox One owners are eager to double or triple their game library.

Xbox One gamers aren’t the only ones excited about the update. Microsoft and the Xbox team have been touting the update as a game-changer for the console, and in the weeks leading up to its release have been revealing details about how backward compatible DLC will work . Not to mention, their hopes for the place of 360 games this holiday season.

Really thinking about making the switch over. Seems to always be loads of great deals on Xbone and games. Not to mention the live sub

Will FIFA be a physical copy or a download?

brilliant deal

WOW, I thought this was a good deal but its turned out to be scorching.

thanks everyone for the hot votes :wink:

check your myebay, I had a 10% off code so got it for £233.99, not too fussed about delivery times so think this is a good deal for me.

For anyone who works at Sainsbury's, we are running a similar deal. 289, with 15% discount makes it 246. If youre not a Halo or Fifa fan, sell them both and youve got a Xbox one for under 200 quid :smiley:

no discount codes anymore?

Sorry, this only became available this morning - I meant I ordered this morning.......not bothered about it being EU or UK as all the same.

edit . . also includes fifa 16

Any 20% discount codes?

For the first time ever im interested in getting an Xbox One at this price

I was mainly a 360 gamer last gen and played my PS3 for the exclusives but Im gonna wait for an 'Xbox One slim' now, I reckon it'll get announced at E3 next year and Ill maybe pick one up late next year when Gears 4 and quantum break are out

awesome deal for game lovers

this is very good but for £60 more you can double your hard drive space get call of duty ghosts and EA access and get it delivered for free, and you dont have to deal with zavvi XD
Your text here

Sorry my bad, it was Thursday :disappointed:

Got this morning but not had a chance to say thanks until now...... Cheers buddy!
#also used my 10% code - it shows just under the price as "you could get this for £233"

Yep, max of £50 I believe. I got the same, console with Fifa for £225.

It's account specific, just go to the checkout and if you have it it will show as being able to apply it. I didn't get an email about it, only noticed it in my account when I was browsing.

ummed and arred about the xbox + fifa deal for £249.99 the otherday, so glad I held off and didn't use my 10% electronics voucher, just snapped this up for £233.99

SCORCHING

Cheers OP

not sure if i should get this one or the one posted on here yesterday from argos

Beware of very slow dispatch times. I ordered the £225 (£275 + 20% ebay discount) XBONE + FIFA16 last Thursday. Now one week on and it has yet to be dispatched and seller could not confirm when this will be dispatched.

Personally I have no confidence in buying from Zavvi.

I understand people here go for the lowest prices so probably this doesn't matter to the majority. I imagine if someone in China offers Xbox for £10 cheaper people would still go for it.

nope :-( otherwise would have bought it

thought so....has anyone got the code to work?

after you hit buy

where is the option to put the code in please

None of the codes work :disappointed:

or TENNEROFFTOGETUNDER250

Any discount codes available for this? £260 is just outside my budget!

I know we can't compare apples to oranges, but in my opinion, Argos deal is better:

£279.99 - Xbox One 1TB + HALO 5

If you go through TCB and use Fast Track option to collect in store (free), cashback is 7.07% (or £19.79). Final cost £260.2 after cashback.

I ordered yesterday and it's available to collect in store today. Cashback also shows up in my account already so all is well.

http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/xbox-one-1tb-halo-5-279-99-argos-10-voucher-back-2309878

​ah fair enough. Go for it. Personally I'd want neither game on the offer but I'd sell the codes and get something more my taste. But if you would play and keep those two then you'll not see better till after Xmas

Haha. Unfortunately they are linked to the ebay account. 11 1/2 hours to think about it...

​personally I'd go for it. If the code is transferable and you aren't going to use it then I'd be delighted to use it for you on this. :smiley:

It clearly stated delivery between 30th oct and 3rd Nov. You're getting worked up about nothing

Managed to get the 1tb model with halo for £269 at argos with a voucher and also got another voucher so overall £259 can't grumble at that.

AVOID ANY SELLER WITH THIS MANY FEEDBACK AND LESS THAN 99%, JUST A RULE I USE!

Man these are getting seriously tempting......

Really want to hold out as I sense some super awesome brack friday bunduru deals coming up but it's getting harder and harder to not buy now!!

kind of hot, heat added :smiley:

would the consoles not become cheaper near xmas? Maybe black Friday? Good deal at the moment.

The ebay 20% discount offer was only available on 22/10 Thursday, I think you ordered a different package than mine.

No, I have raised a return request via eBay which Zavvi has yet to respond after 24 hours. If parcel turns up, I will simply refuse delivery.

That day ebay done the 20% deal they sold around 400 i think so a lot of people are going to be dissapointed.

Yes clearly price matching for the business on stock they simply do not have yet!! BUT are prepared to take negative feedback for the cash they make from sales they are taking from Shopto etc

Where do we go from here? are you going to wait for yours? I think they just sold too many they must not even have them in stock!

Well I don't need mine until Xmas, though would have preferred halo earlier (game for me, Xbox for son :smiley:
So took a chance and ordered.
Thanks

excellent deal for a vhs recorder

We can't let these dishonest seller get away with their false advertising.
When I ordered, Zavvi's page clearly stated "in stock" and "dispatch within 48 hours". Now that's a whole fking week and the last message I received was


I will surely leave a negative feedback after I got all my full refund.

Nice one...

looking to get for my sons xmas, is it worth spending extra and getting the 1tb console?

The link doesn't work

Wow they are getting good now the deals...Stick or twist????? I don't need Halo though that's the thing!!! Fifa only for me and maybe the new star wars. £200 with Fifa and 500GB and that's a deal for me personally, I'm holding out. But cracking deal best so far.

What a difference a day makes

Excellent deal! Heat!
