Title says it all. Just managed to come across this while searching for Dick Smith's Forza Horizon price. Seems like the same sort of screw up that Best Buy had with the NVIDIA/Metro bundle a while back. Godspeed to all who dare to deal with DS's shit for this potential bargain.

edit: Do not be surprised if they cancel your order due to it being a 'technical issue', just like they did with some of their ebay orders.

edit 2: There seems to be some contention over what they actually mean by 'token'. I ordered an xbox one bundle at some stage that did include the forza 5 token pictured above which was a download code for the full game, so I am pretty sure this is the same.

      It's a download code on a piece of cardboard

      • congo on 24/06/2014 - 12:41

        Its for the game? or for in game credits?

        • peter05 on 24/06/2014 - 12:42

          game credits to allow you to use certain cars, you get in game currency anyway but just slowly, so if you want to drive a particular car, tokens are a quick way for you to unlock a car you want to drive immediately

        • congo on 24/06/2014 - 12:45

          OK Thanks.
          I don't even have an XB1 :-P

        I think that this is actually the full game, and is priced at $0.01 due to it being part of a xbox one bundle. I don't think they actually sell the tokens (form of currency) that you're talking about outside of the game itself.

        • peter05 on 24/06/2014 - 12:44

          i'm happy to be proven wrong and will be very happy to all buyers if this deal goes ahead :)

      you may want to hold off to find out what it actually is, as the op says it could be part of an XB1 bundle and actually does represent the full game

      • beaver2233 on 24/06/2014 - 12:53

        if you look on ebay, there are multiple listings for 'download game token' which infact are the 'tokens' to download the full game. Not to mention the picture in the listing is the actual game.

    • brent3000 on 24/06/2014 - 13:03

      THis is the full game IMHO as the 'tokens' used in game cant be brought as single values (packs of 2,500 for example)

      • Garagesale on 24/06/2014 - 13:19
        +1

        Im pretty sure it was the full game.
        Pic was the same as the ones being advertised on net.
        I think they were clearing out stock that came with consoles.
        Yes tokens can be bought for in game transactions but dick smith has never sold them.

        The makers offorza created a furore withtheir microtransactions and theres a new forza out soon so i bet it will soon be a free download with xbox live gold.

    As mentioned above ,From Microsoft for one how to add cars to Forza Downloaded cars are not immediately added to your garage. You’ll still need to add the car to your garage in the game using credits or tokens.

    Bought one with the Logitech G602 mouse… I was gonna buy that anyways, so I thought since I'm paying for shipping as well, it really was only 1 cent extra. I would say "What's the worst that could happen"… but that would be famous last words… xD

  • abc on 24/06/2014 - 13:04

    Wish they would do this for GT6 as well :(

  • basicerno on 24/06/2014 - 13:05

    Looks like it is the game (i dont have a XB1 so i cant tell you) but there is another listing they have for the Titanfall bundle which this is meant to be purchased with.

    • smartazz104 on 24/06/2014 - 13:09

      On that page it says "This item can bought separately for
      $0.01", hmmm…

  • Maz78 on 24/06/2014 - 13:05

    Hmmm.. I want to buy, but even if it's for in game currency, how much am I actually buying??
    Ahh, according to the Wiki:

    ■1 Token - Vehicles under 100,000 CR
    ■2 Tokens - Vehicles over 100,000 CR and under 900,000 CR
    ■3 Tokens - Vehicles over 900,000 CR

    So I'm better off buying 30 odd tokens?
    BTW: Max to purchase = 11 (apparently)

    But won't hold my breath

  • star64 on 24/06/2014 - 13:08

    I think we can use these codes on the Xbox website also, even if we don't have an Xbox One.

  • wonderboy on 24/06/2014 - 13:08

    It is the game but Dick Smith will most likely cancel your order.

  • Maz78 on 24/06/2014 - 13:11

      mine doesn't say that :( yet…but that's promising!

      • beaver2233 on 24/06/2014 - 14:26

        maybe because I ordered 2?:/

      • Borris on 24/06/2014 - 14:22

        I've also received the shipped email.

  • Cheap Rich Guy on 24/06/2014 - 14:11

    Awesome if you get it but I reckon they left a number off the price!

  • King Steuart on 24/06/2014 - 14:21

    Even if it starts with a 4, it's still an alright price. My guess is they forgot a 6 at the start.
