Hi,
Have a look at this http://www.avforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=272902.
Basically someone buying a very expensive Xbox package and then taking all of the bits they didn't want back for a refund, reducing the costs to the normal retail price!!
I'd posted this as a reply to another Xbox thread, but thought it was worth it on it's own!
Goodluck!

YES YES YES :j
Called in to Game on Farfate in Sheffield today. Cashier said they were expecting 2 core and 2 premiums within 20 minutes. Anyway I waited and sure enough they arrived. How much are they? I asked, £769-99 he says with a bundle of games etc. So I bought one, paid for it and then asked him to refund me £480-00 for all the useless bundled games and accessories!!!! He said he couldn't do it but I quoted the T & C's and said if you're not certain ring head office. Anyway he went into the back to speak with his manager - came back and told me Head Office lines were all engaged but as a "gesture of goodwill" they would refund me the £480. So we have an xbox premium for Christmas. Only thing now are the games but the ones he wants have been delayed until January. Should still be able to play the ordinary xbox games though.
Cashiers face was an absolute picture!!!! And the manager didn't even put in an appearance.
A BIG BIG Thank you to Chriswil for the link above
