dixons is ok

if you buy console and game which is 464.00 then buy another game
takes it over 500.00 so you get £30 off plus with edd card u get 5% so works out you get the console and 2 games for £460

play.com still have stock for the release date so you should not have to wait long for delivery and you can also go through Quidco

£299 + 3 free games. That looks too good to be true. Games are £40 each and the PS3 is £424 making £544! Can't see how anyone can sell that for £299!

Their T&C:

I think the consensus in the relevant thread on the Moneysavingexpert site
before it was deleted was that the xmasdeals24.com was probably a credit
card details harvesting scam site. It certainly looks very similar to the
avvillage.co.uk site which was allegedly doing the same before Christmas.
It's possible that they are not actually processing payments and then not
supplying the goods but just taking the CC details to use in other frauds.

The address listed is apparently bogus, the company id relates to a plumbing
equipment wholesaler and the terms and conditions are apparently copied and
pasted from the Comet website. Oh and the prices are too good to be true. I
would avoid like the plague.
