Ive voted hot but i want to change me mind can i do this?

Reason being is you just made me spend £250 :disappointed: lol

Thanks for the deal edi - my main reason for buying this is to use as a media centre thats wireless (gaming is just a bonus :smile:)

Now i have the Quidco Bug where i sit there pressing F5 every 2 seconds waiting nervously for it to track! (even tho i know it will take hours if not days :disappointed:)

31 Aug 06 #10

Thanks - I want one... my heart says buy, my head says wait for PS3, omg, a PS3 would be twice this price?!! Not twice as good tho....

:confused:

davedixson to russ

31 Aug 06 #12

Chances are PS3 won't even be as good as the XBox 360 for a while as the developers have to get used to writing for a new system. Damn - I wish I had £250 laying around right now - been walking around the house with my EBay radar on but can see nowt but tat!

Whats the usual 'good find' price of the xbox 360 system?

emmajk42 to Garthunkle

31 Aug 06 #25

The cheapest cash price we have had before was £237 from Dixons a while back.

This is a very good offer from Boots though, best offer in a while.

Garthunkle

31 Aug 06 1 #26

Well the thing is because im an employee, I can get it for £170. (taking into account points)

I'm not a massive game player, but my housemates are. The wireless media centre stuff it offers is cool aswell.

How much do games go for?

LazyDonkey

31 Aug 06 #27

I've been very tempted with the recent Xbox 360 offers, but I've always been a Playstation guy so Im eagerly awaiting the slightly superior PS3.

I am still tempted in getting a cheap 360 as well, BUT does anyone know if the initial problems with the console overheating and switching off have been fixed ???? Have seen quite a lot of bad press recently.

That_Bloke

31 Aug 06 #28

Thanks for that edi, fantastic deal. I've been looking to get a 360 for a while, but couldn't bring myself to pay much more than the price Dixons had a while ago. Now it is even better!

bbkarn

31 Aug 06 #29

This looks like a great deal, thanks.

Don't forget that the core system also works out at a pretty good price too, in the region of around £170 after quidco.

emmajk42

31 Aug 06 1 #30

I'll pop this in here as the deal is ending at midnight - if you're not worried about the Boots points, if you buy from [COLOR=blue]QED-UK.com[/COLOR] before midnight tonight, you can get the XBOX 360 premium for £243.55 delivered using the promo code HAPPYDAY0806. I'm not starting a new thread as I think the codes runs out in 45 minutes!!!

EDIT - 4% quidco cashback as well.

Xbox Full is out of stock now. It's all over people!! :smile:

@gary_rip

Although not quite as good a deal as Boots, as emmajk42 has mentioned you can pick up a XBOX360 premium system for £243.55 delivered minus 4% Quidco cashback and voucher still works, I just checked. :-D

Cheekster.

gary_rip to cheekster

Thanks for checking, lets hope it still works 2moz!

Does anybody subscribe to the view that there may be a lot more deals around when the PS3 is released? I kinda think a lot of game addicts out there will be flogging their 360s on ebay in order to buy the PS3.

sbear1

1 Sep 06 #35

Not really, they will be so short of supply in the UK this xmas that only the truly dedicated (and probably more money than sense) will actually get a PS3. Better to wait for when they are more available, more competition and better deals around.

I reckon MS will release a special pack for xmas, throw in an old game or two at the same price. I also reckon we will see the xbox360 classic range launched including the launch titles from last xmas for around £20, so online for about 17.99 as usual.

edi

1 Sep 06 #36

Yeah... If you cant get it from Boots at this price, I would advise to hold on. This price will be a sort of standard in a few months time.

@ LazyDonkey

I can't vouch for it personally, not being a 360 owner (yet) but as I understand it the initial problems reported with the first wave of Xbox 360's has now been cleared up.

It just goes to show that the early adopters of technology always run the risk of equipment failure on the the first generation of machines. It's the same for cars and so on.

PS3 fans be warned, especially as reports suggest that PS3 production has only just started (and they aim to ship two million units by November? That's gotta be pushing it).

