I just checked my email and I was charged the same thing. The only difference with my order is they canceled the regular Series S, but they show 2 Fortnite bundles shipping later.

you ordered 2? Wow, I respect it but good luck with that

The email with the gamepass code shows two fortnite bundles, and one canceled series s for $324.

Then if I hop over to the GameStop app it only shows one Fortnite bundle, and one cancelled series s for $24.09.

Not sure which one is correct and I don’t think gamestop knows either.

Just FYI, the Switch trade in has the extra $40 right now for Pro, just unadvertised. Just traded mine for 260.

No. People only ordered the standalone Xbox Series S AND Xbox Series S Fortnite bundle for $309.99, BUT they are now getting charged either an additional $299.99 (the price of the Xbox Series S Fortnite bundle), $44.99 (the price of 3-Months Game Pass Ultimate), or both.

This part is confusing though. Are we still getting the bundle for $10 or nah? Probably not and it’s just a return but what are y’all interpretations?

To me, sounds like we'll be getting the bundle and being charged $299

Agree. This is how I read it as well. Does anyone else show a pending charge on their card? If so, how much? Why not just cancel and keep the $10 to avoid the return?

So weird because they literally already shipped me one for full price. But the email says we're still getting the bundle.. but also that they're removing the incorrectly priced one (which was the bundle).

Why are you saying "hehe"? "Rest assured you will be receiving the Xbox Series S Digital Edition Fortnite & Rocket League bundle along with the 3 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate.

Because this was our mistake, we will be providing the 3 months of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate absolutely free to you while also removing the incorrectly priced console from your order.

If you’d like to purchase a second Xbox Series S console, please feel free to visit us at GameStop.com where you will find these consoles readily available for purchase."

It sounds like they're shipping a Series S for normal price. I don't think most people actually want one.

Got the cancellation email as well, can't complain about 3 months of GPU for free and a $10 coupon. Trying to decide whether to cancel the bundle or wait for it to get shipped and return it in store on the .0000000001% chance that it actually gets shipped for $10. Probably will just wait and then return it in store.

 

On another note, I just received two of the orders that I placed on BF and all 6 games were original box and art and they sent me a sealed copy of Mario 3D World. Got another 2 orders with 9 games still to come, so hopefully my luck stays the same.

Because they assume you actually wanted at least one of the Series Ss and somehow accidentally got a second one in your cart for $10 (rather than you taking advantage of an unadvertised glitch).

I took a look at the Orders page and while it shows my normal Series S cancelled, it shows that the cost of the bundle is $18. I don't doubt that they're going to charge $300 for it in the end though

I dont believe they will charge until around when/on the day of it shipping

Just got one of my BF early orders in. Sadly my daughter's Xmas gift of Cruisin Blast was of course a brand new, gutted copy.
But the odd part of my order, my Used PS5 Judgement was shipped as a brand new, sealed PS4 copy.

does anyone know if any other game is getting the 30% trade in bonus other than Halo?

 

also, Cyberpunk XBOX is showing a $4 base online (was $9 yesterday) and my local store was still @ $9

The email isn't very explicit on what's gonna happen at all, all of my orders cancelled the full price system but still have the wrong priced ones

I’m starting to get some of my orders in the mail from b2g1 free, so far all of the switch games have a generic case, still a good deal though but I’ll probably just try to play through them all then trade them in or sell them

Did anyone really think there were getting a new Xbox for 10 bucks?

is there any current trade-in promotion at the moment? 50% boost for pre-orders?
