Cheap 360's?

[Supafly619]

Hey guys, what's up.

I'll apologise straight away for the thread, as I'm sure you have had many of these before lol. I know what I'm looking for is probably in the bargains thread you have going, but I couldn't be bothered going through all those pages

Basically what I'm looking for is a NTSC Premium package that will not leave a gaping hole in my wallet, although it seems that is how it will end up. So far I've checked on eBay and the prices have been too high, or the postage is too much, or the seller isn't seliing to the UK. I've also looked at sites like MegaXport and Importmadness, and Megaxport has been sold for ages, and although I trust ImportMadness, I am not willing to dish out that much cash.

So guys, is there anywhere where the 360s are going for a reasonable price?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Quite a few of the guys on here imported their 360's from Videogamesplus in Canada (www.videogamesplus.ca).

They've currently got them listed for approx. ?266 + ?52 dhl courier shipping. You also need to buy at least 1 game at the same time but I'd guess you'd probably be doing that anyway? Customs charges will obviously bump things up quite a bit though; ?60-70 at a very rough guess.

VG+ are one of the best online retailers there are & totally dependable. They'll normally smaller packages (games, controllers etc.) down for customs too.

Tronixweb.com are also great for buying US games (again customs friendly) but they don't stock 360 units.

Hope this helps.

On a vaguely similar topic, I've noticed the Japanese versions of 360 games are really cheap at play-asia. Does anyone know of a list or database that shows what Japanese games are region free, have english options etc?

EDIT: Ah, it seems the 360 is launched March 16th in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore, which is where the cheap games are coming from. Will be interesting to see if these are gonna be region free then.