@the ppl who ordered this...

has it showed up in your quidco yet?

Johnnyboy to gary_rip

1 Sep 06 #40

No - I ordered last night and no Quidco as of 6:45pm tonight:(

stevenpcurtis

Quidco still not showing...

gary_rip

4 Sep 06 #42

Mine still isnt showing - i think they are on to us :disappointed:

Johnnyboy

4 Sep 06 #43

Nor mine. Mind you, I tried to get Quidco to log an enquiry and it acknowledged the purchase, but wouldn't accept an enquiry until mid Spetember 'cos Boots are slow to track.

Spong

5 Sep 06 #44

hey there, boots have them back in stock, but this code doesn't seem to work anymore :disappointed:. Anyone know any other good deals for an xbox 360? Besides pc world :smiley:

dino01

6 Sep 06 #45

yea me too i tried the code today not working where is the next best deal cos since the ps3 has been pushed back there isn't much chance now of a 360 price drop due to no competition

Hi I'm new to forums & this site so I'm just going to dive right in so forgive me if I do this incorrectly. Anyway I have been reading your posts on the xbox 360 & was wondering if anyone knew of any other deals going on with them as I was hoping to purchase one this weekend. The problem is I would prefer the premium pack but everywhere seems to be at £280 price & the vouchers seem to be past. Any advice would be gratefully received.

emmajk42

7 Sep 06 #47

Hi meads, welcome to the forums.

I believe they are all full price at the minute - someone correct me if I am wrong!

Hi Emma,

Thanks for your response, just thought I'd ask, you may be able to help me with something else though, as I previously mentioned this is my 1st time on the forums & to find your repsonse I had to research for the previous threads is there an easier way to view responses. Also would it of been better advised to make this a new post so that everyone could of seen it without coming to the end of this thread.

Many thanx

£274.99 @ HMV

Use the code CA8795 to get £5 off, making it £269.99

If you use Quidco you can get 6% cashback (£16.20), making HMV the cheapest price, with discounts at a final total of £253.79

dino01

7 Sep 06 #53

someone please explain i thought you weren't meant to be able to get the NUS discount on games consoles but i can, when i added the quidco discount it comes to £232.64 so looking into getting it from here sounds good to me

emmajk42

7 Sep 06 #54

I recall someone tried this before and had their order cancelled I think, using the NUS discount on a console I mean...

theyiddo

7 Sep 06 #55

also, if you have a HMV Games Rewards card, you'll get enough points for about £15 in vouchers to use...as thats what happened when I bought my 360.

dave150

7 Sep 06 #56

What deal at pc world ? :confused:

ThePennyPincher

7 Sep 06 #57

Found cheaper price, go to Woolworths @ £279.99

Use the code FRIENDS this wil bring the price down to £251.99

Then quidco gives 5% cashback (£12.60) making it a rather cheapish £239.39

stebrookfield

7 Sep 06 #60

Well, mine arrived today :grin: But hasn't tracked in Quidco :disappointed: so I'll be sending an enquiry as well.

Two quick questions if anyone can help:

1.) Where's currently the cheapest place to buy Xbox 360 games besides Ebay?

2.) What can you do with the Xbox 360's hard drive?

Many thanks for any help offered.

P.S. many thanks again to the OP :thumbsup:

Look for region-free asian 360 games, as they're cheaper than PAL releases.

Check Play-Asia for cheap 360 games.

7 Sep 06 #62

12 Sep 06 1 #67

I put down what my invoice was and that was £251.99, I assumed that they wont give the quidco for the before discount price...was that right?

gary_rip

12 Sep 06 #68

Ok, ive submitted mine. I will post here the outcome. Thanks kimbo_frog :smiley:

yuffie

13 Sep 06 #69

I'm new to Quidco so may have got it wrong, but when I filled in the enquiry, it said to put down the value minus VAT, I worked this out to be £214.46. Is this right???

gary_rip

13 Sep 06 #70

opps, didnt realise you had to do it minus VAT will look over it again now :S
