  • I brought 18 of these. Thought they'd be good over time to give to friends and/or sell. If it doesnt go though then I guess I haven't really lost!

    Is it really necessary for people do go over board and do things like this? Its people who do such silly things that stop companies from honouring misprices/glitches etc.
    Having a coke with you
    is even more fun than going to San Sebastian, Irun, Hendaye, Biarritz, Bayonne
    or being sick to my stomach on the Travesera de Gracia in Barcelona

    I totally agree. My hubby is a gamer but i didn't order loads so he could add his memberships on and top it up a few years. I ordered 1 and 1 only.

    People get greedy.
  • I'm getting a lot so I can give these to my friends when their x-box live runs out. Its makes a good present to friends anyway. I'd rather sell it to others at a price lower than high street stores because they all sell it at an expensive price and at the end of the day who loses? Come on, so many people will have gone for this its not like it makes a difference. They almost definitely have a company policy on things like this anyway.

    Who loses? Us!!! people bulk buying will make companies not want to honour the glitches as people are taken advantage of their company.. yes all people do that by even buying one but buying in bulk, is showing the companies that we can basically take the pee out of them by ripping them off.

    did none of u think that it could be £2.99 to preorder the item rather than for the item its self

    What, like a deposit? I've never heard of that happening before, and I'm sure they would mention it in the description if that was the case. It's a case of mispricing. It happens a lot with them too.

    They should give a MSE a job, it would save them a small fortune:D
  • strange that reviews have appeared again
  • This is still advertised at £2.99 but when you put it in your basket it comes up at £35.16.

    FiFi :)
