I reckon this is an amazing deal.

Make sure you select click and collect on the website when you preorder to get this offer.

Preorders commence online on 22nd September

Alternatively, you can get the Series S version for $299 when you trade in your Xbox One S but no one would want a stovetop.

EB world is eligible for this offer so if you are on level 4, that’s $420 off the console price itself

Note: Confirmation from EB Games rep If you place an online preorder for collection in store, you don't have to trade in until release day. Which means you can secure this deal and still use your Xbox One X until release day.

22/09/2020 8:14am: Update from EB Games Twitter Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S LAUNCH Shipment has now presold out. There will be a small shipment expected POST LAUNCH 2020. Current expected presell time of Midday AEST.

22/09/2020 7:39pm Update from EB Games Twitter We are now presold out. Thank you for your patience today.

      Same here. Ended up going to MS website.

  • jace88 on 22/09/2020 - 08:05

    Sweet got it at 8:01. Had one error upon checkout asking me to refresh/retry, and then I did and it worked.

    Haven't bought any accessories yet eg rechargable battery kit for $30. I'm thinking I might just wait and see how I go since accessories usually go on sale, and I plan to use my Xbox One Elite v2 anyway.

    • SweetLift on 22/09/2020 - 08:06

      Lucky you… I thought I was quick enough but checkout crashed hard. other websites seem OK

    EB website is chugging now.

    Err how do you do the trade-in deal?

    • jace88 on 22/09/2020 - 08:10

      It mentions you can pay the balance using various forms of payment including trade ins, and then EB has plastered the trade in value of Xbox One X everywhere with a commitment that the trade in values will be honoured until 31 January 2021.

      • DoomTrooper on 22/09/2020 - 08:13

        Righto cool Thanks mate.

  • bargainhunter on 22/09/2020 - 08:11

    • jace88 on 22/09/2020 - 08:16
      +1

      From memory it's the third option down, but you need to enter the code in, then the pin, then click verify, then agree to use the balance. It's a bit cumbersome and probably not what you want to deal with during a frenzy.

      • bargainhunter on 22/09/2020 - 08:56

        The option showed up eventually, wouldn't go through though. Cheers

    It's up on JB's site, if anyone needs a backup. Same conditions as the PS5, though (no guarantee you'll get it on release):

      Pre-orders are temporarily suspended
      Due to overwhelming demand, we’ve had to hit pause on taking any more pre-orders. Don't worry, as soon as we have more visibility on stock availability we will re-open pre-orders.

  • dbglt on 22/09/2020 - 08:13

    Now got to figure out if it's worth preordering any games or wait for a price drop hrmm. Amazon has Assasin's Creed Valhalla and Farcry 6 for $69 each, that seems pretty reasonable.

      mine went thru no probs - counter went to zero - add preorder and checked out with giftcard done in 30s.

      • TightTerry on 22/09/2020 - 08:27

        i have a feeling because you selected with gift card it was a payment channel that wasnt being hit as hard as the credit card one.

      • Benji on 22/09/2020 - 08:32

        Same here, but minus the gift card. I paid by credit card.

        I actually signed in a couple hours earlier and put down a random pre-order on Cyberpunk just to get my credit card details saved in their system. Not sure if that's what helped me here, but for me it was smooth sailing. Only the final purchase button took any time and it was all of 5 seconds. Confirmation email on gmail is showing an 8:00 AM arrival time.

        • TightTerry on 22/09/2020 - 14:56

        Yeah you're right they say that on Twitter but on their website next to the three hour timer it says release date November 10 as well as on their homepage. It looks as though Harvey Norman is only selling the Series S. Might just take a punt with JB. A shame as I wanted to take adavantage of the Xbox One X trade in deal with EB

  • parcus on 22/09/2020 - 08:27

    Got the 'too many attempts' error as well, maybe having saved card details would've worked out better?

    Can't tell if this midday drop is still launch stock or not
    edit: according to eb twitter launch is sold out, midday for 'post launch 2020' whenever that is
