I know its US store, but with the credit can be used to buy Microsoft points (Digital Delivery) which are delivered to your email

Microsft Points from $4.99
Code is Delivered Instantly to your email

Valid for $10 credit off of a transaction for an item over $10.00 MSRP only at Microsoft online stores in US
Redeemable until June 9, 2013

UPDATE:

The promo is likely to have been suspended/cancelled due to Broden tampering with and taking advantage of the promotion

I managed to acquire roughly 10k codes so I think I'll just stock up on MS points. The last time I ordered 60+ individually shipped item (the $2 ecko jeans) my UPS guy didn't look so happy. Plus it was kinda awkward for me.

http://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=59603278&postcou…

Which forum is used for trading? I have 4000+ codes…

http://slickdeals.net/forums/showpost.php?p=59602502&postcou…

Just used the same code 3 times. No need to keep signing up….
Edit: Looks like it stopped going through after the first three.

    The link automatically redirects me to the Australian microsoft store (it detects that I'm from Aus)… where the offer isn't valid. For those being redirected, you'll need to use a us proxy.

      Did it say on the signup page that you'd receive $10 for signing up, you might have been redirected to the aus store like me?

    In true OzBargain fashion, I would like to point out that if you are buying the 800 points, go for two lots of the 400 points, and you will save 1 cent over the single 800 point purchase, leaving you with 2 cents, rather than 1 cent after the transaction :)

    • kirt on 22/05/2013 - 09:46

      Hmmm…seems you have to spend over $10 though?

    I added 3 * 400 points ($4.99) to my cart and the code would not work. Removed that and added 1 * 1200 points ($14.99) and it works though…

  • aussman on 22/05/2013 - 10:24

    points are not region free

    • Twisty on 22/05/2013 - 10:26

      So how do we use them on our Australian XBOX's?

      • kirt on 22/05/2013 - 10:29

        Pretty sure you can create a US account on your 360 and add the points to that, and whatever you buy should be available if you log out and log back in with your AUS account.

        • aussman on 22/05/2013 - 10:30

    im with AU account….

    • darthhasbro on 22/05/2013 - 12:05

      If you buy points on the US store the redemption code won't work on an AU account, you need to have a US account

  • steveau on 22/05/2013 - 10:49

    I had to pay via paypal. US store didn't like my AU credit card. PayPal is pending, saying it needs processing from Microsoft. Hope they don't cancel!

    • ShanB on 22/05/2013 - 11:03

      The US$10 is supposed to be free credit for signing up, why and for what are you paying by Paypal?

  • EggMan28 on 22/05/2013 - 11:10

    Tried to buy MS Points on that link but code didn't seem to do anything when applied. Should this be applied directly on Xbox ? Am on AU account as well.

    • johnno07 on 22/05/2013 - 11:20

      You have to spend more than $10. So get the 1200 points for $14.99 - $10 = $4.99.

      • CyberGenesys on 22/05/2013 - 11:55

        Except 1000ms points are $16.95 for Au?

        • steveau on 22/05/2013 - 11:59

          The $10 off code doesn't work on the AU store, I think.

        • CyberGenesys on 22/05/2013 - 12:00

          well crap.

          Can points bought on the US store be used on a AU account?

          No

      • CyberMurning on 22/05/2013 - 12:00

        so we need to change region to USA then buy that 1200 points, and then change back to AU region later? will the point stay with AU account?

        • CyberGenesys on 22/05/2013 - 12:02

          You can only move between Xbox LIVE regions once every 3 months.

        • steveau on 22/05/2013 - 12:11

          Points need to be paid for on the US Microsoft site, you then get US Microsoft Points, and you redeem those points on a fake US Xbox account. This is the only way. Not sure if that answers your question.

    I can't believe how ugly that new console is, I'm genuinely surprised. It's like a 90's square version of the Xbox 1

    • bonus999 on 22/05/2013 - 12:53

      it's like a 80's game console and xbox one will not support 360's games there which makes it more like 80's. :(

    • CyberGenesys on 22/05/2013 - 13:12
      +2

      I actually like that it's square, means it will not look so out of place on top of the other AV equipment. Unfortunately (so I've heard) despite having a flat top you can't stack stuff on top of it cos of air flow :(

    • Cheap Rich Guy on 22/05/2013 - 17:56

      Your PC tower is also square isn't it?
      All the high end audio components from Denon, Marantz, Pioneer etc. are also square.
      Good things come in square packages.

        Once a game is installed, if the owner wishes to use the same game disc with a second Xbox One account, he will be able to pay a fee in order to install the game on the other account using the same disc.

        Dont they realise that females also play games

      • Stanvx on 22/05/2013 - 14:43

        I don't see that as a big deal, preowned copies only ever save you $5-$10, and most of the time specials are cheaper than the preowned games anyway.

    Hard to believe this is the actual name. Xbox One is what I used to call the original Xbox after the 360 came out.

    Xbox 1 vs Playstation 4. To someone who is a noob, it will sound like it's 3 generations behind.

    • easternculture on 22/05/2013 - 14:25

      Xbox 1 vs Playstation 4.

      After i watched the Promo Video, i figured out they called it xbox ONE because it has all you entertainment needs in one box … i.e. Live TV, Media player, Skype, Cloud etc

      They may also be trying to copy HTC as they called their flagship phone HTC One: Do we see a law suit coming?

      • lostn on 23/05/2013 - 02:20

        When it's a 3 digit number, no one assumes it's referring to generations. A single digit number on the other hand…

        • cheng2008 on 23/05/2013 - 15:50

        • cheng2008 on 23/05/2013 - 16:26

          I know, but same as HTC, Microsoft is styling it as the word One rather than the number 1, to signify that it's the only one, rather than the first generation.
