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).

i signed up for MS Insider, an hour later i had an invite for the bundle. So you have to get a game and extra controller. Shipping for me for the console was 12/30
can anyone else confirm that this works? does anyone know if you join this program, do you HAVE to install preview builds or is it voluntary even after you sign up to actually download?

I signed up and did not download the program. I'll reply if it works.

I think OP may include higher end option like elite controller or Madden + tax. Bundle is required to have a game and a controller, and the cheapest are not go over $600 before tax.
Ah..that makes sense then; $220 for $60 controller and $60 game just doesn't make sense. Most of these 'bundles' seem to be pretty bad deals, from what I've seen.

I get to choose everything for the bundle and when i click review and checkout it just takes me to a page on microsoft. It does not add to cart or anything as if i never built a bundle. Any way to fix this?

Edit: I used Chrome and it ended up working

I got the email on the 19th and placed my order. I got the game and the controller, but the Xbox itself is still pending (they've placed and removed a hold for the price of the Xbox on my card a few times, which has been rather nerve-wracking) with an estimated arrival date of 12/1.

I went ahead and ordered one. I don't game at all. My son does and I'm not sure i want him to play xbox games. (Most are rated Mature). How much money can i make selling the console, controller and the game?

I've gotten quite a few of these, but the link never works. I hope someone gets one or two.
