i have a 700 dollar bundle at toys r us waiting in the first shipment guaranteed, and also still have one 360 premium at ebgames. tru's shipments have already been cut they were getting 20 to 30 and now they are only getting 8, and im number 6.

I guess either way youll get one or maybe even 2. Sell one on eBay and make a lot of your money back. To make it more enticing include one of the games from your bundle that you wouldnt mind to give up.

Nothing is a guarentee unless you have it in writing otherwise it is just your word against theirs. Soif you have it in writing I would feel secure if they just told you verbally then I would not put much weight on it.

trust me i have nothing to worry about i talked to the manager of toysrus and he said their only taken 8 perorders 1 person already perordered witch leaves 7 then i perordered one and he scratched it off the list so yea that and he guaranteed me a xbox 360 and i believe him so im not worried

wow, i'm surprised...my EB is receiving between 40-60 360's at midnight launch, and that's after the shortage. still, seems like a lot...

I'm number 5 of 8 at my TUR. I guess there's always a chance that the shipment will get cut. I highly doubt that they'll get less than 6 in though. Personally I'm not worried. 8 systems seems like a bare minimum. Any less than that and MS shouldn't even bother giving them to ToysRUs

i dont wanna start a new thread for this, but i was at compusa today, and an employee told me theyr getting less than 5, and that the employees would probably get them all. it kind of pissed me off. i thought about complaining, and maby the manager would guarantee me one just as a way of apologizing, and to make me happy (i work at a store, and they do that kind of stuff) but i didnt feel like being a dick.

well i doubt it would work, but you can try. If he let it happen once whats to stop everyone from trying?? trust me people are going to be angry everywhere its juts somthing people are going to have to deal with. think about it, how many people are going to want to talk to a manager on the 22nd for one reason or another?? thousands. al they have to do is sayim sorry there is nothing i can do and thats going ot be it.

Damn dude, be a dick! I used to work as a tech in CompUSA back when I was a high schooler and management never let us touch that crap. There have been really cool items that have come in, but no employees were allowed to purchase them. I say that you should be a dick and try to get your rightful 360.

Stupid CompUSA :mad:

You're so lucky booger2000.

Yeah, originally, my local EB was slated for 80+ consoles. I suppose this is being cut almost in half, which makes me nervous... they should get around 60.

Again, I'm number 44...yet i was told that i am guaranteed for midnight. I hope I don't get some nasty surprise phone call from EB within the next 10 days. Especially since...

I JUST GOT ALL MY 360 MONEY TOGETHER YESTERDAY!!

sorry all, I had to mention that...I was worried for quite some time, but now I can rest easy! :laugh:
