Re: whats all this worth

It depends what the three games are and whether the charge station and rechargeable batteries are official or third party.

You might want to check cex.co.uk for an idea of what it's all worth. Considering it's possible to buy a brand new premium with possibly a game thrown in for as little as £200 you might not get a whole lot.

Re: whats all this worth

I would say you're probably looking at around £220-240 at most for all that.

I'm not sure if they included a game or not but Boots were selling them for £199.99. There are several places also seliing it with two games for around £280 and usually pretty decent games. Basically you get the games for free.

Re: whats all this worth

I recently bought a new Xbox Premium from Game with Harry Potter and Forza 2 for £279.99 (earned nearly a tenner in points as well).

Used it for 2 weeks - base console only as mine was away for repair - then sold the lot on eBay.

£210 for Console
£30 for Harry Potter
£30 for Forza

eBay fees cost about £10 altogether. So I got £260 for basic premium and 2 games on Ebay.

If I accounted for the reward points the 'hire' cost me £10. However I managed to wangle 2 games and a 3 month Live sub out of MS by being a bit of a stroppy customer - so made a profit on the deal.

However I have seen Premiums on there own go for as low as £150 on Ebay as well - so there is a risk.
