Where the link for the $899 one? All I see is $999 and $1499, Also it says ETA is 12/12, chances are they wont have it then.

This isn't even on the 360 locator... I don't believe this thing anyway, at around 1AM the other night it said Toys R Us and Amazon had 360's for about an hour, even though it kept saying it just updated. Every link was sold out.

Good find, but I think it is still risky. Worth the risk if you are in an area where you probably can't buy one in the next 2 weeks though  wink.gif

They have had bundles for sale on gamestop.com since launch day (11/22).  I ordered mine that day as soon as it came up on the site. They had at least 4 different bundles that were different then the two being listed now. The one I ordered is called the Silver Bundle and was $839. Interesting how gamestop is doing it with these massive bundles that don't save you any money at all. Oh well. The shipping charge sucks too, but I figured why not order it and if I come across a 360 locally, I can always cancel the order from gamestop. Nice to see that they have a printed shipping date. Hope it's accurate.

Those bundles are ridiculous.  I could afford it but I refuse to buy bundles like those on principle alone.   I'd be willing to spend $500-600 for a two or three games and an extra controller because I'd buy those anyway, as long as one of the titles was PGR3, and the other was Madden, Tiger Woods, or something ending with 2K6.  But not 1000-1500 for a bunch of crap launch titles that don't interest me in the slightest.  I like sports and driving on my XBOX.  Shooters are best in the world of WASD+mouse.

I'm really thinking about that bundle too. I was looking to spend $600 on the premium and games. If it was only $800. What pisses me off is I had a feeling that my local walmart might have one so I go in and buy a few things. Then I come home fire up the pc come to the xbox-scene forums and bam cc had some on sale. I was too late. If I had just came home right away I would have got one.

Boy $1000, is it worth it? I could always sell one of the controllers and the games I don't want.

I purchased this bundle as well (about an hour after it was posted) and got the same order list (statuses) as bigjoepo.  Here's hoping to this thing actually shipping monday =)  Curious about one thing, though.  Since the items are all listed seperately, anything stopping us from simply returning the items we dont' want?  Checked the Gamestop return policy and didn't see anything that would prevent it.

Post by: bigjoepo on December 08, 2005, 12:11:00 PM
I just called and spoke to a very nice representative and she said:

1. They're getting shipments of the bundles tpday/tomorrow and that is what caused the sale on the site
2. The site WILL NOT sell more than the number they are receiving
3. Despite the "backordered" status of some of the items, they are all arriving in a bundle to their facility so they will be filled as a bundle, not shipped separately.
4. They will be shipping Monday, so I should have it Tuesday
5. If anything changes they'll email me (duh)

but she was very sure about all this, and I mentioned how pissed everyone is online that stores aren't filling pre-orders but they're online and she laughed and said yeah thats how it goes she's heard it before but I said hell I got mine I don't care anymore smile.gif

SWEEEEEET.  I see the light at the end of the tunnel, and it's only 5 days away!

Having the order NOT shipped seperately is a big relief, since I can just cancel the order if they can't deliver it before x-mas.

Post by: jsuds on December 08, 2005, 12:38:00 PM
one small, but important note to all those considering or who already have ordered this bundle. Do NOT choose a separate shipping and billing address. This will void your order. I made the mistake back in November and everything looked good until a week later when I got an email stating that my order had been cancelled because of this. Luckily I called Gamestop.com and they said it happened to a lot of people and all I needed to do was give my order number and they re-instated my order (it was still in the system).  What's dumb was that the site gives you the option of changing your shipping address. For this particular order, they should disable that feature and save themselves and their customers a lot of headaches. The only place that mentions this "rule" is in the fine print.

I'm tempted to order one of the $999 bundles, but there is only one game that I want in the bundle, I dont need three controllers and two play + charge kits. Does anyone know if you can return just parts of the bundle?
Title: Xbox 360 Bundles On Sale At Gamestop.com
Post by: jsuds on December 08, 2005, 01:24:00 PM
there's a market for it on ebay for sure at least. That's what I plan on doing with the one game from my bundle that I don't want. Just put it up on Ebay and let it sell. It would be interesting to see what gamestop's policy is on returning pieces of it's bundles.

Post by: GetLoose on December 08, 2005, 01:33:00 PM
yea I have the same problem, I ordered the Turbo Bundle for $999 and I dont need 5 of the six games, and I dont need the extra other stuff, what stores would take unopened stuff and give me cash for it so I can pay off the debt from this on my credit card.

Post by: JakeStriker2 on December 08, 2005, 02:07:00 PM
Well I am in shock now.  I called Gamestop to confirm that the new bundles will ship on Monday and the rep told me yes, as long as your credit card goes through.  There was no hesitation or anything about if they get their shipment.  

What really sucks though is I forgot I have a damn business trip that I am leaving for on Tuesday night which means I will get my system and have to leave town before I can even play the damn thing.  Argh!

On a side note, the people on the phone at gamestop are really nice.  Quite a change of pace from the fine folks at Walmart and Target that I have been stalking.

Well fingers crossed.

