    Thumbs up Where did/do you buy your Xbox & games at?

    The headliners speaks for itself fellow XBA homies!
    Your XBA Icon-Ninja Jubei is curious to know where you fellow comrades bought their Xbox consoles and software at!

    I bought my Xbox at Best Buy and most of my titles and accessories come from their too. I feel they have the best prices (at times they run good sales) anywhere.
    EB & Software Ect. are cool too, but I will only go to them if Best Buy is sold-out of a game or if im in a hurry since their more convienient for me.
    How about you all?

    I got my Xbox at CompUSA on launch day along w/ Halo. I barely buy games from there, though. For games, I usually go to Gamestop, Toys R Us, and Best Buy.

    Ordered the box from eb, fastest way to get it here around Christmas time.

    Couple games from EB, a few from Circuit city, and one at Funcoland on a trade-in.

    Got my bundle on launch day at Sears. Was there when the place opened, and they had received four units (small town). Circuit City and Wal-Mart sold out quick, but when I went back to Sears that evening they still had three left. Amazing how many people forget they carry this stuff. I normally look to ebgames.com or Wal-Mart for games. We recently got an EB tho so I'll be looking there too.

    I bought my XBOX at Walmart.

    I get my first-party titles at the MS store for $10 each.

    I've purchased other titles at Funcoland, Best Buy, and Walmart.

    I got my Xbox and first three games at Mediaplay. I've bought games at Circuit City, Amazon.com, Compusa, and Best Buy.

    Hugh_Jass, is the MS store employee and friends only or is it public?

    xbox from sears, 2 games from circuit city, 2 games from EB, I've bought 3 off of ebay, and a couple more from playcentric.com, extra controller from Best Buy and a memory card from target. To sum up, I buy from whoever has the best prices and if I want it urgently then the cheapest nearby.

    they do whats called dumping, they sell a couple of items cheaper than the independant store, so people will go there to buy it, and while they are there they will buy everything else they need, then when no one is going to that independant store anymore it goes out of buisness then wal*mart slowly raises they prises back up
