$565.00

236,727 Views
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).
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

Although I'm willing to bet they'll arrive before that date, I wouldn't hold my breath on before Christmas however. I have the same estimate.

Was able to successfully able to get refund on my game using the instructions provided earlier. Received email confirmation today.

I received a follow up email a day after my request after the initial confirmation email that has zero info in it. Not sure what to make of it. Body reads

"Thanks for contacting Microsoft Support for Xbox about returning physical products purchased.

Please read the instructions on how to return your items bought from Microsoft for exchange and refund to learn next steps. "

Man, I posted this same thing 10 days ago and got down voted and the post was marked as expired within hours. Hah. This place is fickle sometimes, but I'm glad the word got around.

Good luck all, and merry Christmas. Oh- and screw scalpers who have ruined my COVID experience Frown.

Quote from jmanjust :
For those that placed an order but were then denied a refund on the game via phone, chat, or the automated "request refund" button, follow these steps:
  1. Go here: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/he...und-orders
  2. Click "Why don't I see my purchase in the list?" (note that I already tried and was denied the automated refund request and is no longer shown under the "Request availability" tab.)
  3. Click "I don't see a purchase in my order history"
  4. Scroll to the bottom and click "None of the above apply, but I still can't find my order"
  5. Click "Request a refund"
  6. Fill out the form with the name of the game you purchased and your order number, along with whatever reason you think best fits. I chose "Accidental purchase" and "Already own all or part of the content", and repeated the same in the additional details box.
  7. Click submit.
  8. Cross fingers.
  9. Venmo 10% of your refund to @jmanjust once it's approved. https://static.slickdealscdn.com/ima...lies/smile.gif
  10. ​Profit.
Thanks! worked for me (Diablo II Resurrected refund), now to try to return red controller

I just finished getting my black controller returned and I had 0 issues. I called up and spoke to customer support and told them that when I first purchased the bundle the controller was required but it no longer is, so I would like to return it. They said I had to wait until it was delivered (it was delivered today). Called them back up and got the return label with no issues. Console itself is still pending and set for the same delivery date.

Not sure if any of you guys are going to use it for multiplayer games like call of duty and stuff, but be aware they are having some issues still with latency (not talking about slow internet here, but the time it takes for the controller to talk to the console).
I have had 2 Series X Xboxes already and will sell my second one soon. Glad I didn't get rid of my Xbox One X yet. That plays cod just fine with no problems. The new one was getting worse at times and it is a known problem they are just not showing it as a bug or update on fixing it so I am going to go back and wait. Some people will never have the problem but some playing online shooter games might figure it out sooner or later. I tried older controllers and newer ones and all were having latency problems most of the time.That is just not acceptable with such an expensive console. Good luck! Peace

Just by a day. My initial was 12/1, but I ordered the 20th. So based on our dates they seem to be about 10 days from order to receive on the first batch.

I'm really hoping to get one before X-mas.

Let me know how that goes. I can't find away of talking to anyone to do that return. Is it the same steps at the digital game return? Probably the worst support I've ever seen.

Just sell the controller and take the hit. That's what I ended up doing got $50 out of it so not crying to hard.
