Buying an Xbox One

Options
Not sure if I am allowed to post this or not but I'm sure someone will put me right! I have been looking for a good deal on an xbox one. Amazon are offering £61 as trade in price on an xbox 360 plus a £30 voucher to be used towards the xbox one. (£297 without kinect) So a total of £91. As I was offered £45 by a high street gaming shop for my 360 I thought this was a pretty good deal. The offer is open until 19th March. Please don't say that I would get more by selling on fleabay! I can't be doing with some scammer sending me back his/her broken one and asking for a refund!
If anyone knows of a better deal, please let me know.

    Would get more money if you sold it privately rather than trade in.


    When I switched to the XBOX one I couldn't be arsed with the hassle of selling and I found GAME gave me a better trade in value as opposed to others. CEX was the worst.

    Don't. Buy a PS4 instead.

    Went for the Amazon deal. GAME offered £45, Amazon £61 plus £30 voucher towards xbox one and it comes with Assassins Unity and Black Flag. Ok, they are both DLCs but still included in the price which was £279 without Kinect. (Took 16 hours to download Unity!!) Now just got to sell all the Assassins games on xbox 360. lol.
    P.S. Already got a PS4...

    Having got both Ps4 and Xbox One. i find the games available for both consoles run smoother on the Xbox. less lag and smoother graphics and gameplay. don't know if it's just me who's noticed this, or has anybody else?

    I have found the xbox one controller is much more sensitive than the PS4, but as I have only played one game on it (Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate) it could be the game.
