Amazon's $100 Xbox 360

[tomandshell]

It was advertised on the front/home page of Amazon. There will be another special next week.

 

[Mookeylama]

ah thanks Tom.

 

[Trevolver]

yeah, I tried and failed too. I've been wanting a gaming console for the last half year...I need a distraction...the last game system I owned was a little thing called Sega Genesis...

these things get to be ridiculously expensive...

How'd you guys hear about this?

I had no idea until I read this thread; I have no intention of getting a 360, but if I could of gotten it for $100 just to play Gears of War and Dead rising it would have been worth it.

I'll be holding out for more shipments of PS3 though, I too have my heart set on it.

I heard about this on G4's Attack of the Show. I did think about it, but since I don't even have the $100, I let it pass.

oh well i missed it.

I was at my parents and they have dia-up. So I didn't even try.

At 10:59am, the page loaded fine, but it wasn't for sale yet. Then I hit refresh, and it said 'waiting for Amazon.com'. The page didn't load until 11:09am and by then of course it was long gone. What I want to know is, if it was so slow for us, who the heck did get it to load? 1000 people didn't have load times or what?

Amazon.com employees.

The exact same thing happened to me, except I didn't get the page to reload until about 1:15 CST.

 

[tomandshell]

Don't feel too bad, guys. My page loaded at 11:01 and it was already gone.

Then I clicked the link to get the runner up deals and that took a good ten minutes to load. By that time they were gone.

 

[DarkArtist81]

Yeah, I didn't even know about it....

Holy crap!

According to an email from Amazon it sold out in 45 seconds.

I was too busy enjoying my Wii to care. I did hear about this, but kind of forgot. Seeing that I only care about a total of 2 games, I don't think I'd have enjoyed it to the max.

Sheesh, 45 seconds to sell out? I never had a chance...
