Now im confused but I think i got 1, had email saying
"Please keep a note of this number for future reference. This email is only an acknowledgement of receipt of your order which has been passed to our team to be processed and has been charged to your card."

Then
"Thank you for your recent enquiry on argos.co.uk

You recently enquired about a Xbox 360 Full System., Cat No. 567/9223, on the Argos web site, which was out of stock.

We have just received further stock of this item.

If you would still like to order, please click on the link below as soon as possible as stock may be extremely limited on some products and we cannot guarantee availability."

AFTER A PHONE CALL THEY SAID YEAH I DEFO GOT 1 COMING BUT IM NOT FULLY CONVINCED !!

Exactly the same situation as me. I think if you made several attempts then the "No Stock" e-mail possibly relates to one of the unsuccessful ones.

Surely if they say we've got one.. we've got one. You'd think! I'll be checking my credit card bill tomorrow - once that's charged I'll be optmistic. :xmassign:

If anyone lives near Asda on Ormskirk Road in Liverpool they have 1 premium xbox in stock £279 as they have just had a delivery of 2 and my brother has just picked one up for me as he was doing his shopping and asked him to see if they had any in stock

Seems you have to be in the right place at the right time

Curry's in Aintree (by the ASDA) have a couple of Cores in stock if anyone is after one but no accessories in stock

Will have to nip out tomorrow to pick up some games to play on it

Premiums appear to possibily be in stock at Choices Direct.

Although it states that they will not be in delivered before Christmas, it says they will usually be delivered in 48 hours (which it did not previously state).

I have ordered one. I received a confirmation email straight away. When I check my order on the site it says it is "processing"

At Choices, don't forget to use Quidco for 5% off (£14)

Look at choices direct's t&c's

"Any order for goods placed by you constitutes an offer to buy those goods at the price shown. We will then send you an e-mail confirming that order, but your offer is not accepted until we either send a further e-mail confirming that we have dispatched the goods, or dispatch the goods to you (whichever is the earlier). There is no contract between ChoicesUK.com and you until we either send this second e-mail or dispatch the goods (whichever is the earlier), and we are not obliged to accept any order until that time. Occasionally prices are shown on the website in error. If an error is discovered before the goods are dispatched, we are therefore entitled to refuse to accept any order for the goods at that price, and to contact you to offer the goods at the correct price."

Could these guys be fishing for email addresses for their database, and decline your order? Hmm.

Think Choices Direct Could be Genuine, Core Console states not shipping until 1/2/06. Just Ordered A Premium, Lets hope it arrives between Xmas & New Year. It's a pressie for myself and I'm sick of waiting for Amazon to pull their finger out of their Backsides!!

Choices has shown in stock repeatedly since release but my order never ever came through and even when I sent a polite email querying the stock status on screen and the apparent 'in stock' I was completely ignored.

Just ordered one from Argos:

Called 0870 600 8784, Cat No 5679223 (full system)

Costs about 5 pounds for delivery.

Arrives on Thursday!!