Post by: AndyJay on December 08, 2005, 03:42:00 PM
I ordered one of these too (I passed up chances at huge bundles earlier and feel a bit stupid buying the $999 one now, but hopefully I can sell off a lot of the stuff I don't need for close to what it's worth). Anyway, I was getting scared that they were still selling them through most of today, worrying that that were just taking as many orders as they could and people would get screwed again.  It's a relief that they are not for sale again (for those of us that bought I mean), hopefully this means it's real.  (and yes I read that people have called and they confirmed they really were getting this many, but it's not like people aren't being lied to about 360s all over the place)

Becasue M$ has made me so paranoid - I called my CC company to let them know that I was expecting this purchase to go through.

ah, cool, we're in the same boat.

You're right though, the fact that the order went through on your AmEx card is a positive sign. Gamestop says specifically that they won't charge until the order is completed and ready to be shipped. I logged onto my AmEx site and looked, but nothing charged to my card yet  unsure.gif  but... maybe the site hasn't updated yet <crosses fingers>

ull prolly get urs after the demand is dead and u can just as easily pick it up at target


Really? They had similar bundles before launch date. Then those all sold out. Then on launch day, they released different bundles (EA, Silver, etc).  That's the one I ordered. But even if you're right, why would they ship to the people who ordered these "new" 999 and 1499 bundles and not the people who ordered the bundles way before? Doesn't make too much sense, but then again, none of this Xbox 360 craze does!

hey Dan, you didn't respond to my last post. I was just curious what your logic is to why the people who ordered this new bundle would get shipped before the people who ordered the previous bundles, almost a month earlier? Did you hear/read something? Curious as to why you would think that.

Doubt it, that's why I asked how he could make such an assumption. This is what he wrote:

" i dont think anyone who ordered the earlier bundles post launch will get theres, only the people who spent 999 and 1499"

Doesn't make much sense to me, thus my questioning.  Sounds like since he's in the group that spend 999 and 1499 that he's being optimistic about those people chances, but not the others. It's a known fact that a little after the initial launch on launch day, gamestop.com started offering what they called post-launch bundles. These included a 360 core bundle ($690), an EA Sports bundle ($840), a Silver bundle ($840) an Ultimate bundle ($1190) and the plasma TV bundle ($3690).  These were available for order on gamestop.com for awhile after launch.  Then they were gone and then these 2 new bundles, the Turbo and the High Octane, came out. I don't see why gamestop would ship the 2 bundles that came much later before the ones that were ordered prior.

My $999 preorder also has the 360 with a 'Usually ships in 24 hours' status.  Not sure if that just means that they generally have some in stock, or if my order in particular is in stock.  I'm thinking the former, but who knows?

Post by: jsuds on December 09, 2005, 08:56:00 PM
the status changed which is good news IMO. I emailed them asking if they will wait until all items in the bundle become available before they ship or were they waiting for a 360 shipment to start a partial shipping. Regardless, we won't know until Monday as gamestop doesn't ship on the weekends. Good luck guys.

Mine has switched to ships in 24 hours as well except 3 games are back ordered.  I am going to email them and let them know I don't care if they ship the games later. smile.gif

If you go back and closely read the posts in this thread from the couple of guys that called gamestop, it sounds like all of these bundles were already pre-packaged, and then shipped to the warehouse, so backorder status on the play/charge kit, and the games shouldn't effect anything.  The full bundles should all ship on monday no matter what the site says.  since people's cards have been charged without any further contact about out of stock games from gamestop, I am assuming everything will ship on monday.  Especially because it said on the order page that you would be contacted within 48 hours if a game in the bundle wasn't available to give you a chance to cancel your order...  

Cancel you order...  right...

they could have shipped it with 6 copies of Barbie's horse adventure, and I'd still have bought the damn thing, just to get my hands on one at retail cost!   biggrin.gif

Yup and as of right now only Call of duty is showing up backordered when I check the site. Looks good for us especially with all the other stores getting more shipments as well (like costco).

Mine doesn't say in-processing yet.  I pre-ordered about an hour after it was posted on the forums, so not sure what the deal is there.

I ordered a bundle from Barnes and Noble, but it specifically stated that it was being sold through Gamestop. I checked my order status this morning and it has been changed from Will Ship on Dec. 12th, to Already Shipped. as of Dec. 11th, 1 day early, and on a Sunday no less. I already have a UPS Tracking number, but it hasn't processed though their system, so it doesn't show up.

That does make me optimistic though, because I highly doubt that B&N or Gamestop would totally make up a UPS Tracking number just to try and keep me happy.

We will find out tomorrow.

Edit: And I would wager too that these have been pre-packeged bundles, and that they have had so many to sell. I odreded a bundle that totalled 900$, and my wager would be that they probably had a few more of the more expensive bundels because people are willing to pay for them. Just my .02$

Similar situation for me. The order status on my bundle shows all items have been shipped now and they gave me a UPS number that doesn't register on UPS' tracking site yet (probably since it is Sunday). Looks like gamestop will be sending out a crap load of bundles tomorrow.  hooray.

