    Nice. I'm nearly hoping that my non HDMI 360 gives up at this stage so I can get myself a HDMI version. Anyone in the market for a second hand box for an Xmas present?! It's annoyingly reliable!

    Just received mine. Everything as it should be.

    Sweet. Again my thanks to OP!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,259 ✭✭✭Rowley Birkin QC


    Have my tracking number, Amazon is showing it as dispatched and dues for delivery tomorrow but no results on the An Post website!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 923 ✭✭✭markad1


    I've never seen tracking numbers updated when it hits AnPost. It will show delivered after you receive it. Useless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,259 ✭✭✭Rowley Birkin QC


    Still no updates on the tracking number.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    HMV are doing this exact same deal for €209 in-store if you missed out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,511 ✭✭✭SK1979


    HMV in blanch doesn't have that offer on anyway. Just checked. :-(

    Could also chance student discount @ 10% if you have a card too!

    Hi Sugarman,
    Do HMV still do student discounts. Saw an ad back in the summer for HMV and student discounts but when I checked with my local HMV store they knew nothing about it. Has this changed. Would go great with the offer mentioned above.

    Cheers,
    Freebee23

    Anyone else not received their Amazon box yet? They say it was dispatched to An Post, who in turn say they never got it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 101 ✭✭elsparko


    @Rowley,

    I'd say An Post have it for sure. They're a useless shower. about 2 months ago i spent a couple of hundred euro on records, dispatched from Germany by Deutsche Post with a tracking number. an post were supposed to accept the parcel in Dublin and amend the tracking number. needless to say, the trail ended in Koln when the parcel left Germany. an post swore blind that the item was never received and advised me to take legal action against the sender and to request an enquiry with Deutsche post.

    about 3 weeks later the parcel arrived. was left at my door. it was registered and was supposed to be signed for but no one ever asked me to sign for it, and to this day, the tracking number still says it left Koln, but there is absolutely no record of it with an post. i even rang them a few weeks later to check it and played dumb, and they still maintain they never received it.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,355 ✭✭✭cruhoortwunk


    Received mine today-wahoo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,888 ✭✭✭ozmo


    I have the same problem. I never got the stupid red ring of death. Waiting for it to pack up so i can get the new one.:rolleyes:

    If you are on standard composite (yellow cable+ 2 wire audio) - look out for a component cable (3 wire signal + 2 wire audio) cable - big difference.

    Some even say the colours are nicer on composite than hdmi.

    mine says they received it in the parcel depot this morning and it's "on route to customer" but the post has already come today, no chance of them doing a private style delivery no?

    EDIT: 2 minutes later and they do :)

    Did your tracking number work on AnPost.ie up to now?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,860 ✭✭✭Julez

    What comes up when you select 'track package' from your amazon account dashboard?

    "Order has been handed over to the carrier and is in transit" since last Tuesday.

    An Post deny all knowledge of it. :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,602 ✭✭✭✭Liam O


    Yeah mine worked on the An Post website.

    Very strange, it sounds like an An Post issue alright, they really don't have a clue at times, i will pobably arive in a couple of weks out of no where. Have you contacted Amazon and asked how you should proceed?

    Yup, I have to sit tight until Dec 1st. They give a maximum amount of time for An Post to deliver before they will chase it. An Post just flat out refused to do anything.
