Default Today..walked into Game and bought a Xbox360

Seemed a bit surreal as I walked in, was a bit quiet and asked if they had any 360's...the answer was only "these 4 I'm putting on the shelf"......Father Xmas has come!!!!!!

Seems to be plenty of Core systems about in the shops . . . . or was this a Premium pack ? The Premiuim is the one fetching the bigger £'s.

Same 'ere Mog, I phoned up GAME on the off chance at 3 p.m. and they said we're closing at 4 but we have one premium xbox360 left from this mornings delivery that has been reserved but they haven't turned up for it. If you can get down here in the next half an hour and wait til we nearly close you can have it!!

I jumped in the motor and drove the 12 odd miles, parked up got to the store and its still there!! A tense 20 minute wait before they say I can buy it!!!

What a lucky barsteward I am, this Xmas Eve is gonna be feckin wicked!!!

Fecking serves them right, brought a core system as i didn't think i was going to get my premium one from play.com and it turned up the day after, sold the core system and HD to a fellow Netter for what it cost. I could have sold it for profit but my fear was they'd become readily available and i'd be stuck with it, sold it with in 5mins of posting it on here
