PRICE ERROR: Xbox 360 Elite Console + Wireless Pack £127.02 @ Amazon

  • They had a similar glitch on a Xbox and controller and game and was for about £90. Amazon cancelled the Xbox but still sent the controller and game pack and charged some people £50 for it who had selected next day delivery.

    I was one of them and insisted they refund the money cause they had no authority to take that money. They did and to this day have not picked up the contoller and game from me.

    I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed, as technically, the folk doing the dispatch might just see that it's a discount of some sort and not an incorrect price. Got to stay positive :)
