Deal Details
Just got an email from Microsoft inviting me to buy the XBox X available in limited quantities on Microsoft Online Store.

You have to bundle a game and a controller and it all came out to $720.
I was able to buy one for the delivery date of 12/22

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/consol...x-series-x

Check for any emails from Microsoft Store (possibly the junk/spam folder if you have been deleting them)

==Addendum==
- How do you get the above email in the first place?
No definitive answer. I believe I got the email because I made a purchase in the past from the Microsoft Store (and somehow opted in to receving their promotional emails).

Great timing. Check your Amex offers. Had a $75 back after $500 spend.

"Spend $500 or more, get $75 back
Microsoft Store"

DETAILS
Get a one-time $75 statement credit by using your enrolled eligible Card to spend a minimum of $500 in one or more purchases online at microsoft.com/en-us by 12/29/2021. See terms

OFFER TERMS
Enrollment limited. Must first add offer to Card and then use same Card to redeem. Only U.S.-issued American Express® Cards are eligible. Limit 1 enrolled Card per Card Member across all American Express offer channels. Your enrollment of an eligible American Express Card for this offer extends only to that Card. Offer valid online at US website microsoft.com/en-us and via in-app purchases. Valid only on purchases made in US dollars. Not valid on purchases shipped outside of the US. See merchant website for shipping policy. Some merchants may not ship to all areas. Excludes B2B services, Bing ads, Skype, Microsoft Living Well (health center), Microsoft Production Studio, and Microsoft Theater. Offer is non-transferable. Limit of 1 statement credit per Card Member. You may not receive the statement credit if we receive inaccurate information or are otherwise unable to identify your purchase as qualifying for the offer. For example, you may not receive the statement credit if (a) the merchant uses a third-party to sell their products or services; or (b) the merchant uses a third-party to process or submit your transaction to us (e.g., using mobile or wireless card readers); or (c) you choose to make a purchase using a third-party payment account or make a purchase using a mobile or digital wallet. Purchases may fall outside of the offer period in some cases due to a delay in merchants submitting transactions to us or if the purchase date differs from the date you made the transaction (for example, the purchase date for online orders may be the shipping date). Statement credit will appear on your billing statement within 90 days after 12/29/2021, provided that American Express receives information from the merchant about your qualifying purchase. Note that American Express may not receive information about your qualifying purchase from merchant until all items/services from your qualifying purchase have been shipped/provided by merchant. Statement credit may be reversed if qualifying purchase is returned/cancelled. If American Express does not receive information that identifies your purchase as qualifying for the offer, you will not receive the statement credit. Limit 1 enrolled Card per American Express Card online account. The enrolled Card account must be active, not past due, canceled, or have a returned payment outstanding to receive the statement credit. Any benefit earned from this offer is in addition to the rewards (i.e. Membership Rewards or cash back) earned as part of your existing Card benefits, but your ability to earn spend-based rewards for the purchase will be based on the amount after any statement credit or other discount is applied. Amex Offers are dynamic and personalized, so the offers you see may change. For questions regarding your Card Account, please call the number on the back of your Card. By adding an offer to a Card, you agree that American Express may send you communications about the offer. POID: K2X6:0001

Email wording and subject from Microsoft

Limited quantities available: Xbox Series X bundle


Dear Microsoft Store customer,

Because you signed up to receive emails about product offers, we want to inform you that Microsoft Store has just received a limited supply of Xbox Series X bundles that are available for purchase at the Microsoft Store online by clicking this link.

We understand that Xbox Series X consoles have been difficult to find and wanted to reach out to inform you of this availability.

These are available for purchase on a first-come, first-served basis. The limit is one bundle per order, and two bundles per 30-day period. Unfortunately, there is only a limited supply available, and receiving this email does not guarantee that there will be bundles remaining for your purchase when you click the link. If you try the link and the bundle is unavailable, that means we have sold out.

To purchase from the link above, you must have a valid Microsoft account. The link is valid for your account only, and the account must be associated with the email address that received this message.

Thanks for shopping at Microsoft Store,

Microsoft Store team

If you are looking for a series x and do not get this invite, i found the walmart + drops to be incredibly easy to get one.

Sure you pay $13 for the membership (trial members arent included) but if you're there at the time specified you'll get the console without all the troubles of general public drops.

Thats how i grabbed another one for my son the other day and it was very simple.

I received the email a couple days ago and was able to build a bundle and purchase. I received another email just a few hours later and could build the bundle but I didn't buy another one. There is a link in the email that takes you to the website for purchase.

I got the email yesterday and a few days ago, everything worked just fine for me both days. I just didn't complete the checkout. I decided today to buy it and now it's not working after adding the bundle.

If you are getting an error when trying to check out " something is wrong on our end".... Make sure you're cart is empty. I was getting trust error and figured out I already had something in my cart.

I miss the times when bundles gave you a free or discounted item or items. Now, is this even MSRP? Is the tax on a $500 system, $60 game and $60 controller $100? Oof! They really got us by the short hairs.
