Amazon: Xbox 360 Arcade + $100 Gift Card for $199

Quote from mehul73 : I think unless you are on some forum and well informed, you would not have got on this deal which lasted only few seconds.

Actually i dont live here and found the deal from an email amazon sent me.

So it seems that everyone with prime did not see the -.01 discount, am I right?
I spoke with some idiot rep and said I did not get it so he canceled, waiting for next deal.

Quote from Mark2276 : Got to love the half truths and lies on threads like theses (mob mentality in virtual form). I called amazon and they are well aware of the issues (as they r getting a ton of calls about it). My rep could be bsing m (she made a note on my account ot send the $100 code), but if your got to add it using the link using the gold box add to cart and even if it doesn't show the 199.98 in confirmation (mine showed 199.99) they will still honor the deal. This makes sense as they have more of these going off in a few hours. So why would they piss a bunch of people off when they have more anyway? So my guess is you won't get the deal if it doesn't show 199.98 unless you call and ask about your order and make sure.

This makes sense guys. For all the times we said "DO NOT CALL!!!" ... now is the time to throw that rule out the window!

Quote from echostorm : Hmmm I went through the Gold Box link and had the $30 console credit already applied in my account and it auto applied that $30, but the price of the Gold Box'ed Xbox went up to $199.99 (not .98), I called and a CSR assured me and documented on my account that I would get the $100 promo credit, and if it didn't come by the time I received the product, I could call in and claim it through marketing. Anyone else have the same problem?

Yes, I didn't see the goldbox discount on my invoice either.

I called Amazon about my $0.01 gold box discount. They confirmed I ordered through Goldbox and that I will receive the card, but I still don't believe. I Asked for proof I will receive the discount card. She hinted at the fact the ANY Xbox 360 arcade unit purchased between the times of 6:00am PST to 7:59am PST and 11:59pm PST on 12/31/2009 will get the $100 discount.

I don't know what to believe.

Quote from DN22 : got it, checked out in lik 10 seconds. anybody thinking of possibly ebayng the promo code? or is it account specific?

The amazon rep said the code can be used on any account, so yes you can sell it. Thank the lawd.

Once entered though, it can only be used on that account.

Just got off the phone with amazon and i have the $199.99 price and got the deal. I am getting a confirmation email also from them and they said as long as it was in the time frame and you clicked the box in the gold deal. That it will be honored.

Quote from rui : So don't call. I emailed...

Same goes for emailing. If you don't get a reply you like the first time, just fire off another email. Repeat if necessary.
