    Judging by the numerous other websites this has been posted on, this deal will not be honored.
    People are having difficulty getting through the checkout, making numerous attempts, and when they do get through they get a confirmation email, followed by a back-order email.

    Perhaps Virgin just felt left out with the Tesco, Woolworths saga, so they thought they would create a little web traffic for themselves?

    Good luck if you go for it, but it will go on backorder and if stock doesn't arrive within 4 weeks your order will automatically be cancelled.

    Worth a try non the less.

    Maybe, but again with aprox 10,000 views of this deal on HUKD before you posted it here i don't think anyone stands a chance.

    Of course have a go, but what gets up my nose is when the orders are cancelled you get some people demanding legal action, watchdog, etc (Like the tesco 360 thread)

    Am I reading the ops's thread wrong or does it not state its the wireless entertainment pack FOR the 360 which is £18.

    I see nothing to say this offer is for the XBOX 360 itself.

    Some people jumping the gun I feel.:p

    Gee, sorry I posted it - I thought maybe some people on here would like a chance at the bargain, however slim it might be!

    I did read carefully and did follow the link and it revealed this:

    Wireless Entertainment Pack - Forza 2 + Wireless Controller(XBOX360)


    Our price: £18.00
    (RRP: £34.99)


    Are you saying they won't honour £18 for an entertainment pack? :confused:

    Please don't get me wrong,
    I'm in no way saying you shouldn't have posted it.
    All i'm trying to state is in my opinion it won't be honored. Others will of course disagree with me, but that is the point of a forum to discuss a deal.

    Fair enough. I doubt it will be honored either but for the sake of a few minutes ordering it you've lost nothing if you don't get it and a nice bargain if you do.
