      There is more than one Toys R Us in New York.
      "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

        Re: Reports: Toys R Us now taking 360 preorders in-store

        I order the $609 bundle, why are some guys still tying to say that the $609 bundle is for the core system. My TRU tol me it was for the premium package, they also said that nobody was and would not be taking pre-orders from the core system. I' just hoping I don't go to TRU to get my bundle next week and they try to ahnd me the core system. I will be pissed...The reason I'm now thinking about it is....read below...

        If system and game were sold seperatly

        360 premium system =$399 withy tax here in NY, it will be $431
        Kameo=$59.99 with tax, $64
        Live06=$59.99 with tax $64
        Madden06=$59.99 with tax $64
        One extra Wired Controller=$39.99 with tax $44
        thats comes out to be $667, so TRU and Microsoft are losing out on $67 right, well I wouldn't say there losing, I would think the more bundles they sold the more money they make in the long run.....Do since the bundle is only $609, I just hope us guys don't try and get jerked when we pick up oyr sytems, I will be pissed.

          Well, I live in Delaware, the home of tax-free shopping!
          Kameo is actually only $49.99, not $59.99.

          360 premium - $399
          Kameo - $49.99
          Live - $59.99
          Madden - $59.99
          Wired Controller - $39.99

          Grand total of $608.96. If it were the core system, I'd be paying 100 dollars more than what the bundle would cost seperately.

            Another thing, FF. I think the bundle is $609 before tax.

                And I thought it was $609 after your $50 reserve, right? Which in essence would make it $659? Maybe I'm wrong though, since my TRU didn't have any left :y4:

                    no my balance on my card is $559, it's $609 in full. I talk to the people at TRU 3 different times and they told me they were not taking pre-orders fro the core system at all, the manager told me it was the premium system,

                        It is definitely the premium system. They don't make bundle packages to rip the consumer off. They only do it to guarantee more sales of games and accessories.

                            I'll be calling my TRU on the 21st, as well. I'm debating whether to go to a local Best Buy midnight launch, even if my TRU bundle is available. I'm just so anxious to get this thing.

                              Wow, that's a pretty good deal then. I thought it was $609 after your $50. Man, I wish I could have gotten in on that deal.

                                It's definately the premium Xbox 360. That's all TRU was offering.
