Looking for some guidelines: Where did you buy your Xbox 360 Wireless Network Adapter and for how much?

Just trying to get an idea of the best place to go for one (on/offline).

playasia.com I think it came to e65. Shipping is slow though, I ordered it two weeks ago and I'm still waiting for it, but I have used them in the past without any trouble.

i think they are 75euro in peats. not 100% on that though

Adverts €40 second hand, but as good as new

Sad Professor · 27-09-2007 1:34pm

Smyths, it was 80 euro and I had a 5 euro voucher so it came to 75. I was gonna get it from Play-asia but I was worried about getting caught for customs charges.

Doodlebug · 27-09-2007 2:37pm

^^ Exactly!

So €80 is the going price - haven't seen any better myself.

Ebay can save me about a tenner, but customs could scupper that - let us know how you get on, Nephew!

Ah well!

103euro in Virgin.Wat a rip off

Well Playasia shipped my copy of Bioshock the day before my adapter, and I got Bioshock today without any request for monies from customs so hopefully my adapter gets here tomorrow.

There must be a pretty big demand for adapters I tried 15 or more stores in America last month and they were all sold out.

Got mine in currys for €80

super_furry · 27-09-2007 5:23pm

eBay, €48.

Nephew · 27-09-2007 5:28pm

Ebay is renowned for genuine looking fakes tbh. You're best off paying that little bit extra for piece of mind.

Mayshine · 27-09-2007 5:34pm

You can have mine for €60

TheGreatOne · 27-09-2007 6:19pm

Last I heard Peats was €50. I got one off play-asia along with a wireless controller with no bother off customs at all about 2 months ago, but I'd say its still a bit of a risk. I'd get on the blower to Peats.

koneko · 27-09-2007 6:20pm

Peats never have any stock, in fact I don't know if they actually sell them anymore, so I'd go with Play Asia.

Doodlebug · 27-09-2007 11:53pm

Thanks for the info lads!

Checked Peats.ie - didn't find it, though the search function isn't the most streamlined - might give them a buzz anyway.

The hunt goes on!

Play-asia/Ebay are the front runners IMHO so far...

ShaneU · 28-09-2007 1:34am

peats €55

Jip · 28-09-2007 9:35am

Wasn't the Peats price just for a sale they were having, I went a day or two afterwards and there were none left. Are they still selling it at that price ?

koneko · 28-09-2007 9:48am

I have asked in Peats twice since then (a while back and last week) and they never have them anymore.

Bobalicious93 · 28-09-2007 5:14pm

95 euro, game

Doodlebug · 28-09-2007 11:25pm

Well I finally went for a 2nd hand one in good nick on Ebay form the UK for STG£30. Thanks for all the info lads!

Some of these shops are really pulling a fast one - €95 in Game? Gotta love the cheek of it!
