I spoke with Sams Club, Best Buy and Gamestop yesterday I was told they all should receive more 360s at or around the 16th.

I only asked Gamestop because I have one on preorder and I am #18 now, otherwise I would stay away from Gamestop and EB. My game stop has over 200 on preorder already.

I was able to get my 1st one on 11/22 at Sams Club, any of you who have memberships that is where I would be watching. On launch they have the fewest in line and had a good bundle for $449. I got added to a friends Business membership and picked it up at 7am.

I need this one for a Christmas gift.

I noticed that ebgames replaced the Perfect Dark Limited Edition in the bundle with the regular one. Does this mean that the limited one is almost gone? Maybe I should go buy that now.

The more I think about it, the better it would be for all stores to hold their trickling shipments in the back until the 18th. At this point, employees will be nabbing every trickling shipment that comes through instantly as they come in just to Ebay them. Holding them will prevent employees from sniping them and give the general public a chance to get them.

BTW: if you are checking Target, I'd stick to Greatlands for now, AFAIK, no other Targets other than Greatlands have received any 2nd shipments.

I bought one last night.


A store in Virginia Beach called Cool Stuff on Holland Road. They sell used stuff, in PERFECT condition. I get all my games and DVD's there. I called them, out of NOWHERE the other night, and they had JUST taken one in. Brand new, in the box. I came and got it, paid them $500. I am enjoying it very much. I was going to ebay it, but once I played it, I decided to keep it.

The EB near my office had a used one in yesterday.

Point being, check your pawn shop type places, rent is due this week. Also check the EB's and Gamestops, anywhere that takes in used stuff.


O&A Party Rock!!!! Opie and Anthony, on XM 202

Hmmm... what would an EB or GS price a used console-only at...

Why would someone trade in the console? Baffles me. I guess they don't know about EBAY or the Internet.

All the pawn shops I know love to Ebay shit.

If you want to monitor a website for an xbox 360, just download webmon.

Then, add each link that you want to monitor. You can also specify to look for certain things if you can read HTML.

So, for example, on an amazon.com xbox 360 page, you can have webmon notify you (pop up and/or alarm) when whatever comes after "availability" changes. Or, etoys has an out of stock gif on their page, just have webmon notify you when it changes.

Its very easy and worked for me alot.

Just be sure to turn off the error notification or you might be getting notified every few minutes about errors.

Just remember, on the online sites, they are only lasting about a minute or 2 (sometimes less). So you have to be fast. Have your amazon account on one click mode. Good luck!

thanks for the tip. what is the best bundle to get on there? are you above 5 now?

Thanks Rock, I added all the Amazon bundles, are there any other sites you would suggest adding?

i added the bestbuy.com bundles as well

No kidding. Go trade it in for less than they paid for it, or put it on ebay and make a tidy profit.

I would assume they wanted the money now, not in a week. Probably because it is stolen and they needed to unload it immediately..

I dont wanna brag.

I also just snagged a 360 network adapter on ebay for $85 - $8 paypal coupon (C11-GiftGuide for 10% off).

Supposedly, they have them at Kmart for $49.99 (mismarked), but I dont have any kmart's close to me.

Some people have had success with Barnes and Noble.com, but it hasnt been for a few days.

My success was dell (phone orders), etoys, and amazon.

Also, I snagged the last 360 harddrive at gamespot last night. Ive been rather lucky this year.

Compusa.com has some bundles right now (premium, 5 games, extra controller for $799)...just got one...

Well that just sucks. I ordered one and after I was finished the page still said they were available, but now my order says backorder.... WTF?

What does yours say, Rock?

Here is what mine says and the time I ordered...

Date: 12/6/2005 1:56:14 PM
Status: Open

I did overnight shipping. If they do not send it by next Wednesday, ill cancel.

Does it also say "Usually Ships In: BackOrdered"?

At least your order is in there. I made a mistake when I did the billing and it accepted the order, then cancelled it a minute later, with no chance to fix the billing.

Mine says:
1 Xbox 360 Super Bundle (Xbox 360)
Product Number: 51811227
Usually Ships In: BackOrdered
Limit 1 per customer.

Delivery
(Next Day) $799.99 $799.99

Subtotal: $799.99
Shipping: $39.97
Tax: $62.00*
Total: $901.96

Well, I suppose if they do any any they'll get shipped out to those who have orders. I just wonder if they had any to begin with.

No, it says

"Usually Ships In: 3 - 6 Business Days"

Ah, you suck again Rock!

I appriciate the attempt to help us out though!

No prob....i have my doubts about these, but it was worth a shot.

Also, my gf is going to be studying for finals tonite. Sooooo, I get some alone time with Perfect Dark, Call of Duty 2, Madden 2006 and my 360. Damn, im such a nerd.

I have Tiger woods golf on order (should be here friday) and I wanna get NBA 2k6.
