AMAZON DOTD 02/29/12 - Xbox 360 4GB Console = $179.99 AND $25 Credit

Yeah, great deal. Especially for those of us with Amazon credit. $155 delivered for a new system is hard to pass up if you're in the market for one...
 
I JUST purchased a 4gb 360 from them Monday night for 179.99. I went with them over Target because I had trade credit and CC points I could use. Jumped on live chat, 30 seconds later, I've got the $25 promo credit as well! What a great way to start my day!
 
Finally bought a 360 for my father this morning cause of this deal. Thanks for the head's up, OP! I was hoping Amazon would match Target's deal.
 
Ordered one for $179 yesterday without the GC offer.

It was getting ready to ship this morning, so I contacted them to see if they could add the GC to my account.

Nope.
Had to cancel my order and buy it again.


Not trying to sound like I'm complaining, there was no sales tax or recycle fee, so it's still all good.

It's been said a million times but it is such a retarded policy.

I understand Amazon adjusts its prices randomly throughout the day but unless the DC shows "Delivered" the buyer should not be denied a PM or offer upon request.
 
Picked one up - I was hoping they'd match Target. I've been needing to pick up another since my 07 box red ringed on my after a long night of ME3 multiplayer. With the Chase freedom 5% bonus this quarter with amazon purchases that'll take another 9 off!

Wow. I ordered Monday night and they gave me the credit no problem. I always recommend using multiple methods of contact if your first try doesn't go your way. If you used chat, try email. You'd be amazed how one customer service rep will differ from another.

My 360 was at the point of no return- shipping soon, so I couldn't cancel it, and an email wouldn't be fast enough.
Hopped onto chat and the CSR canceled it for me, then I left and ordered it again.


Had no problems in the past.

Ex; The same day a HDTV I ordered was supposed to be delivered, Amazon lowered the price $30.
I contacted them and they refunded the money right then and there.
It was back in my bank account before noon.
 
I hate that I'm even considering getting this. I have a fully functional console, do I really need one for the office?

The answer is no. (but I'm still pondering)

U think that is bad? I got this one to get rid of my glossy slim because i am tired of all the dust and fingerprints it attracts (I move my xbox once a week)

My excuse is getting a new warranty (doubled by my CC) and i just got a 320 gb hard drive for 45 bucks so if i sell the 250b gb slim for 200 - 230 range i @ least break even (AC)

:whee::whee:

Same here. I didn't expect them to honor the $25 credit match so easily. :applause:
