    Best Buy rip off!!

    bought a core 360 from them at launch,it broke,i sent it in,got a gift card with the amount on it.....proplem is that no best buys carry the core systems anymore and now if i want a 360 i have to buy a premium,when i've already bought sepretly the harddrive and hd cables.So ill have to spend and extra 150 on crap i've already bought,y in the hell would they offer a re-placement plane if they dont even plane on carying the idem after a couple of months!!?

    Tell them to open up a premium system, detach the HD, and give you the system.

        It sounds like a logical fix to your problem. I'd definitely recommend bringing it to their attention.

          I was at Best Buy yesterday, they had cores. At least the Best Buy's by me do.

                  You can't afford the $150?? Not pushing you to do it but it's a thought. It's kind of worth it.......

                    I think this might be the best route if they don't exchange for the console (prem). Then he should take the new HDD and Cables to sell on ebay.

                        You'd throw away 150 bucks for no reason? Even if you recover part of it on Ebay, that's such a waste of cash.

                        I'd push for them to order one in, and might as well give up the option to disassemble a premium, but that's unlikely to fly. If you're just talking to a low-level employee, I'd start moving up the chain if they don't cave. I'd be pretty upset if they wanted me to pay an extra 150 bucks for extras I already had.

                              that is a rip off. you should go to the store where you bought it and speak witht he manager. He should be able to work out something.
