Default XBOX 360's where??

Apart from ebay does anyone have any tips for getting hold of one by the end of this month (my sons Birthday).

I have had an online pre-order since August and 3rd on the waiting list at my local gamestation but still waiting

Also, tried everywhere locally but no one has stock or has any idea when deliveries are arriving.

Complete shambles.

Any info would be appreciated, otherwise I am going to have to bite the ebay bullet next week .

Cheers

Rich

Try Game, they have posters up in the Manchester store saying they will be getting deliveries throughout January.

Could try gameplay as well. That's where I got mine from. Ordered mine in August and it arrived on the day of release...

There are cores avaliable out there in stores, the Premiums are hard to come by but there are some avaliable.

Mine has been on pre order for what feels like forever, i have abbut another 25 people ahead of me atm but mine should hopefully be sorted within the next fortnight.

Thanks guys, spot on advice - just got a premium from game (they had 2 left) - had to buy one game or accessory with it so got condemned (already had PGR3 & Kameo).

NP

All retailers were rumoured to be getting stocks throughout January, regardless of what some people said, so looks like they are arriving now

Have a look here:

http://www.next-gen-deals.com/xbox-360-uk1.html

Ignore the out of stock listings and look in the buy nows.

As previously mentioned Argos have them in stock online.

Keep your eye on this website, pretty much as soon as anywhere has them in it'll be updated, it's how I managed to bag a premium on 4th Jan:
