For anyone chasing a Series S there's four in stock at $381.

Not 100% sure on the quality of EB Games refurbs, but seems like a decent way to get a Series X discounted.
Given that the consoles weren't released all that long ago, I figure they could even just be returned units that couldn't be resold

Some info on their refurbs from the listing:
To get a Preowned console ready for its new home, it first undergoes rigorous checks by our Refurbishment team.
To make sure it lives up to the awesome standard you'd expect, we:
* Perform a check on all components
* Inspect all ports and inputs
* Refurbish or replace parts to meet our standards
* Format the console and restore the system
* Give it a good clean!
On the rare chance that your console is anything less than awesome, give our Customer Service Team a call and we'll organise a free return and replacement.

    only one?

  • ce5himm on 22/08/2021 - 08:12

    That's a bargain although bought mine brand new cheaper than that.

    • mctock on 22/08/2021 - 08:35

      How?

      • ce5himm on 22/08/2021 - 08:42

        Use 10% gift card buy 15% off Xbox gift card from JB, buy console from Microsoft online using the gift card.
        A bit of extra work sadly.

        • Caped Baldy on 22/08/2021 - 09:29

          So around $574?

        • TEER3X on 22/08/2021 - 09:41

          Can this still be done?

            @TEER3X: They get sold out in under 1 min. Not worth trying to save a couple of dollarydoos and miss out.

            @TEER3X: Not everyday, you will need to stock some 10% off card when supermarkets doing that. And you will happen to wait for JB do it. And finally you need to be fast enough to score from Microsoft.

        • Guybrush57 on 22/08/2021 - 10:32

          I used the same method to get my Day 1 console.

        • bigbadboogieman on 22/08/2021 - 10:37

          Curious to know what Microsoft online page…? Last checked it was redirecting to telstra or the retailers….

        • evanoro on 22/08/2021 - 22:35

          Selling 15% off cards sounds like a really shit idea

        • F1ProjectOne on 23/08/2021 - 13:01

          Hahaha respect, you win. Biggest discount I got is paying the TCN/Ultimate GC at 10% off @ Coles with Coles 3% off GC.

    I've bought one of these a few months ago, came in the original box and was in really good condition. But then one of my friends got one which showed a bit of wear and also came with a white controller.

    Hit and miss depending on how the original owner treated their consoles. You would think most would be in decent knick though.

    Console is easily worth the ful rrp. And with 4K UI coming out it looks great would recommend this over ps5 especially with the catalogue starting next year and 2023

      I find the 1080p UI thing ridiculous lol.
      How did it even get designed in 1080p when it would’ve taken zero extra work to have the project in 8k or something

      • kudoz on 22/08/2021 - 10:33
        +9

        From recollection their thought process was that the increased memory usage of 4k and 8k UI assets didn't make sense when it could be freed to to let games use more. Guessing they've changed their minds but honestly, who cares if the dash is 1080p when you should be in game 99.9% of the time, lol

          I feel like it should just be 4K HDR so there’s no black screen when switching

  • videoman on 22/08/2021 - 08:32

    Really scummy for ebgames to take down the auction just because it was posted on ozbargain. The afterpay code wouldn't have cost them any more than a normal sale.

  • rainbowyen on 22/08/2021 - 08:40

    Bought one at $664 and got canceled a few days later, don’t give too much hope on it

  • LukeFree on 22/08/2021 - 10:08

    I’m not sure why anyone would sell it back to EB games…

    • Jackson on 22/08/2021 - 10:44

      I will have a go, kids estranged parents both trying to score points with him both rush out for Xmas and get him a series x and he ends up with 2. After a number of months he decides he'd rather swap one for a ps5, so he saved up and trades in.

      Yeah there's definitely some creative writing going on there to think of a reason why this would happen so soon

      • Smigit on 22/08/2021 - 11:25
        +2

        I don’t think they were questioning the timing, more the fact that a second hand Series X right now can likely be sold for RRP, maybe even more that RRP if still presentable.

        • LukeFree on 22/08/2021 - 17:06

          Yeah I can understand why people would want to take it back or even go for a PS5 instead!

          Just strange as because if they took it back to EB and got the full amount refunded, then EB sells this at a big loss.

          Or they trade it in and still have to pay for the PS5 because no way EB gives the full trade value back.

          I guess dealing with FB marketplace/ebay/gumtree is a pain for some people.

    • netsurfer on 22/08/2021 - 11:00

      Maybe some of these are from people who changed their mind. Tried it for a few days and didn't like it.
      Or, the real boss didn't actually approve the purchase so had to return the console.

    • Fuzor on 22/08/2021 - 13:33

      Probably get negged for this but i dont care. Someones buys an xbox series x because they are easier to buy than a ps5. Afterwards notices theres no library for Xbox and regrets not waiting for Sony. Trades it in for a ps5 upgrade.

      • Spendmore on 22/08/2021 - 17:04

        Haha oh yeah sure that's it!

      I'm looking at used PS5 consoles as I type on Facebook Marketplace. Some say they are willing to swap for an Xbox?

      How do you explain this oddity? You make it sound it's a one way swap.

      FWIW I own a PS5, XSX and Switch.

      • netsurfer on 22/08/2021 - 11:36

        Given that you have Series X and PS5, it shouldn't be difficult to think of reasons. For children, Series X might be a better choice due to GamePass. While adults are more willing to pay a game for a long period of time, some young children do like to change games.

        I own both consoles and I am concerned about the cost of PS5 games and lack of them on discount. So far, I only purchased 1 PS5 first party exclusive and while I do want to play most of those exclusives, I am not going to spend that much on those. Also, these DLC-ish add-on repackage to sell the PS5 version practice is also not a good idea.

        • Spendmore on 22/08/2021 - 12:11

          For children a switch is the best choice.

            @Spendmore: I'd argue Series S is probably better as it has a lot more 3rd & 1st party content, with Game Pass being amazing for the parents. But both are fantastic you can't go wrong with a Switch or Series S for a kid.

          • netsurfer on 22/08/2021 - 12:49

            @Spendmore: Didn't know Switch games are cheap or has a GamePass equivalent.

            Anyway, it was about why someone would swap a PS5 with a Series X. If you have a better reason, happy to hear it.

            • Spendmore on 22/08/2021 - 13:50

              @netsurfer: Sorry I thought you were supposed to write adults are more willing to pLay a game for a long period of time, I thought you had missed out the L instead of "for a".
              But yeah I agree kids will chop and change the more they have which is a shame really I don't think they get as much out of the games that way. Roblox is perfect, it has thousands of games under the one banner and my kids seem to gravitate back to that….while breath of the wild is half finished.
              As for swapping an XSX for a PS5 I can't think of a reason, if I wanted one of the odd exclusives on PS I would buy a PS5 to accompany my XSX rather than swap.

        With decent 4k tv upscaling, series s + game pass might be bang for buck still?

      • krammis76 on 22/08/2021 - 18:24

        I’ve got a 4K tv. In the lounge and bed room. I’ll use the series S for anything that doesn’t fit on my series x. :). Wasn’t much more than just buying the memory expansion.

        • mordinhoz on 22/08/2021 - 18:39
