SoCalCyclist Posted November 1, 2006 Author Posted November 1, 2006 Ughh, searched the entire site and the cheapest non-media filler was a leather valet key holder for $5. Like I'd ever use that. http://images.overstock.com/f/102/3117/8h/www.overstock.com/images/products/P10001558.jpg I guess if I signed up for the Visa and got an additional $30 off it would be worth it as I'd be saving about $60. :confused: :confused:
EliteABombAZ Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Hey there... FYI... when you get your 360, be sure to send in the card and $60 to get the extended warranty. I just had to send my 360 into Microsoft because it had a "hardware failure." But Microsoft has acknowledged the problem in the early batches of the system and is fixing all 2005-made systems for free. But if I were you, I'd buy the $60 warranty.

If it's a xmas gift I assume I can wait till xmas to send in the warranty even though I'd buy it now. Microsoft XBOX 360 Warranty Link
ElPolaco Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Actually that's for the regular xbox.. it's 49.99 I believe for 360... Overstock on their site has a two year warranty *same as microsoft* for 39.99 And, I signed up for the card to get the discount... just make sure you can pay it off.. and chop up the card afterwards.
SoCalCyclist Posted November 2, 2006 Author Posted November 2, 2006 Woohoo! Got the 360 Premium and a black leather valet key holder for a grand total of $334. :cheesy: :cheesy: :cheesy: :cheesy:

motoXmom Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Lots of great info ...as always! Thanks Our youngest son wants the XBox 360 so I need to start looking for good deals.
jfire Posted November 7, 2006 Posted November 7, 2006 For what its worth I was at target yesterday, and the person in the electronic section told me to wait until after the wii and ps3 come out before to purchase an xbox 360. He just said if it was him he would be wating with a "wink" so since I dont need it till xmas, I will be waiting to see.
duls89 Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 What kind of bundles are there? Do you think there will be any better ones on BF?
jfire Posted November 8, 2006 Posted November 8, 2006 One rumor on bundles is that instead of lowering the price on the premium, they will be bundling the hd dvd player with it.
RchristinaH Posted November 9, 2006 Posted November 9, 2006 I see in the Circuit city BF ad that the premium system is $399. But that is the current price at CC and WM! The only difference I see is that on BF you get a free game. Am I missing something here?

The only difference I see is that on BF you get a free game. Am I missing something here? yeah but its a $60 game and its gears of war aka the new killer app from microsoft.or you can get call of duty 3 which is also good. the good thing is you get a great new game
forcedtoregister Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 From TechCrunch.com:"If you are thinking of buying an Xbox 360 in the next few days, don’t. We’ve gotten information that Amazon may be putting the $300 Xbox 360 bundle on sale for $100 in the next week or so as a promotional move for the holiday season. We don’t know if this will be limited to the Xbox or will include other items, or exactly how many will be put on sale - but it came from a rock solid source. More as this develops, including coverage at Crunchgear." Any one with a good Amazon connection that can veirfy?
Rayny Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 For video systems and games, the manufacturer sets the price. Sometimes you might get a gift card if you spend X amount of money in a store (Circuit City and Best Buy do this quite a bit), and at times, Toys R Us, might toss in a side deal (including games, extra controller, or what not) but beyond these types of deals (maybe eBay if you get lucky and if you would chance it there), I doubt you'll find any other great offers. You might get a slight deal at Sam's Club (maybe even similar type stores but we have none in our area, so I can't confirm it), but I really think that's the best you'll get.
