Too bad they don't offer it to Canadians
|
so basically, on thanksgiving, I sign on amazon.com at 1 p.m (est) and just check on core consoles?
It would be amazing, but I'm doubting it :/ |
I'll try it, to have a backup 360, but I imagine there will be a lot of "server is busy" errors.

How to Get Amazon Customers Vote Deals
Each week's winner goes on sale Thursdays at 11 a.m. Pacific Time. Buying will close when available quantities have sold out. Be online, ready and waiting on Amazon.com, the second buying goes live. If you don't have an Amazon.com account already, get one now. We predict that these deals will sell out rapidly. You won't buy products from Amazon Customers Vote the way you'd ordinarily buy at Amazon.com. We've implemented a special series of screens to ensure we only take as many orders as we can fulfill, and to ensure that each customer buys only one item. You'll be asked to verify your identity, and issued one of a limited number of claim codes that allow you to purchase at the special discounted price. You must buy via the Amazon Customers Vote page (amazon.com/customers-vote), not the product detail page, in order to buy one of the set-aside items; otherwise, you will not pass through the series of screens in which we issue the claim code, and you will not receive the discount. Additionally, only items shipped from and sold by Amazon.com are included in this promotion, although some of these items are sold on our site by third-party merchants. If you add an item to your cart from the detail page using the "Add to Shopping Cart" button for a different merchant (such as Target), we cannot apply the claim code to your order. |
I can't wait til they sell all 1000 alloted in 2 minutes and then see the throng of internet posts whining about bait and switch and threatening to sue amazon for not selling it to them for $100.
|
Don't forget the greed that will place at least half of those 1000 alloted items up on ebay for profit. :rolleyes:
|
i want to try to get one for a friend for christmas. If it doesn't work out, im sure I won't lose any sleep over it
|
Yeah, it's funny...people are ALREADY bitching about this deal. I will try, It will be 2 minutes of my life.
|
people are so damn whiney on the internets :lol:
|
Even though I don't have too much interest in the Xbox, I will try just for the hell of it.
|
Bring it on...my son would love to open the XBox 360 under the tree.
|
Cool. I voted for the Barbie deal!
|
84.3% of votes so far ;)
|
I think Amazon may be trying out this method of handing out claim codes for when they finally decide to sell PS3.

I'll be on dial up at my parents house as well. I'm still giving it a try though. |
I was very excited about this deal until I saw posts about it on almost all the message boards I go to. There's definitely a lot of buzz about this deal and I think it may be tough to get in on it. At my house we'll have at least 2 people trying for it, I let some of the more tech-savvy relatives know that if they wanted a shot they may need to bring their laptops because we only have 3 computers that can be used at a time.
|
I'll give it a shot. Do I just have to go to the page that XBox 360 sells at normally, or will there be a special link?
