I GOT FUCKING SCREWED OUT OF MY 360!!!

I FUCKING WENT IN THIS MORNING TO GET IT AND WAS TOLD "OH YOURS GOT BUMPED TO 2ND SHIPMENT"!!! I'M LIKE WHAT THE FUCK!!! I WAS THERE LAST TUE ORDERING 2 MORE GAMES AND EVERYTHING WAS FUCKING FINE - OH WELL "YOU SHOULD OF RECEIVED A PHONE CALL". I FUCKING PREORDERED THE 1ST OF JULY AND I FOUND OUT TODAY I WAS NOT GETTING ONE... THEN THE FUCKER PROCEEDS TO TELL ME HE WILL GIVE "50% OFF OF THE ACCE..." I'M ABOUT READY TO CUT HIS FUCKING THROAT!!!


SO NEVER EVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM EB GAMES THEY FUCKING SUCK!!!

[Brett]

Places like Walmart and Target will be getting new shipments weekly through Christmas. I am waiting to after the holidays anyways because from what I have heard prices will drop right after Christmas, which sucks for all you who pre ordered cause you are locked in at the high price and when I go buy one first of next year when the 2nd batch comes in, I will pay less then all of you

[SilverStoneZ]

its not there fault and actually EB Games got more than most places but when microsoft reliced the actual 1st shipment number they were less than half the projected amount. I know that a few places only got 10 xboxes total and arent expection any more than that each shipment and the shipments are supposed to come every one to two weeks so yeah im in the same boat i gotta wait for the so called secoend shipment.

[Brett]

Did you not say "Do you know who I am? Im an ADMIN on IA bitch!!!"

That works everytime when I go out to eat and shit...lol

[4dmin]

no its totally EB GAMES FAULT... they got their shipment last week when i was there, b/c i was playing their games and console there talking to the guy - he asured us are xbox was here and i purchased more games now suddenly the story has changed and my 360 is gone one of their fucking employees probably took my god damn preorder and bumped me to the next shipment!!! aaaaarrrrrgggghhhh!!!!

[4dmin]

NOW LISTEN TO THIS SHIT WE GET A PHONE CALL WE CAN HAVE A CORE SYSTEM B/C ONE OF THE CORE SYSTEM GUYS CANCEL THEIR PRE ORDER



so now i'm stuck get the core system; which doesn't come w/ shit or no 360 until next shipment? and by the way they don't have the harddrives for it either just a single memory card

[Brett]

Paul Id wait then for the one you want, dont get the cheap one, you will regret it and spend more to get what you want. Just be patient and wait for the good one that gets the HD and wireless controllers, etc.....

[AznTraitor]

hey Paul....this has happened to quite a few people....

theory says that the employees who didnt pre-order wanted one or wanted a extra one, so it's pretty simple to just bump you back and now they have it...

if you look on ebay, there are some that have already sold for $680 bucks...my cousin out in Cali told me his neighbor pre-ordered like 5 so he can sell on ebay.

[Brett]

I have seen them as high as $999 and he even has the amount he paid posted in a picture which was $549 ( was the one w/ 3 games )

it's for all those lazy bitches who didnt pre-order for their kiddies and then all of a sudden remebered that they promised little johnny they'd have the first one..


sucks for Paul though....I'd seriously head back and ask them whats the point of "pre-order" when you didnt even get one? and then I'd hold one arm out and run down the game wall.....because what are they gonna do? most kids who work at EB games are little gamer nerds anyways.

[speedminded]

dammmit....i was like eww a ferrari

[IntegraXTR]

eb games does suck ass and so do some of the idiots that work there.

trust me it took everything i could not to punch this kid in the face... to make matters worse we got their at 715am... EB wasn't doing the midnight thing and told us that they would open at 7am so we got there at 715am i knocked on the locked door and the kid gave me "wait your fucking turn look...".... not like it wasn't 40 some thing degrees this morning and i'm fucking cold so we sit outside for 15 mins untill he answers the fucking door i was pissed before i talked to his dumb ass

i'm sure some douche bag took my 360 - when i orgininally preordered i was # 18 on the list, so that would mean they got 17 or less in... they told us too originally that they were only doing 20 presales to gaurantee everyone a 360

NOW I'M STUCK W/ A CORE SYSTEM W/ NO WIRELESS AND I CAN'T EVEN FIND A HARDDRIVE FOR IT!!!

