Couldn't see this posted elsewhere so here goes...Xbox One 1tb from Amazon France with black ops 3, and fallout 3/4. Looks a bargain for coming with 2 top games.
Edited to add it appears to be £9 delivery for me. Still a really good deal though.

No issues with warranty that I know of.
The kettle lead from the Xbox 360 will also fit into the power brick of the Xbox one so you can use that if you have a 360. ☺️

Will there be any problems if bought from France, for example: plugs/warranty?

No problems. You will just need to buy a kettle lead with a UK plug. Couple of quid tops.

Hot, however if I go to COD and Star Wars the console is only 500GB
Heat though
I can't seem to make the page appear in English though

I had the same thing and was looking at the same bundle. If you're using Chrome it didn't seem to offer a translation so I had to right click on the page and "Translate" to get it to work.
I'm after a 1TB machine with Black Ops 3 and SW Battlefront but I can't find this in a bundle anywhere.

this might be a silly question but will the language on instructions and games etc be in french?
mr-mixalot
1 Dec 15#15
Going to go for the Tomb Raider bundle instead as that comes with the 1TB version, he still gets Black Ops 3 which is what my son wants, I just need to find out is he prefers SW or TR instead

When I ordered last night the website said 18th to 31st of december but I had an email this morning to say " Date d'arrivée précédemment estimée : 18 décembre 2015 - 31 décembre 2015
Nouvelle date d'arrivée prévue : 04 décembre 2015 - 07 décembre 2015", so it's now the 4-7th of December! :smiley:

If you don't want Black Ops 3, I guess you could trade it in at CEX for £31. Bringing the price to £238.40.
jeffery to Dazza853
1 Dec 15#27
Exactly what I'm going to try to do. It'll then be a saving of £41 over the Tesco deal that started on Black Friday.

Don't think cex etc trade in games from overseas. these have the French language all over the front so its clearly not from UK
Chasloyal
1 Dec 15#28
CEX knock back foreign games but there's nothing stopping you choring an empty case off the shelf in Tesco or Game and putting the game disc in that :wink:
That nearly always works but I never told you that :smirk:

2 Dec 15#35
jeffery, pleased you are getting your purchase quicker than first suggested,when your purchase arrives, could you post if the games art work is in english or more likely french, as,like others, I would like to sell them at cex?
SClarkey1
3 Dec 15#36
What's the situation regarding the games, are they "french titles", as i know a lot of games can be switched for language in game, but some not...?
oldboy64
3 Dec 15#37
SClarkey1, my understanding is the games will work fine, you may have to,as you have stated, select English,but English may also be the game default language,but as the thread mentions, if you want to sell them, if the case artwork or disc artwork is in a language other than English 'cex' and probably 'game' would not be willing to purchase them.
SClarkey1
3 Dec 15#38
oldboy64, Thanks mate, might just take a punt on this then. Don't really have the intention on selling them, unless they're stuck in french like i found when my girlfriend brought over Dishonored, oh the cruelty..

Just an update peeps. Mine arrived today (day earlier than expected) ordered it Monday. All packaging is in English including games. Only problem is I thought I had a kettle plug and I don't!! The plug from the back of my PC might suffice I read 3 pin is the same as the 2. Only thing that worries me is its a 5amp fuse. Anyone know if that's enough for Xbox or do I need a 13amp???
oldboy64
3 Dec 15#40
Why do you not just cut the European plug off the lead and fit a UK 3pin plug?

Will a ps3 3pin lead suffice? think i read that elsewhere on here recently.

Charged me £291.49 (including delivery), however still a steal at this price IMO. Thanks OP

5 Dec 15#43
I got this for approx £280 including delivery using amazon exchange rate at checkout (my bank charges would have meant the cost came to within pence of the amazon one anyway). It came in about 3 days. Fallout 3 is a sealed cardboard wallet download code inside the xbox box. Fallout 4 is a physical sealed game inside the xbox box. Then, inside the main cardbox that the xbox came in, was my physical copy of CODBO III and the Steelbook thing.
Pretty good deal. Not amazing, but the best 1TB I'd seen so went for it.
Chasloyal
5 Dec 15#44
How's that a steal then?
The blue Forza 1TB Xbone was still going for £299 on Amazon UK and this one was going for £289 on shopto, confused logic that
SClarkey1
5 Dec 15#45
It's 2 games Chas. Coursemyhorse, was all the games English?
Chasloyal to SClarkey1
5 Dec 15#46
Shopto only sell UK games don't they?
And Fallout 3 is worth two bob anyway, sorry but it's not worth getting excited.
I'll nail my flags to the mast, I got Fallout 4 on PS4 anyway but even if I hadn't I would have gone gone for a different bundle before this but it is down to personal tastes of course

