**XBOX ONE** Official Thread

ScarySquirrel said:
Wow, even if I was low enough to do something like this, I wouldn't admit to it in a public forum. You're ripping people off for your own personal gain. On top of the fact that there's now 4 less Xbox Ones at that ASDA store, no doubt leaving people who actually wanted to buy and own them disappointed because they don't have any more to sell.

Pathetic. I hope you fail to sell them and end up losing money.

This.

It's true what they say: money is the root of all evil.

nope I only have xbox ones.

I am surprised at peoples attitude to making money, dog eat dog world. If I lose money that's my risk to take, it may well be that I do. I just looked at some other auction prices to see some of these are not selling that high anyway, so somebody could actually save money don't mention that. Plus I am not disappointing anybody as they are back in circulation. Money is the route of all evil, I was taken for 3k last week by a company that will probably call themselves something new this week and start again thats ripping somebody off. You have to take any opportunity possible to make money as far as I am concerned, I am in sales and that is my life.

I am only taking what somebody is willing to pay. That's not ripping anybody off

'Willing to pay' - you're taking advantage of people who cannot buy a games console at a decent price, which in my opinion is wrong.
 
Man I think OcUK need to start banning people that just flaunt scalping on the boards - its deplorable whichever way you look at it. I dont see what value such people would add to here, so why have them here at all...

I can't understand what reaction other than the one he's got he expected from this forum :confused:

I hate people that do this, to grab 4 really is nasty. Ocuk doesn't allow profiteering on the members market so why do we allow all this willy waving every release day?

Now did I say permaban ;). I think its quite obvious what reaction you are gonna get in a thread where people are trying to get a new console and then flaunt youve bought up multiples purely for profiteering - it seems to fall under trolling as far as Im concerned...

So we could say all the negativity you posted in this thread, knowing the reaction it would get would fall under trolling?
 
Don't blame him to be fair. Bringing the bread to the table.

I do think people should only be limited to 2 consoles per sale with some kind of ID system in place. Write down name and address from driving licence/passport.

Still waiting for my Xbox One. Doing my head in now, hate waiting for things. Nowhere has them in stock around here at all. What makes it ever worse is Very have been emailing me twice a day, getting my hopes up hoping its a dispatched email, never is though :(

go to Asda, seriously they said they are coming in daily now. I stood there in the shop when I saw the man walk out with two and checked online to see if the reserve system was up but it just said all xbox ones are sold out check back for more info. so the website is lies

And that's a couple of kids not getting what they want for Christmas.

Again, Booooooooo!

Good, kids could do with not getting everything they desire :p

Good on him, he takes the risk and it's not like ocuk haven't done the same in the past profiteering on the rrp of low stock consoles or hardware. No one forces anyone at gun point to pay the prices.

If someone is that sad they can't wait a month for stock tough ****. Learn patience.

Because lazy indecisive people that didn't pre-order like to blame others when they can't get it NOW!

It's not always the case, you could preorder from a company that promise you this and that and then not get any stock in or 'there were complications with how much stock we were allocated' and then you're back at square 1.

Which is what happened with me, they told me Januray so I sourced a One only to find they despatched it the next day. Idiots.
