My IT manager at work managed to get two at list price from Amazon. I had to help him list one on ebay the other day (bit worrying as he is supposed to be IT manager LOL) - no bids yet

There are a few in Aberdeen on ebay - some currently at reasonable prices , but they will probably rocket in the last few hours.

XBOX 360's within 25 miles of AB12 (http://search.ebay.co.uk/ws/search/SaleSearch?sofocus=bs&satitle=xbox+360&sacat=-1%26catref%3DC5&fbd=1&amp%3Bsspagename=h%3Ah%3Aadvsearch%3AUk&from=R6&nojspr=y&fscl=1&pfid=0&fswc=1&few=&saprclo=&saprchi=&fss=0&saslop=1&sasl=&fls=4%26floc%3D1&sargn=-1%26saslc%3D0&salic=3&saatc=3&fspt=1&sadis=25&fpos=AB123JZ&fsct=&sacur=0&sacqyop=ge&sacqy=&ga10244=10425&saslt=2&ftrt=1&ftrv=1&sabdlo=&sabdhi=&fsop=1%26fsoo%3D1&fcl=3&frpp=50)

Bonniescotland....theres a guy on another forum i'm on thats selling one of the core editions with a memory card and the king kong game. Unopened and with recipts.

He payed £300 for it and will probaly accept about £350 for it,as i offered him £320 and he was wantin just a wee bit more. Let me no if u want his contact details, im sure he wouldnt mind. o yeh, and hes from aberdeen, so no much travelling to do to get it:)

Phil, you're missing my point totally, i'm not against you trying to make as much profit as you can, but, it's because you come onto the NMS community trying to maximise your profit from other members that irks me a wee bit
This is not the place, IMO for that, there are other places, ie eBay
With the exception of your item, everything so far sold on this site has been for less than the owner paid for it, ie, second hand goods sold at second hand price

A friend has recommended this site they have used them several times and say it is fine

h'mm just noticed this "IMPORTANT NOTE: Please note that the systems will not play all games from all countries (most titles from America and Europe will not boot because of region-locking"

Gismo

I would defo steer clear of that, it must be able to play European games

I managed to get a premium one from game today, but saying that, they're probably all sold by now. Ask Game (or similar shops) if they are getting another delivery and when, then go in at 9am in the morning and hopefully you'll be lucky. Hope you manage to get one.

The controller on the Revolution was a bit of a surprise. Wonder how good it'll be.

I do like the look of the Revolution, but I think (like most people) I'll buy a PS3. I've always had Playstations, with the odd Nintendo along the way (still have my N64 to play Goldeneye and Perfect dark - never beaten in my view!) The PS3 just looks awesome and, I suspect, will blow the Xbox out of the water.

In saying that, I'm very intrigued as to the controller Revolution. Plus, It looks by far and away the best.
