From 16 March Micro$oft is offering 20% cashback on all XBOX 360 accessories bought at authorised resellers.

If you have just bought a new 360 from EB Games and traded Halo Wars, wait until the 16th of March before buying extra controllers etc.
If you got an Arcade, wait before buying a hard disk.

Web site for details and claim forms will be www.xbox.com.au/cashback

However it won't be operating until 16 March.

Similar to MicroSoft PC hardware cashbacks, the cashback amount is 20% of the RRP of the product. Therefore if you get a good deal from your retailer when you buy the accessory, you will save more than 20%.

Cheers to ADSL from Whirlpool for the heads up on this one…

    Note my comment that the link won't work until 16 March….

    This is legit, call Microsoft's support line if you want to confirm…

      Yeah, I believe it's legit.. based on the Whirlpool thread's confidence in the source.
      And I did read that it doesn't start till the 16th, but I didn't pick up that the link would be dead till the 16th (cause it doesn't say that in the post).. might want to clarify that.

  Yeah!! Time to buy the wireless adaptor, a few controllers and the charge and play packs…

  Even though the link doesn't work - its a legit deal (my microsoft contacts have confirmed and see whirlpool for further details).

      Don't waste your $$$. Get a cheap Linksys router for $50, put DD-WRT firmware on it and use it as a wireless bridge! You can even plug more devices into it to make them wireless as it has a 4 port switch on the back.

  You should change the title to have the real word Microsoft and not have "Micro$oft" because if someone searches for it in the search bar it wont return this deal and we could end up with double posts..

    MS points are not accessories. So no.

    Maybe, if you go to the offical australian xbox site, click on accessories (http://www.xbox.com/en-AU/hardware/accessories101.htm)
    you will see at the bottom a link "View All Accessories", and there you will find microsoft points cards.

    Does it matter if you buy the accessories online or do you have to buy from a b&m store?
