I don't think there's much money to be made on selling these things. Overall I think the discount was double what it should have been... so £67 cheaper than Amazon were intending to sell it at - which is great if you want one for personal use...
Once you start thinking about the price you'll get for it (most people would prefer to buy through a shop with a guarantee and the 250GB version is out in November) then deduct any selling expenses and effort - it's not exactly a massive profit.0 -
Woo hoo :jit's just been delivered - had a quick peep and it's the 12.1 thingy which apparantly means the newer version which hopefully doesn't get the red ring thingy (you can just tell how knowledgeable I am on these consoles
) 0 -
have you checked what amazon charged?
£91.79 This Has to be my bargain of the year
I am journeying to a debt-free life.
Our estimated debt-free date is January 2040. I'm on a mission to bring that date closer!
16/02/23 debts - £9556.38
emergency fund - £00.00

yup i have an 'old' 20gb pro which i keep as a spare in the bedroom
its just not worth selling really
if i could afford it i would keep the 2 elites for the larger HD and HDMI but i couldnt really afford it for a 2nd machine that will barely get used0 -
Mine also arrived! With Game pack too. Just wondering who to give it to now...
Thankyou very much for posting this OP!0 -

Thanks so much to Shoppaholic for letting us know about this. :beer:
How did you get delivery of this, when your previous posting back on page 6 stated that your order was deleted and that you got no-where with customer services??
Is there hope for us yet???0 -
I agree with you hun....my son wanted one of these and the rrp was gonna be a struggle...I do hope you get yours, failing that perhaps the ones who got 5 will sell you one for the same price they paid!!! come on...its almost christmas!!
Anyone who really wanted one for a pressie, don't despair just yet, there will be good deals before Christmas. Maybe not quite as good as this, but I wouldn't be surprised if you see something similar along the lines of 169 pounds for a bundle deal of some sort, based on the sales we've seen already.0 -
