Did you guys pick up anything from Expertzone? I feel like I receive a package from them every two weeks or so. I finally bought the Fable series because I've always wanted to play those games. I spent $100 and received 20,000 MS Points. Have no idea when I'm going to use them, lol. I think the best deal I received from them was probably the Xbox 360 Slim and 320GB HDD for $180.

There's a restock as well. I picked up another controller and the wireless network adapter for my Xbox just in case I move my Xbox into another room any time soon. I definitely need some more points though.

i hardly order from them.

i am however trying to order now and i cant click on anything to add to my cart


edit: i'm not verified. seems I have to reverify every week or so

That sucks...I thought it was every three months. They added 12 Month Messenger Kits to the site as well. I believe it was $20.90 for Expert level. Snagged two of them. I just noticed that they have the wired black controllers. I didn't know they even came out with that model....

That doesn't sound right. You should only reverify once every 3 months. Contact support.

Got me the 12 month starter bundle. Nice deal for 21 bucks. I will try to sell the headset and chat pad.

I have purchased a ton of stuff from the site. My recent surprise was ordering 2 black wireless controllers and getting the transforming d-pad and play and charge kit bundles. Anytime controllers come back on sale i try to pick them up as they make good gifts. This is such a great site if you have access to it i am glad other CAGs use it.

Oh and you cant beat the free copy of Windows 8 promo they ran a few months ago.

I know that's right. I still can't believe that copy of Windows 7 Ultimate I received last year for $10. It came with two codes (32Bit and 64Bit) so I was able to install Windows on my new custom desktop and my mom's laptop. I think I have about 12 controllers between two systems. I wonder if we'll see any special edition controllers? I missed out when they offered the Gears of War controllers the last time around.

i just installed win 7 ultimate on a old laptop I have. i like it but I feel I want to use Win8, I don't suppose any of you cagers/expertzone members would like to pass a code my way would you?

I've only been a member of EZ for a little while but the deals they have are really worth it on some things. 12 months of Xbox Live for $25 is nice. Controllers are cheap, and they have an OK selection of games at discounted prices. I'll be picking up Halo: CE Anniversary for $14 soon. The promo they are running right now is a free key to MS Office 2013 if you need that.

I know that's right. Once you hit Expert level, that's when you get the best discounts. During their holiday promo, I was able to snag five years of Xbox Live, and 20,000 points for roughly $170. I believe there's a cap on how many points/subscriptions you can buy so I believe I'm maxed out on those. I pick up the controllers whenever they're available. I have roughly 12 controllers around the house between the two consoles. I think the cheapest the controllers went for was $15 or so. I'm enjoying the hell out of that 320GB Xbox I got for $180. Such a steal! I spend too money on this site, lol.

Besides playstation and bethesda is there any other programs going on?

Damn I miss being able to use expertzone

There's a PS program? Damn, how did I not know about this?

EA has a program like Expertzone as well. I think it's like, EA Retail Professionals or something like that. It's been awhile since I checked it out, though.

If you need a referral for the PS site, send me a PM. I keep that thread updated so you'll know when new items are available.

If anyone would like a referral to the EA Retail Professional program I would be happy to give them . Just PM me your email address, first name and last name. It gives both of us a nice point bonus, and you don't have to spend anything at all. The EA program is completely free unlike Expert Zone.

I used to be part of a similar program many years ago when I worked at GameStop. I think it's the same thing but revamped and I can't remember my login information. =(

I had tons of MS games from that program though. Great place to get awesome freebies.

Yeah, it's the same thing but they charge for EVERYTHING now, even cheap piece-of-crap pens and such.

I hit my cap on XBL Gold/MSP/controllers a long time ago so there's never anything for me to use my points on.

The EA Professionals program only allows Best Buy employees to earn prizes, so don't waste time signing up if you're not one.

They haven't updated the site in a very LOOOONNNGGGG time so the last game I received from them was Mass Effect 3 which I still have yet to play through....

@MetalSlugger, you don't buy any of the games from Expertzone? I recently bought the Fable series, and the two other Halo games that were missing from my collection. (ODST, Halo Wars). Some people believe they are going to put the Surface tablet on there, but I highly doubt that notion. I wonder if they're going to add the new Xbox to the site once they launch...

I bought all of those from EZ years ago so they aren't available to me anymore. All I can see are all of the shitty Kinect titles and Halo 4 but I don't need that since I got the LE at BB. Plus they jacked the prices of new games up so much...I miss the days of getting two copies of a $60 game for $20 and flipping them to repay the $25 LE I ordered. The Halo 4 LE was $40ish this year...not worth it to me. I am looking at getting a mobile mouse for my new netbook but other than the annual Office/OS download promo I barely participate anymore.

Anyone who took the Office 365 accredation before today can now get their download key. Anyone who has yet to can do it before Feb. 15 to get a key.

I didn't know that. That sucks. I installed Office 365, and it's pretty cool. I'm going to snag that $10 Professional copy from the HUP program so I can keep Office on my computer after the year is up. What's the chance they add the new Xbox to the site after it launches, whenever it launches? I'm hoping they add some of the limited edition controllers to the site as well. I'm maxed out on most of the items as well.
