Title: Trade in discounts on Xbox in the UK
Post by: Kurt Angle on October 11, 2002, 04:27:07 AM

In the UK you can now get an Xbox for £129 in you trade in an old console. Basically thats a £30 discount.

So if any of you in the UK were considering an Xbox, dig out that old faulty Snes or megadrive and trade it in.

One guy yesterday actually traded in his N64 to take advantage of the deal!

Ok.. now lets see if we can stay on-topic this time...

It\'s good news for anyone with some old decrepid systems laying around collecting dust.. but it doesn\'t do much for me. First off, I don\'t live in England.. but more importantly I don\'t sell my old systems. In fact.. unless the game or system is complete and utter garbage I won\'t sell any of my gaming stuff. That\'s just me tho.. I love old games.. and would much rather pay the extra 30 pounds.

like i said its just a something i was told, and it could be something that saves you £30 and a old system.

Remeber i said the company in question were going to do it as a Christmas deal. (so i can easy imagne that both EB and Game doing a like wise deal )

example ....£129 for a Console Plus game perhaps ?