Looks like from Jsuds original post he has like a 800 - 899 bundle (read page 4).  I ordered my bundle  - the 999 one early on and it still has COD2 backordered and the rest will ship in 24 hours.....  My guess is that the cheaper bundles are done already.... hope we don't get  screwed over a backordered game? I'll definately call them tomorrow if things don't change.

For Jsuds and Xbomodder4life, how much was your bundle? I'm curious is there is a correlation to the cost of the bundle to when it is being shipped.

I payed for a 900$ bundle, how about you guys?


I ordered the "Silver" bundle that was up on gamestop.com on launch day. It was $839, $880 with shipping.

Well I called Gamestop back and the guy said it was still being verified.  But I called my bank and they said the charge was already approved.  The Gamestop guy said I should talk to their verification department, and I jsut did and the operator there said there was nothing else to do and that it was already "released."  My order page still shows "usually ships in 24 hours" for everything though.  She said she thinks that means its being packaged and could ship today but she can't say for sure.  The first guy I talked to, though, didn't really make complete sense and said I should get it by Friday because they are getting another shipment in the middle of this week. So I heard it was being verified and should go out today by an operator, "by Friday" from a different operator, that it's been "released" and might go out today from a different operator, and Gamestop.com still says "usually ships in 24 hours."  Since other people have "shipped" status and tracking numbers, though, I'm worried.  I'm so tired of this searching... sad.gif

Hope that's not the case.  I'd rather not sit in a queue w/ a $999 bundle.  Ah well, that's what I get for being to cheap to pre-ordering the $700 bundle this summer =)


In all honesty, it probably wouldn't have made a difference.  You may still be in the same boat even if you did order the $700 bundle this past summer.  There just wasn't enough to go around, even for pre-orders.

I agree with snacky - If I wanted to sit in a que I'd do it for a $399 machine not a $1000 bundle. I'm going to call them after work - there is no way as early as I ordered that I'm at the end of this que. The kept selling them for like 8 hours after I ordered ... unless they weren't keeping track of when orders were placed.

ok everyone

Official answer from like 2-4 people I bothered today on the phone

Apparently they had a 'hiccup' in the system and my 4AM order was knocked back to 10AM

Im sure other people were effected too from it

Apparently they didnt ship out stuff fast enough and since I bothered the right people I got knocked up to processing past other people(which I did, minutes after i called)


So basically they are still processing/shipping stuff, just be patient as long as ur credit card dont reject it u will be fine!

Shipping out from 'sunday'-wednesday at the latest

It helps to know the route of the UPS guy that delivers your packages.  I know the guy that delivers packages to my house usually doesn't get there until about 5-6 pm.  I know this through using UPS for packages over and over again.  FedEx comes to the house around 2-3 pm.

There was SOME packaging but I removed it before taking the pic. Also, my UPS tracking page still has origin scan in Dallas as the last thing, and I have mine.  So don't fret, if it says it is on time and scheduled for today, you should get it. I'm about to finish hooking up and gonna play some Need for Speed...then I have to get back to studying. wink.gif

The steel bundle is currently backordered. I asked the customer service guy and he said they would get a shipment by the end of the week. So stay away now as of my post on the steele bundle.

Mine came in yesterday.. I played for about 5 hours straight no problems. As for the heat issue, my first xbox was hot like this the one that I got later was much cooler. But the heat doesn't seem extreme as long as you keep it ventilated. COD2 is Awesome... Not sure what to think about Perfect Dark Zero. Halo 2 worked fine although it didn't look THAT much better to me. I didn't even crack open Madden, Condemed, Quake, NFS.

All in all it's a fine machine.

I placed an order for the steel bundle package on the 13th of dec for overnight shipping. Everything was in stock, then yesterday i received a confirmation and it says that the xbox was on back order! Today i called and asked when it was going to ship, the rep. said it was on a FIRST COME FIRST SERVE basis so i was like FUCK THAT!! I immediately told her to cancel my order. here is the number because the one off the site always has a busy signal. 817-424-2200. I also noticed they changed the number on the site. FUCK GAMESTOP!

I had ordered the steel bundle on the 13th(Very early in the morning).  
Anyway, it's been a rollercoaster this week, kept checking on it, some items would say backordered, then would say usually ships within 24 hours, then backorderd.. krazy, and with that whole episode last night of the premium for sale which was not real and everyone who places an order had it cancelled by gamestop.
Today I checked on that steel bundle, and it was all processing, and now it has shipped.. oddly enough.  It should be here tomorrow, depending on when they get it out, and of course we are getting hit hard with snow and ice , tis the way it is.
I really hope everyone finds one, I know the frustration, but those with more patience will probably get the last laugh. (good bundles or find a system alone and get what they want)
So what is everyone planning on doing with the games they don't want?  Theres about 3 I could dol without, due to having them on the xbox/pc,  does eb have trade-ins rite now for 360 games? Just curious as to what you guys are doing with the stuff you don't want. I wanna get my hands on pgr3/kameo/nhl/ and doa4 when it's released.