[SilverStoneZ]

like i said before its not the stores fault blame mricosoft they were the ones promiseing the stored the presales and then a month before reliece cut it by more than half and yes the employees probly bumped there order if they could but tell me you wouldent have if you were in there shoes. anyway i have to wait on mine as well and i was #12 on the list my buddy told me that there store was supposed to get 25 and only recived 10 so not his fault.

[AznTraitor]

also blame MTV....with the promise of round the clock advertising, they were given 150 xbox's to do with as they pleased, and they are giving those suckas away for free..

so that's another 150 subtracted from the few that we were getting anyways..

btw paul, dont be so mad....alot of people are complaining, alot of software and hardware issues and overheating....it's the first series, thats why I didnt want to get one just yet...just waiting for all the lil bugs to get worked out.

[The Yousef]

pw3nd?

[Brett]

Thats why I didnt pre-order, I figure the first wave will have tech issues

[Kristi]

that sucks paul - i'm sorry!

heather and i were laughing last night on the way home - people were camped out in front of best buy for those things!

[4dmin]

I WOULDN'T OF BEEN SO PISSED BUT I WAS THERE LAST TUESDAY NIGHT WHEN THEY RECIEVED THE 1ST SHIPMENT AND I WAS TOLD MINE WAS IN... NOW BETWEEN LAST TUE AND TODAY MINE JUST DISAPPEARED!!! THAT IS FUCKING BS!!!

anyway i got a core sytem now, its not what i wanted but i can still play 360 today like planned... we also got 35$ in rebates. but i can't play Xbox live until i get a harddrive

I STILL SAY FUCK EB GAMES!!!

[Hulud]

i think you should blame people like dtmcnamara
he has 3 premium ones and 4 core ones
he is just selling them on ebay now

its because of greedy bastards like him that you dont have your xbox

[Tiff-O-Bitties]

damn that sucks paul.. i'm sorry!

[USMC_is300]

[Hulud]

Paul, saw some harddrives at walmart. Might want to check there.

[4dmin]

CORE = 300$ AND BUNDLE = 400$

CORE COMES W/: WIRED CONTROLLER AND CAN ONLY PLAY NEW GAMES, DOESN'T HAVE ANY MEMORY NOR CAN YOU PLAY ON XBOX LIVE

BUNDLE COMES W/: WIRELESS CONTROLLER, 20GB HARDDRIVE, HEADSET, CAN PLAY OLD GAMES AND IS XBOX LIVE READY

oh i posted

[Hektik]

Man that sux.

[B16a2 Civic]

Paul, you seem mad...is that an accurate guess?

[DemonEyez]

theory i read was microsoft had to adjust some issues with the xbox 360's so that hindered how many they could ship out at first. also i believe they released that they will not be able to fill all the preorder's till late january. sucks for microsoft and people buying the 360.

i personally dont think its a great system after playin some of the games.

[turbowrx]

I got owned also paul. I hate gamestop.... which is ebgames. My store took 20 pre orders. I was # 11. ONLY 6 CAME IN!!!!!!!!!!

OK..thats wierd i just got a call that I can get a core system. hmmmmmm

[Brett]

cause no one wants the core system, I know I wouldnt either, not for what you can get for just a bit more.

[gtikid]

Damn Paul that blows. So no 360 all day and night how you planned?

[God]

i manage an ebgames. microsoft fucked over every ebgames
they allotted us 40 preorders for first shipment and anohter 40 for 2nd shipment
4 weeks ago they call and say we are only getting 20 xboxs for release day
2 weeks ago they say 18
last week they call to say our order got cut again.
friday we got 2 core and 10 premium in

the employee who told you they were in was probaly a fucking idiot.
no one received any premium in shipment till friday at the earliest. the cores have been in for more than a week tho. ive already fired 2 stupid kids this month
and if any ofthe employees took someones preorder they'll be fired asap.

as for people getting more than 1 preorder at ebgames, thats only if they used diff names and phone numbers

anyone with the same name/number in our district got a call saying all preorders other than 1 would be cancelled