I have had enough tear ups with people like Ripperoo on here about these Euro Xbone deals, so I'm not looking to pipe with you too. I'd rather blow a few bob more on a special edition console with one game than getting one of these plain black things with a game or two I most likely own on PS4 already.
And that's exactly what I did by getting the two tone Halo Xbone here from Amazon Deutschland this week as I think it's looking the part proper. I actually bought the blue Forza Xbone too as I was unsure which I liked more but have decided to keep this Halo one as it looks better next to my silver PS4 and so I am giving the blue one away.
I like to save money like the next man but I'm not that tight I'd rather spend a bit more an getting exactly what I want than paying less for something I don't :man:

almost as good as the flash sale on amazon.fr yesterday
I managed to get the 1tb tomb raider console with COD BO3, wolfenstein and the enemy within for 260 delivered. will be arriving Thursday. I've ordered stuff of amazon.fr before can be an issue when they ##### up but they do have an English email address and they do sort out very quickly. I ended up getting my postage refunded.
As for Warranty, anything bought in the EU is covered under the same warranty so no issues there. Plus the games are PAL so will be in English

I think this is a great deal, just paid £294 with express delivery. I can't keep holding out for anymore deals incase I miss Xmas completely. I was hoping to pick up a 1TB with either Fallout 4 or Black Ops 3 for £250 - but I just don't see that happening, or I've missed them all?!

I got this bundle and the Cod 3 black ops game arrived . Cover all in French !

11 Dec 15#52
Yep mine arrived just now and both with French covers! Not ideal for a xmas present when someone in this thread said theirs arrived as UK..... but I guess I'm not overly surprised given I did actually order from France!!
Hopefully they'll setup and play fine in UK... I'll be very cross if not as otherwise I don't understand why this site would so frequently make these deals hot.

Sending it back, just not worth the hassle and risk of opening it. Though it's not free return delivery, but upto €7 will be refunded :disappointed:
So much misinformation on this site regards these deals; oh UK packaged products (nope!), free Amazon returns (err nope again!).... anyone on the fence like I was, just buy from the UK.
Luckily Argos have just released Fallout 4 and Forza 6 1TB edition for £299 so reserved that for pick up tomorrow.

Funnily enough the Postman just knocked on with my Master Chief controller from amazon.fr, and the only other thing I've bought from amazon.fr recently is the Darth Vader controller, you can see from the pic they are both English first.
That said they are the only gaming products I've ever got from Amazon France that aren't splattered in French all over the exterior, the games are still default set to English language and even if they weren't you could always change it in the very opening setting when you initially start the game for the first time.
Hmmmm strange it was delivered at all seeing the only graft the Österreichischen Post do here on a Saturday is for Amazon Deutschland's Prime service, though we have obviously it from amazon.de we ain't got it from amazon.fr but I musn't grumble, sorry I digress.
Bottom line is though that whenever I buy a game over here from Libro or my local indy store in Austria it's packaging is in German, same goes for purchases from amazon.de, even console packaging is in German. Thus seeing the French are so obsessed about keeping their lingo prominent to the point of xenophobic I'd have thought anyone would realise 99.9% of stuff you get from over there would be French language first.
As for paying for returns course you have to but they will refund you if it's damaged/not working I'm almost positive, luckily anything from amazon.de is free return in Austria because that's our 'branch' as such. Anything I've bought from Amazon UK that's had to go back I've had to pay at the counter in the Post Office and mail customer services a pic of the receipt then they issue a refund. Had the very same policy with returns to America from purchases off amazon.com, got no idea where you're getting that €7 figure from because that don't sound right. Although that said I've only ever returned stuff to Amazon operations abroad when stuff has arrived damaged so maybe it's different for 'change of mind' returns, hands up I'm not 100% sure on that one.
At the end of the day when you buy something from a non English speaking country you'll most likely receive it in packaging with their language on, it is what is
