Someone needs to tell Incredible Connection that the price cuts haven’t come into force yet.
Well I am really hoping that these new prices are going to become the standard, Incredible Connection are currently selling a Xbox 360 Pro with a free game (Halo) for an unbelievable R2799. That’s R100 more than an Arcade with no free games….
If this is the new pricing from Microsoft then I have to say that I am more than impressed, this would easily push the Arcade under the magical 2k mark and give them a huge push to win locally.
If you don’t have a 360 then now may be the best time to get one, follow the link and place your orders
It really is an incredible special…. Sorry I just couldn’t resist

When Incredible opened in Gateway last December, they sold the last of the Cores at R999.

I have seen this exact bundle in-store for R3799 two weeks ago.
@Lazy- I hope they can supply the demand 😉
Incredible seems to be cashing in one week early!!!

According the the German financial times the price cuts are due today, so I don’t know if maybe some folks are getting the announcement and the cuts mixed up.

i think the Halo and Mongoose bundles were sitting in the stores, so this is just getting rid of the stock (and a nice drawcard to get you to buy stuff from IC)
Most the ICs I’ve seen are making their XBOX games sections smaller, guess 360 isn’t doing well with them.
(yes, this is an uneducated guess)

Incredible Connection is fond of having bargain bins. As far as I know at IC Gateway, the 360 bundles eventually sold out at begining of February. Same happend at other branches in Durban.
Wait until tomorrow when the retailers in SA like GAME and DION release their pamphlets for the weekend.

@Milesh
Well, I havn’t seen any xbox360 games in bargain bins at any ICs. So that probably means they are happy with the sales.

With the mark ups they have on titles, no wonder people don’t shop there!
It is shocking what they charge!
