    I phoned my local this morning and they weren't selling it at the lower price. Neither are Tesco Direct!
  • Still £115 at Amazon for both the blue or black one. Plus Nectar points? :)

    It's double nectar points at the moment at Amazon - even better.

    I paid £9 for delivery tomorrow to make sure I got mine.

    Thanks for posting it was available at Amazon trynsave. I had £55 worth of amazon vouchers to use so only cost me £69. :D I'm a very happy bunny at the moment. :D

    Any reason why you didn't do the 30 day free trial for free next day delivery? That's what I did, so hoping it is ok. I'll obviously cancel beforehand as not paying £40+ for the priviledge!

    Weird since this is a national offer, presumably prices are the same in all stores? Maybe they went and just looked at the ticket rather than check the actual price. I suggest you try again THEN go to Currys or PC world and buy there. Actually it'd probably be easier to just go there first and get them to ring around presuming you have more than one Tesco within 30miles of the branch
  • I rang Tesco this morning about the discrepancy because at Tesco Direct they were selling for £195.00 - they didn't have a clue, they asked which page the advert was on in the Daily Star!

    Luckily I checked the forum and found out Amazon were selling them so thanks guys, that's two Christmas presents in and I will have two very surprised daughters on Christmas day as they were told they were too expensive.

    £115 at tesco Direct. Just went through to the end screen (as I know that it will sometime wait until you log in before telling you OOS) and it accepted no problem at £115.

    Sales are probably below target but they're not at all bad. I think it was the biggest ever console launch in terms of sales. Unfortunately some games, Metal Gear solid and Kid Icurus, got delayed and I think people held off a bit and it's probably affecting american sales a bit and they can't really lower the price over there, otherwise people will just order online
