Cheapest XBOX 360 (in the UK)?

BabylenTatarsky · Oct 14, 2009, 08:23 PM

Where's the cheapest place to get an XBOX 360?

I don't need an Elite - or even a Core - because I have a 20GB harddrive already.

My brother has one so don't really need any games, except for FIFA10 so we can both play at the same time. And maybe Forza 3 when it comes out.

If there's a bargain Elite to be had, I'd get that (because black is cool, obv) but I'd be happy with an Arcade one.

So, where are the best offers? I don't wanna spend more than £200, and preferably only want to pay a lot less.

There's an Elite with FIFA 10 for £199.99 on ShopTo but the comments raise questions about the production date of the console. Should I be wary of that?

There's the same offer on Play.com, which would easily be preferred over ShopTo, but would the console be the newest type? I don't get XBOX hardware.

Screw that though, I don't need an Elite.

I do want a new console though - not one that'll get the RROD before my Live subscription even runs out!

Others on Play.com:

Xbox 360 Premium Console with 60GB HDD £139.99
Xbox 360 Arcade Console including Sega Superstars Tennis £134.99

I want the Elite with FIFA, but £200 is a lot - especially considering there's already one XBOX in the house! It's black though. Talk me out of it - I'm not made of money!

BLACKKKK!

(Gonna get 12 months Gold Live off ebay for £25, natch.)

I suggest you do what I did. Pick up the 60GB on the cheap and sell the HDD and the wireless controller on craigslist or the equivalent in the UK.

I ended up getting a Jasper 360 for about $140 CAD (~£92) after I sold the accessories.
