XBOX 360 - Again

So, Santa came in with an XBOX 360 package (which come with the extra wireless controller), allegedly bought and paid from Sam/Wal/Scam Mart by the first Greenedy Elf, and ended up on North-Pole-Bay, where the Elves were raking in bou cou greenback.

Anyways, now the math question: Santa got it for $645, how much did the first Elf profit?


:):):)

ps: Santa is actually happy to find one for me, since Santa knows that I promised my son to have this under the tree a couple months ago. So, no harm no foul, I am just curious since the average price has come down to about $590 - $ 700 (not that I follow them closely).

Cheers.
I am sorry, I have no opinion on the matter. I am sure you do. So, don't mind me, I just want to talk audio and pie.

    nope, Cliff. I am dead serious since I am curious what kind of bundle it is, with no game included at all. Let it go, it's Christmas time! :)

    Does it have the hard drive?

    If it came with the HD, it's the premium which list for $399
    If not, it's the core and listed for $299

    Cliff, what all did your Sam's bundle come with . I was talking about the regular ole premium set, not a Sam's bundle. All I know is at Wally World, the premium set was $399.

    I read where the retail was 399.00 My sister in-laws friend who works in electronics there told me a week before that these came with the extra wireless control and battery pack kit.. otherwise the rest was standard premium stuff, HD and all... the controller runs 50 and 20 or 30 for the battery pack set i think... they didnt offer any other set besides the bundle..
