Do you only want it in red? You'd stand a better chance of getting it cheaper if you're not so fussy.0

I noticed you bought it online .... Is there any chance you paid for it on a credit card ? If so , they will usually replace items lost/broken regardless of circumstances
as long as it happened within 60 (i think) days of purchase.
Hope this helps0 -

Does the game still work? if so couldn't you get the red console from simplygames (~£65 IIRC) - though it appears to be a different red console.0 -
