360 from Holland??

[riwiho]

I am in Amsterdam airport killing some time before my flight and have seen that 360s are £260 for the premium console. Would this be a good buy or are there better deals available back in the UK?

Obviously I will be getting Forza2 and would also like C&C3 and GOW.

I think the current packages over here are £270-280 for the premium, with at least one game thrown in. I think HMV at Manchester Piccadilly station, for example) have it bundled with Forza for £279.99, if I recall their sign.

So £260 for the console alone is no bargain - it's about the going rate.

Thanks for that. I have just been looking on the usual suspect sites (play, gamestation, amazon etc) and you are correct. The console + Forza2 is coming in around the 279 mark so its no great saving. May as well buy new from the UK.


What sort of warrenty do the second hand units come with from Gamestation. I would obviously like to save where possible so if it comes with 12 months it may well be worth considering

That's the one I bought last week - they'll also throw in a second wireless controller for £20.

Did you get it in store?

If you did then that is magic. I should be online tomorrow night and the Mrs is away
