    Get the game from ebay, there's a lot of people not enjoying this game at all, thus resorting to selling it so you'll get lot cheaper there than anywhere else I'd imagine.

    Cheapest way maybe to go through a cashabck site like Quidco to get your console as the prices are still steady at the moment, pity you did not get one last Friday when Game done the 24 hour sale and they had Xbox 360 premiums for £220 but they got snapped up very quick as there was only 20 consoles over 24 hours.

    Just thought you can get a Ghost Recon package from Game and you also get a limited edition ghsot recon faceplate with the deal which cannot be purchased seperately in the shops, these faceplates sell in excess of £25 on ebay so you could get that package and sell the faceplate on ebay making your 360 cost you a bit less

    Hi
    If your mobile phone contract is nearly up go to dialaphone were you can pick up an xbox 360 core version plus a new phone on T-Mobile.
    I got a Nokia 6111 sold it on Ebay for £170 plus £40 through Quidco Plus an X-box 360 and Im on a better tariff than when I was with Vodafone!! all in all a great deal for me.
    Contract is for 18mth mind you but I can live with that as the time that is up the PS3 should be on offer with a new phone :)
    These are the Good 'ol Days just wait and see!
  • Can you just explain how you worked the bit with the phone to me?

    You got a phone from Dialaphone, then sold it on Ebay, but you like the T-mobile tariff that came with the phone.

    I'm guessing that your new number/tariff is on the sim card and you just put that sim card into an old phone that previously had a Vodaphone sim card, thereby keeping with your contract with Dialaphone, yes?

    Hi lucy
    I got my old phone unlocked (orig Vodafone) put the Sim from the T-Mobile in and sold the 'New' phone without a Sim card. I asked for an unlock code on this site and passed this onto the Ebay Buyer so he could unlock the phone himself.

    what deal did u sign up too much be a 18 months contract

    never mind,. i worked it out and it works out too be 205£ which u have too pay

    based on selling the xbox for 209£ and sellin the nokia 6111 for 120£ cuzs it will not sell todays date for 170£,

    and i added the 40£ on the Quidco,. oh and u have to pay £49.99 for the nokia 6111 in the 1st place,.

    all in all u could do better just buying the xbox and getting a cashback on a 12months contract where 5 months a paid in full,..

    not kocking u poster just wanted too work it out and im sure i saved other ppl the time,.. so its 205£ left over too pay for the contract
