Why oh why do stores display this damned console box and then when you take it up to the pay desk they tell you it's out of stock :mad:
Then when you ask why they are displaying the box in the first place they just shrug their couldn't care less shoulders :mad:
Then when i ask if they display anything else that's not in stock they say they don't have anything else :disapprove:

Ah, that's better, rant over :approve:

Well, finally went the eBay route :evil: but, at least i paid face value :) only paid extra for the postage, bring it on
For any other Xboxer's out there, what can i look foward to, is the online gaming any good etc

Almost got scammed on e-bay for one:mad:

Bid and then noticed the idiot put in tiny writing at the bottom to say that he did not have any in stock and you were paying to reserve on. Immediately e-mailed and told him to get on his bike.

Got an e-mail from another e-bayer who paid him and still not got their xbox. The cheeky moneky is no longer registered on e-bay and is not answering his e-mails. Thats him £6k up as 20 folk bid.:disapprove:

Here's another one on eBay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8250904034&ru=http%3A%2F%2Fsearch.ebay.co.uk%3A80%2Fsearch%2F search.dll%3Ffrom%3DR40%26satitle%3D8250904034%26f vi%3D1)
When you count up the cost of the extras it's almost face value

that happened to me with the slimline ps2! never did get my money back cuz paid through noChex rather than PayPal. Ebay could do nothing about it. If i had though earlier, could have gone to the credit card compnay but was too late:dead::blackeye::mad:
