    Makro is a 'trade' store though so you need to:

    1. Add VAT to the price - making it 235
    2. Forget about any sort of guarantee - if you get a problem outside about 28 days then you have to take it up with Microsoft
    3. Need a membership card

    It does look as though a price drop is on the cards though (especially with the 120Gig black HDMI version seemingly due out soon)
    They promised the earth...and delivered mud. Technically though it did meet the spec.
  • The price of the premium won't drop that much wen the new 360 comes out! The new one will simply be more expensive!

  • Reading this article, it hints that there may be a nationwide price cut soon..

    I'm holding out for £199, which I expect to be available at arounnd the launch of the PS3 in a month or so.

    xbox 360 is the best. Im so not interested in the ps3, perhaps when that goes down in price i might. But, as a girl who was never interested in consoles, the 360 has converted me!

    Im currently playing rainbow 6 which is really groovy, and im well excited about the new ghost recon.

    Good i need to shop or something to de boy myself! :p

    only a link to a confirmed news story but it's Makro who are offering. With or without VAT is the question

    As others have already said on this thread, the £199 does not include vat so £235 all in :)
