    It makes it a terrible idea as you can cancel and reset the console whenever you like. Basically unless you know the person isn't going to do this you have just given 40 quid to a guy off the net and you have literally 0 power to stop him ripping you off. It works grand for mates, not so grand with dodgey dave.

    Yes, to use an analogy, its like buying a car from someone without transferring ownership and at any time they can report the car as stolen.

    Yeah except you don't have to report it stolen. You can just press a button and the car will come driving back to you :pac:

    For a 'quick trip to the US' to buy games from the US store, you can pay the €40 (give or take) and there's no messing or worrying about this happening.

    And with Game Sharing with a mate / family member, you can split the purchase price and only be out €20 without any of the worry if the account may be suddenly withdrawn by some unscrupulous sort.

    Problem solved and on with the XBox One Bargain alerts: GameDeal daily have Assassin's Creed Unity ($29.49) and Assassin's Creed Black Flag ($10.49) back in stock.

    Buy both games for less than €35 (game share with a mate and you're laughing :D)

    Thanks for replies!

    I ended up chancing it & got minecraft digital code off amazon.com as it was the cheapest game i could find to test. Just added a USA shipping address, redeemed it on my irish xbl account, all working sweetly :)

    Will keep an eye on the bargain alerts forum for new websites too, thanks again guys!

    Gamedealdaily.com are now offering the Assassin Creed Xbox One games even cheaper. $9.49 for Black Flag and $24.99 for Unity (in stock as I write this). Thats roughly €28.50 for both games delivered in one minute. Unbelievable, Jeff.

    Nah an irish one but I did try it on my us account and still a no go, that service alert is for the 360 and not the one although I guess it could be affected too

    I know, but since then I've had nothing but problems with connecting to live on the 360, been fine on the One though.

    Xbox One with Forza 5, Battlefield 4, Metal Gear Solid 5, Titanfall and Wolfenstein : The New Order - €406

    Shipping is ~ €10.

    The whole bundle for €416 delivered seems to be one of the best, if not the best I've seen.
