    You can get consoles shipped to PM, but you also need a UK billing address. So if anyone is going for it call your bank and get PM added as a temporary billing address.

    I had been eyeing the deal the last few days but when it went to €225 it gave me the excuse to go ahead and pull the trigger!

    I'm holding out until nearer christmas as I think we could see some great deals on the One S but damn they're making it hard. If it was any game other than Destiny 2 i'd bite, no interest in it.

    If you get that deal in Smyth's you could bring Destiny 2 straight to CEX and get €42 for it. So for the Console and FH3 it'll cost €183.


  • Registered Users Posts: 124 ✭✭TheYardStick


    That deal in Smyths is great!

    Traded in my OG white Xbox One to Cex for €132 - Might have gotten a few euro more selling it direct to someone on Adverts or wherever but I just wanted to get it out of the way. Got the One S in Smyths with Forza & Destiny for €225, and then went back to Cex to trade in the physical copy of Forza I already had and Destiny. Essentially upgraded my old slowing down Xbox One to a One S for €29! Happy out.

    I'd love to do this. I have the original Xbox one black 500GB and cex offer 130 for it. I don't have the original controller instead I have the white one, will they accept this I wonder? And it says nothing about prices for the Kinect.

    Would be a handy upgrade


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,309 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon


    I have an original black Xbox One but never bothered upgrading to S model as for one I did not like the white colour and now I am still on the fence if I should pick up a One X. I will pick one up eventually but maybe not day one.

    I did something similar a few months ago and my controller was the covert Microsoft one and they had no problem taking once they had the whole thing for a few hours to test it.

    Make sure you do any console updates before you drop it in as they do them other wise and it takes even longer.

    As for the connect, they sell them pretty cheap so Im sure they would take it but they only give another €10

    Yeah, they don't care so long as it comes with a working controller.

    xbox one s 1TB FIFA17 bundle is 249 in Argos - not sure how good or bad this is in comparison to other stores

    You get GTA 5 and Ark free as well. If you don't want those you can get €45 for them in CEX so your getting 1TB One S and FIFA for €205.

    Unless you're giving FIFA to a child who knows no better its obsolete at this stage with 18 coming out in two weeks.

    The online portion kind of falls off a cliff at that stage.

    At this stage the game itself has very little value.

    Folks, I assume I'm going to need that kinect adapter for the one X? Anybody know the cheapest way to pick one up?

    I'm hoping they'll announce free ones again like they had for the Xbox One S launch, would make sense.

    can i ask, what's the benefit of the kinect with the x? i thought Microsoft had pretty much dropped it

    I still find it really handy for voice commands.
