I didn't see this posted, if it is, my bad. Anyway, PC Richards has it on sale for $230 this week, its in the weekly ad and available on their webpage. You can pricematch it to circuitcity and save an extra $5 through their 110% price match guarantee.

Big YMMV on the PM... CC most of the time will PM a physical store near its location... not a website

I wouldn't expect great home delivery service from home appliances, and the instore experience can be a bit of a hard sell.
But they are a legitimate business with a large store presence in the New York/New Jersey area.

Love how the picture is a Pro/Premium unit with HDD.

Yeah, I know they're pretty big, at least here in NYC, so its definitely safe buying from them. I'm sure even Cheapy knows the place.

Not sealed/new, but basically so. May have been a return, might have been a stockboy with sloppy hands and a boxcutter. The first one lists only damage to the outer box. Everything from warehousedeals is marked as used, but it's not like they're trade-ins.

I got a PS3 remote from there that mentioned cosmetic blemishes. Item was pristine, but missing batteries.

I didn't realize the arcade units had hdmi outputs. Might need pick one of these up for hi-def. Should be able to use my old harddrive and sell my old core for cheap.

I would go for the BRAND NEW Xbox Premium 20GB. Without the hard drive, I see little reason to own a 360 because HD-DVD is dead so the 360 is now a pure gaming machine. If you want to game, being able to download maps, arcade games, demos and generally experience Live is a must!

Unless you plan to shell out $100 for the 3-month Live service + 60GB hard drive, then you might as well buy the 60GB Pro bundle. In many cases, 20GB is enough though and a year from now, we will get 120GB drives for $100!!!

That is of course personal opinion though.
