Costco Xbox 360 pricing?

Debating if I should buy the Xbox bundle w/ GOW and RR6 free from FS now, or wait to see what is offered come Xmas and Boxing Day time???

I think you need to take into account the unlimited return policy of Costco into consideration. The MS one is what, $60? With the failure rates of X360's I think it's something to consider.

I'd love to see a GOW package with 2 wireless controllers for $499 from Costco. Work in a WiFi link or HDDVD if you really want to make it sexy.

That's kind of what I got:

I ended up going to Best Buy tonight and had them price match FS for this bundle... they didn't have Ridge Racer in stock, so they offered me another game (Kameo). I didn't want that, so I asked if I could use the credit towards a second wireless controller and they said yeah. I also wanted the 3-year service plan (don't trust the reliabilty of these Xboxes), so I asked if I could get a bit more off. They agreed to give me the controller in the bundle (RR6 credit plus warranty discount). So in the end, I paid $499 for the Xbox Premium Bundle w/ GOW, GRAW and an extra Wireless controller + $90 for 3yrs piece of mind. Not too bad I thought... I'm pretty happy

Who burns their games here. Who wants to know about it?

Hmmmmm... I just checked the Costco.ca website this morning.... The Premium bundle has been removed from the site... maybe they're in the process of updating their pricing?.... (as per my previous post)

wow, that's a sick deal. i have to sit down and compare this to the other futureshop deal coupled with the $50 of $500 coupon.
