GameStop Will Have The Xbox Series X In Stock Again Today

Good luck to anyone legitimately trying to buy these for themselves or one of their family members/friends. I hope you get it. Scalpers, I hope you don't get one but you will so I hope something goes wrong with your order. Lol

Does anyone know if you can return the other items in a bundle and get credit for them? I'd actually buy a bundle if it meant I can return what I don't want.

Bundle-only, to me, feels like another crappy way to get more money from people. I don't want the extra BS, I just want the console.

@GamingFan4Lyf

Usually not as new.

@GamingFan4Lyf Agreed- I think bundles are kind of a dirty way to make people buy more games and accessories. It’s a shame.

@Grot

Agreed. These bundles are just another way to price gouge the consumer. It’s ridiculous & almost just as bad as the scalpers.

Good luck to those trying to secure a console

Annnnnnnnd they're gone.

I seen on Xbox store yesterday they were available(Series X). By the time i was ready to buy one (a few hours later), sold out again lol

Best Buy made them available today and HOLY CRAP I GOT ONE!!!!!!

The security to get the console was actually tight - I had to provide 2 different verification codes that were sent to my phone just to complete checkout - not to mention you have to actually wait for the Add to Cart button to show up a second time after clicking Add to Cart in order to add the item. Kudos to Best Buy.

I am just hoping my order doesn't get canceled.

Should be available for Pickup next Wednesday the 27th!

HECK YES!

Where I live they have some in stock but will only sell in a bundle with their Gameware accessories, rechargeable battery pack, charge station, earphones, game storage tower and controller. Sounds good on paper but their just trying to sell their own garbage items

I got one! And just the other day the disc drive on my xbox one stopped working so now I can use my series x for physical games

Managed to get a series x today through Eb Games in Canada. They would only sell it through the all access pass though so that made it a bit more expensive than I would have preferred. Just waiting on final approval and for the shipping notification...

I haven't had an Xbox since halfway through the ps3/360 Gen. I've mainly.been a Playstation guy as the games suit me more. Gamepass is appealing as it prevents me from having to buy multi-plat games that launch there.

@FraserG I’m so pumped! I was actually able to get one through all access at GameStop. The shipping date is February 15 but idc. I’m just glad to finally get one finally!

You can pick up a console on e-bay in the U.K for between £500 and £550, sure there are higher prices, but there are loads of consoles in the lower price range.

There are around 3600 consoles listed on the site, looks like the greedy scalpers have saturated their own marketplace.

The PS5 is still north of £750, but that's only because there are only around a 1000 listings for them, as more scalpers buy up stock and sell them on the site, the prices will fall. There are only so many consoles that can be listed over £750 to be viable.

This will be my first Xbox since the original in the early 2000s. Yesterday, I got my pre-order in at Best Buy for a Series X and can pick it up next week. Today, MS raises the Live memberships to $120 per year. Honestly, I'm already thinking I made a mistake.

@GamingFan4Lyf the bundles are the only way to stop scalpers.....that’s why they are doing them right now.... a scaler doesn’t want to buy he extra ***** as it cuts into their profits....and just do what i have done...take that extra ***** and go to walmart and say you got it as a gift and need to return or exchange them(depending on if you use walmart and can use the credit.

@Hordak already dropped the price back down and now you dont even need gold if you play a F2P game

@Blessed_Koz Well if you do that, what's stopping a scalper from doing the exact same thing? Sure it's a hassle, but in the end they actually get more money because returning something to Wal mart "as a gift" will get more money back since most bundles reduce the prices of some of the items in said bundle (even if it's only a few bucks).

Now they have a console on sale on eBay for a ridiculous cost, and a $200 gift card at Wal Mart.

@GamingFan4Lyf scalper buy one is not the issue its the bots buying hundreds off them, you can only return so much at walmart without a recipe when it comes to electronics as at least mine in jersey ask for your drivers license and enters your license number to prevent you from returning a lot of the same item....also a scalper using a bot isn’t going to want the hassle of returning thousands of dollars of things for walmart store credit its the reason why bundles take time to sell out while straight up x/s are gone in seconds...bundles stop the scalping bots from buying the whole inventory...i have also been told that gamestop will return the items if you dont want them...but you have to do it in person at store.

@Blessed_Koz Good on GameStop.

Anyways, it’s a non-issue for me now anyways since I managed to secure one from Best Buy when it surprise-dropped Series X units.

Now I just have to get my hands on a PS5 to complete my current-gen console collection.
