Dont know if you have tried this but you could call MS and ask them if you buy an offical one from them? I hear they pretty much willingly give people replacement free headsets.

thanks i did look on ebay but to be honest thought it looked like to much of a risk getting someone elses which may have helped their 360 go pop

this option sounds like a good-un but do you know if the power supply is included in their 2 year warranty thing they give with the 360 as on thier web page i cant find diddly..

sorry to sound like a dumb*** here but does anyone have the phone number i should phone up here in the uk to try to get a replacement power supply??

found this number today 0800 5871102 hardware support ms, they could not have been more friendly . they are going to be sending me a free power supply even though mine is out of warranty . what really supprised me though was the lady saying, "seems that were lucky we dont have to send you out both units" ( xbox 360 + power supply ). i told her that our supply had blown up with a loud bang and flash. its good to see that sometimes a company can be so damn helpful but get no mention in the press of these good deeds,only faulty goods sold.still all well that ends well
